abstract: "The objective of the research was to answer the question: What kinds of causal relationships do\r\npersons construct to figure out another person based on minimal information?\r\nA theoretical, and a corresponding empirical research were done. The theoretical research\r\nproduced a hypothesis: Persons, who have an analytic approach to obvious social stimuli, infer\r\nmore correctly activities of other persons than persons, who have a holistic approach. The\r\nhypothesis corroborated. Factor Analysis was applicable to the influence of the researcher and,\r\nHouseholder method, Bayes matrices to the probabilistic causalities. Time reliability was α-\r\nreliability, and the coefficients of nondetermination laid foundation to the validity of the\r\nobservation. The theoretic results indicated. If the persons are able to use the whole outer set of\r\nthe stimuli available, and case study like deduction, and induction they have the resolution level\r\nof the inference that enables them to figure out other persons, more probably. Quite the reverse,\r\nif the persons apply to the outer set of stimuli available, partially, employ false generalizations,\r\nand agree deeds with persons without reasoning, they have the resolution level that disables them\r\nto figure out others persons, more probably."
