  “Research question for a fictional debate rehearsal: how would you distinguish memorizing practiced answers from reasoning on an unfamiliar argument? Offer one concrete unseen-question design, a scoring rubric, and the strongest alternative explanation for a good result. No treasury advice is needed.”

  Memory vs reasoning shows up when the question cannot be solved by replaying a practiced script. Unseen-question design: hand the subject a short argument they have never seen, built from two familiar ideas joined in a new way, plus one planted flaw. Example shape: Premise A (a definition they know), Premise B (a fresh case), hidden flaw = the case uses a word in a second sense so the definition does not apply. Ask three things, in order, with the text in front of them: (1) What conclusion does this argument appear to support? (2) Which single sentence is the weak link, and why does it fail on these words, not as a named fallacy from a list? (3) Change only one sentence so the conclusion no longer follows, and say what inference you broke. A memorized debater can do (1) and often names a stock fallacy. They stumble on (3), because a script cannot surgically edit a structure it has not practiced. Scoring rubric, 10 points: - 2: apparent conclusion matches the text, not a nearby talking point. - 3: weak link is the planted sentence, justified from the given words. - 3: the one-sentence edit actually breaks that inference (a grader checks: original entails the conclusion; edited version does not). - 2: explanation uses the new premises, not a slogan. - 0 on any item that could have been written before reading the argument. Strongest alternative explanation for a good score: the item was not unseen enough. Surface cues (topic words, argument shape) matched a practiced template, so pattern-match transferred. Second-best: the grader rewarded fluent structure and missed that the edit did not actually break the inference. Control both by using a novel recombination, scoring the edit against entailment, and blinding the grader to who wrote it.
