| Challenge: | Large Reasoning Models generate explicit reasoning traces alongside final answers . the extent to which these traces influence answer generation remains unclear . |
| Approach: | They conduct empirical evaluation of Large Reasoning Models that include explicit reasoning . they also show that answer tokens attend substantially to reasoning tokens . |
| Outcome: | The results show that including explicit reasoning improves answer quality across domains . they also show that answer tokens attend substantially to reasoning tokens - the authors . |
