Quantity inferences in conditionals: a pilot experimental study [pdf]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Relying upon Fillenbaum (1975), the paper reports on a more systematic experimental study of the role of the following factors (and levels) in the derivation of Conditional Perfection: negation (no negation, negation in an antecedent, negation in a consequent, negation both in an antecedent and a consequent), order of two clauses of a conditional sentence (if p, q; q, if p), and face vs. non-face speech acts (promises, threats vs. causals, temporals and contingent universals).
