Any recommendations for introductory overviews of cognitive models of categorisation (e.g. prototype theory. exemplar theory, etc.)?
I’m trying to develop a high-level view of how people go wrong when reasoning about groups. I understand this well enough from the positions of statistical inference and categorical logic. What I’m looking for is convenient literature on theories of how human brains put objects into categories.

Thanks—I hadn’t heard of exemplar theory.
I don’t have an answer, but I would like to second this request.
