Abstract	From the theory of mental models, it has been proposed that the sentences with ‘if’ can refer to ten different interpretations. Those interpretations are related to the situations in which their clauses are possible. On the other hand, a study suggests that two of those interpretations seem to predominate in academic psychology texts: the conditional and biconditional interpretations, that is, those that logic links to ‘if’. Using sentences from two Women’s History papers, the present work shows a new study trying to move forward in this direction. It also addresses the importance of how historical inquiries relating to women in different contexts can reveal the possible clauses used in their drafting and interpretation. The results are not very different from the previous study. The consequences related to the predominant tendency to the use of ‘if’ as a conditional or biconditional in human and social sciences are discussed.
