El objetivo de este artículo es analizar la relevancia de la psicología del razonamiento deductivo para el debate sobre la normatividad de la lógica. Presento tres teorías psicológicas que, a su modo, distinguen entre inferencias lógicas “fáciles” y “difíciles”. Luego, argumento que algunas de las dificultades más comunes para entender la normatividad de la lógica pueden resolverse usando estas distinciones. Concluyo que es posible un diálogo virtuoso entre la psicología del razonamiento y la normatividad de la lógica.
