Inductive inferences, centered in semantic memory, play an important role in our everyday lives and in science, enabling us to generalize and predict. However, epistemologists have struggled to find a way to understand and justify induction and the knowledge it provides without making it seem paradoxical or problematic. Traditional approaches have used a propositional perspective focusing on certa
