The articles in this issue of the journal are the continuation of the previous issue's exploration into the role of causality in understanding stories, drawing on recent research in the cognitive sciences. They capture causality as a mental construct through which we establish a causal relationship between two or more variables. They explore how different genres, story types, and narrative styles operate causal reasoning processes in conjunction with other mechanisms that shape artistic composition. The papers in our journal take a variety of approaches to the relevance of causal cognition, and most of the papers in this volume approach the questions of causality from the perspective of a particular theoretical approach.
