In a version of the Wason's four-card task, participants are told, "If a person wishes to drink alcohol, the person must be over 21 years old." Participants are then asked which cases they would need to investigate in order to determine whether the rule is being followed. Given the available evidence, we should expect that participants will reason:
A) well in testing this rule because participants always reason well when given the Wason's four-card task, regardless of its context
B) well in testing this rule because it is likely to be understood in terms of permission
C) poorly with this rule because the rule is based on a conditional statement
D) poorly with this rule because they are likely to blur the rule together with other similar cases they have encountered
