Mathematical Principles of Human Conceptual Behavior
The ability to learn concepts lies at the very core of human cognition, enabling us to efficiently classify, organize, identify, and store complex information. In view of the basic role that concepts play in our everyday physical and mental lives, the fields of cognitive science and psychology face three long standing challenges: discovering the laws that govern concept learning and categorization behavior in organisms, showing how they inform other areas of cognitive research, and describing them with the mathematical systematicity and precision found in the physical sciences. In light of these theoretical and methodological shortcomings, this volume will introduce a set of general mathemat...
Mathematical Principles of Human Conceptual Behavior
The fields of cognitive science and psychology face three long standing challenges: discovering the laws that govern concept learning and categorization behavior in organisms, showing how they inform other areas of cognitive research, and describing them with the mathematical systematicity and precision found in the physical sciences. This volume will introduce a set of general mathematical principles for predicting and explaining conceptual behavior based on seven fundamental constructs of universal science: invariance, complexity, information, similarity, dissimilarity, pattern, and representation.
Mathematical Models of Perception and Cognition Volume II
In this two volume festschrift, contributors explore the theoretical developments (Volume I) and applications (Volume II) in traditional cognitive psychology domains, and model other areas of human performance that benefit from rigorous mathematical approaches. It brings together former classmates, students and colleagues of Dr. James T. Townsend, a pioneering researcher in the field since the early 1960s, to provide a current overview of mathematical modeling in psychology. Townsend’s research critically emphasized a need for rigor in the practice of cognitive modeling, and for providing mathematical definition and structure to ill-defined psychological topics. The research captured demonstrates how the interplay of theory and application, bridged by rigorous mathematics, can move cognitive modeling forward.

The Animal Mind
The study of animal cognition raises profound questions about the minds of animals and philosophy of mind itself. Aristotle argued that humans are the only animal to laugh, but in recent experiments rats have also been shown to laugh. In other experiments, dogs have been shown to respond appropriately to over two hundred words in human language. In this introduction to the philosophy of animal minds Kristin Andrews introduces and assesses the essential topics, problems and debates as they cut across animal cognition and philosophy of mind. She addresses the following key topics: what is cognition, and what is it to have a mind? What questions should we ask to determine whether behaviour has ...
The Creation of Scientific Psychology
Facilitates a rapprochement between psychology and physics. Brings measurement and mathematics into the study of the mind. This detailed and engaging account fills a deep gap in the history of psychology.
Invariances in Human Information Processing
Invariances in Human Information Processing examines and identifies processing universals and how they are implemented in elementary judgemental processes. This edited collection offers evidence that these universals can be extracted and identified from observing law-like principles in perception, cognition, and action. Addressing memory operations, development, and conceptual learning, this book considers basic and complex meso- and makro-stages of information processing. Chapter authors provide theoretical accounts of cognitive processing that may offer tools for identification of functional components in brain activity in cognitive neuroscience
Căutarea, extragerea, organizarea și evaluarea informațiilor
InformaÈ›ia, ca È™i concept, include o mare diversitate de sensuri în contexte diferite, de la cele zilnice până la cele tehnice. Conceptul de informaÈ›ie este strâns legat de noÈ›iunile de restricÈ›ie, comunicare, control, date, forme, educaÈ›ie, cunoaÈ™tere, înÈ›elegere, stimul mental, model, percepÈ›ie, È™i reprezentare. InformaÈ›ia este orice reÈ›ea care influenÈ›ează formarea sau transformarea altor reÈ›ele. ȘtiinÈ›a informaÈ›iei se ocupă de analiza, colectarea, clasificarea, manipularea, stocarea, extragerea È™i diseminarea informaÈ›iei. Căutarea informaÈ›iilor se realizează prin crearea de sisteme pentru găsirea documentelor sau a informaÈ›iilor. Colectarea informaÈ›iilor Ã...
Kommunikation, Interaktion und soziale Gruppenprozesse
Der Band behandelt die Themen Kommunikation, Interaktion und soziale Gruppenprozesse. In 33 Kapiteln stellen Expertinnen und Experten aus dem Gebiet Theorien und aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse umfassend und differenziert dar. Der Schwerpunkt liegt einerseits auf grundlegenden Themen wie soziale Repräsentation, soziale Interdependenz, soziale geteilte Realität und Autoritätsgehorsam. Andererseits werden theoretische Modelle in Bezug auf Kooperation und Wettbewerb, Kommunikation, Entscheidung in Gruppen und Intergruppenprozesse dargestellt. Anwendungsaspekte werden ausführlich behandelt, wie Konflikt und Konfliktlösung, Mediation, Solidarität, Mentoring, Verhandeln, Vertrauen, Werbekommunikation und Rassismus. Neben klassischen Forschungsthemen wie Macht, Führung, Gruppenleistung werden auch neue Forschungsgebiete wie Innovation, Globalisierung und Internetnutzung ausführlich behandelt. Der Band bietet für Studierende, Lehrende und Forschende eine umfassende und aktuelle Darstellung der wichtigen sozialpsychologischen Themen Kommunikation, Interaktion und Gruppenprozesse.
