The idea that categorization decisions rely on subjective impressions of similarities between stimuli has been prevalent in
much of the literature over the past 30 years and has led to the development of a large number of models that apply some kind
of decision rule to similarity measures. A recent article by Smith (2006) has argued that thesesimilarity—choice models of categorization have a substantial design flaw, in which the similarity and the choice components effectively cancel
one another out. As a consequence of this cancellation, it is claimed, the relationship between distance and category membership
probabilities is linear in these models. In this article, I discuss these claims and show mathematically that in those cases
in which it is sensible to discuss the relationship between category distance and category membership at all, the function
relating the two is approximately logistic. Empirical data are used to show that a logistic function can be observed in appropriate
contexts. 相似文献

An analysis of the “response scaling” parameter in the Generalized Context Model is presented. In light of the existing debate over the behavior of the model when this parameter is included, three different interpretations are discussed, in order to illustrate the effect of the parameter at the decision level, the category similarity level, and the representational structure level. 相似文献

The aims of this study are to consider the experience of flow from a nonlinear dynamics perspective. The processes and temporal
nature of intrinsic motivation and flow, would suggest that flow experiences fluctuate over time in a dynamical fashion. Thus
it can be argued that the potential for chaos is strong. The sample was composed of 20 employees (both full and part time)
recruited from a number of different organizations and work backgrounds. The Experience Sampling Method (ESM) was used for
data collection. Once obtained the temporal series, they were subjected to various analyses proper to the complexity theory
(Visual Recurrence Analysis and Surrogate Data Analysis). Results showed that in 80% of the cases, flow presented a chaotic
dynamic, in that, flow experiences delineated a complex dynamic whose patterns of change were not easy to predict. Implications
of the study, its limitations and future research are discussed. 相似文献

Do Additional Features Help or Hurt Category Learning? The Curse of Dimensionality in Human Learners
The curse of dimensionality, which has been widely studied in statistics and machine learning, occurs when additional features cause the size of the feature space to grow so quickly that learning classification rules becomes increasingly difficult. How do people overcome the curse of dimensionality when acquiring real‐world categories that have many different features? Here we investigate the possibility that the structure of categories can help. We show that when categories follow a family resemblance structure, people are unaffected by the presence of additional features in learning. However, when categories are based on a single feature, they fall prey to the curse, and having additional irrelevant features hurts performance. We compare and contrast these results to three different computational models to show that a model with limited computational capacity best captures human performance across almost all of the conditions in both experiments. 相似文献

The present research focuses on the design and testing of a training program in learning strategies for Mathematics in Higher Education students. This research displays a quasiexperimental-sequential design with a non-equivalent control group. The research aims at revealing the effect of this training program both on the student's competence in learning strategies and on academic performance in this curricular area. There have been 176 students taking part in this research (74 students forming the experimental group and 72 forming the control group). The obtained results permit to assess the program efficiency as regards both trained strategies handling and specific performance improvement. 相似文献

Featural representations of similarity data assume that people represent stimuli in terms of a set of discrete properties.
In this article, we consider the differences in featural representations that arise from making four different assumptions
about how similarity is measured. Three of these similarity models— the common features model, the distinctive features model,
and Tversky’s seminal contrast model—have been considered previously. The other model is new and modifies the contrast model
by assuming that each individual feature only ever acts as a common or distinctive feature. Each of the four models is tested
on previously examined similarity data, relating to kinship terms, and on a new data set, relating to faces. In fitting the
models, we have used the geometric complexity criterion to balance the competing demands of data-fit and model complexity.
The results show that both common and distinctive features are important for stimulus representation, and we argue that the
modified contrast model combines these two components in a more effective and interpretable way than Tversky’s original formulation. 相似文献

Resilience refers to the process by which individuals use the ability to cope with challenges to successfully adapt to adverse situations, inclining towards the future and hope. The main aim of this study was to analyze the relation between resilience, personality traits, and hopelessness. Furthermore, we conducted comparisons between two age groups: young and older adults. The sample comprised 439 Spanish participants (66.7% women; M = 43.73, SD = 26.41; age range = 18–98 years). The Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale, NEO-Five Factor Inventory, and Beck Hopelessness Scale were used to measure the main study variables. The results revealed a negative relation between resilience and neuroticism, and a positive association with the other personality traits. Additionally, levels of resilience were found to be negatively related to hopelessness. The group of older adults showed significantly lower resilience levels than the young adults, although age was not a significant predictor of resilience. Neuroticism, extraversion, openness, and hopelessness were the only predictors of resilience for the current study. This work contributes to the study of resilience and related factors, by attempting to understand the role of resilience and resistance to risk and how individuals tackle challenges over time, with important implications for mental health. 相似文献

Amisulpride is a substituted benzamide derivative that acts as a selective dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist. Although the anti‐aggressive properties of neuroleptic drugs are well known, the effects of amisulpride on agonistic interactions have not been explored, and there are no studies comparing acute and subchronic effects of this compound on aggression in rodents. In this study, we examined the action of amisulpride (5–25 mg/kg, i.p), administered acutely or subchronically for 10 days, on agonistic behavior elicited by isolation in male mice. Individually housed mice were exposed to anosmic "standard opponents" 30 min after drug administration, and the encounters were videotaped and evaluated using an ethologically based analysis. After acute treatment, amisulpride (5–20 mg/kg) exhibited an ethopharmacological profile characterized by a marked decrease of offensive behaviors (threat and attack) without an impairment of motor activity. By contrast, the anti‐aggressive action of the highest dose used (25 mg/kg) was accompanied by a weak increase of immobility. Body care was also significantly enhanced after treatment with the drug (20 and 25 mg/kg), emphasizing the involvement of dopaminergic receptors in this behavior. After subchronic treatment, no tolerance to amisulpride anti‐aggressive activity was observed. Overall, this behavioral profile is similar to that observed by other atypical neuroleptics. Aggr.

Animal research plays a central role in psychology, and its use, prevalence and quality depends on the attitudes of students who enter psychology in Spain. Attitudes among psychology students about the use of laboratory animals are not known, so the aim of this work was to analyze the attitudes of Spanish psychology students toward animal research. An attitude questionnaire of 15 items was given to 661 undergraduate students of the School of Psychology at the University of Málaga, Spain. Several results were found: (a) 65.7% of the respondents strongly agreed or agreed with animal research. General support for animal research was significantly higher by men than by women. (b) Support for animal research was higher for senior students, suggesting that the psychology curriculum or self-selection to remain in the program might influence students' attitudes. (c) Attitudes toward animal research were similar among students independent of the type of animal being used for research in biological or psychological studies. (d) 58% considered that laboratory animals never or almost never are inappropriately handled. (c) 55.6% indicated that research in psychology on animals could be generalized to humans. Overall, these results suggest that among Spanish psychology students animals research is considered important for the advancement of the science. Likewise, a majority of students displayed positive attitudes toward animal research. 相似文献
