类别学习的神经心理学研究

类别学习的神经心理学研究是检验类别学习理论的一种有效研究范式，它有助于我们对类别学习理论的深入理解，以及对认知活动过程和脑机制的认识。作者对基底神经节功能障碍患者、遗忘症患者和其他类型的神经症患者的类别学习研究进行了回顾，对这些研究可能存在的单系统理论和多系统理论解释进行了讨论，并指出了研究中可能存在的取样偏差问题和未来研究中需要在研究手段、研究设计、被试取样等方面加以改进的建议

A Neuropsychological Approach to Category Learning

The neuropsychological approach to category learning is an effective pattern to identify theories in category learning. It can not only help us to understand and explore the category learning theories, but also help us to know about cognitive process and brain function. We reviewed the researches to category learning that the patients suffering from basal ganglia, such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and amnesia, and other nervous dysfunction conducted. We discussed the single-system and multiple-systems theories about interpreting these learning. We pointed out some problems about sampling in these researches, and some suggestions about which need to be improved in the research means, design, and sampling. We hoped that these suggestions can give future researches some help to category learning
