Abstract
This paper presents a normative study on the use of conditionals in written language. A sample of texts (total length 450.000 words) originally written in Spanish was used. A total of 408 conditionals were found. We analyzed the quality of the conditionals as simple indicative, biconditionals, counterfactual, deontic (obligations, permissions, etc.) or causal, and tested the frequency of use for each of these types of conditionals. For each of them, we also tested the order as direct (antecedent-consequent) or reverse (consequent-antecedent), and the use of negations in each of the components. The results were compared to the predictions of the main current theories of reasoning.
