Lägg i varukorg
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 …
Multidimensional Models of Perception and Cognition
Inbunden, 1992
2454 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The mental representations of perceptual and cognitive stimuli vary on many dimensions. In addition, because of quantal fluctuations in the stimulus, spontaneous neural activity, and fluctuations in arousal and attentiveness, mental events are characterized by an inherent variability. During the …

Sensation and Judgment
Complementarity Theory of Psychophysics
Inbunden, 1996
2454 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Psychophysical theory exists in two distinct forms -- one ascribes the explanation of phenomena and empirical laws to sensory processes. Context effects arising through the use of particular methods are an unwanted nuisance whose influence must be eliminated so that one isolates the "true" sensory …
Signal Detection Theory and ROC Analysis in Psychology and Diagnostics
Collected Papers
Inbunden, 1996
2454 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Signal detection theory--as developed in electrical engineering and based on statistical decision theory--was first applied to human sensory discrimination 40 years ago. The theoretical intent was to provide a valid model of the discrimination process; the methodological intent was to provide …
