Hypotheticals
This article isn't going to go on and on about IQ and how it effects the random individule's ability to deal with Hypotheticals. That has been gone over before and everybody gets mad. "Hur dur, IQ deals with how a person reacts at a given time under a certain set of conditions, hur."
So what I am going to talk about are the various Hypotheticals that I know of and how they work. Additionally, these Hypotheticals are closely related to Inner Monologue and how the normal human brain discusses things with itself to solve problems while NPCs can't function at all.
Introduction
A long time ago, an anonymous online poster discussed Hypothetical Conditions with several other people. This poster explained how various forms of hypothetical thinking were studied by a group who used prison inmates as their subjects.[1]
