The instantiation principle in natural categoriesE Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK
Memory 4:413-51. 1996..All of these results support the instantiation principle, indicating that subjects incorporate detailed information about category instances into their representations of categories...- Strategic processes in false recognition memoryEvan Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, England
Psychon Bull Rev 11:380-6. 2004..However, the participants were able to exaggerate this effect in the inclusion condition. The results are discussed in terms of the role of strategic processing in recognition memory... - Adaptive changes of response criterion in recognition memoryEvan Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, England
Psychon Bull Rev 10:718-23. 2003..Theoretical and methodological implications for recognition memory research are discussed... - Relations between premise similarity and inductive strengthEvan Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, England
Psychon Bull Rev 12:340-4. 2005..It is concluded that the evidence regarding the predicted nondiversity-by-property-reinforcement effect does not give distinctive support for relevance theory, although this theory does address other results... - Modeling the effects of prior knowledge on learning incongruent features of category membersEvan Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 30:1065-81. 2004..The results were simulated with the Baywatch model, which addresses how observations of category members lead to recruitment and selection of sources of prior knowledge... - Diversity-based reasoning in childrenE Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
Cogn Psychol 43:243-73. 2001..Relations to cross-cultural work and models of induction are discussed... - Putting together prior knowledge, verbal arguments, and observations in category learningE Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, England
Mem Cognit 29:828-37. 2001..The results supported the idea that verbally presented arguments can be treated in a similar manner as other forms of prior knowledge, from the perspective of applying models of categorization... - Properties of inductive reasoningE Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, England
Psychon Bull Rev 7:569-92. 2000..In addition, future directions for experimental and model-based work are proposed... - Influences of prior knowledge on selective weighting of category membersE Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 24:712-31. 1998..In comparison, when study time was more limited, revision proceeded in a Bayesian manner, in that congruent and incongruent observations had equal impacts... - Category content and structure in schizophrenia: an evaluation using the instantiation principleBrita Elvevåg
Clinical Brain Disorders Branch, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Neuropsychology 19:371-80. 2005..In conclusion, the authors suggest that the content and organization of categories in patients with schizophrenia is similar to that in healthy control participants... - Relations among categorization, induction, recognition, and similarity: comment on Sloutsky and Fisher (2004)Evan Heit
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Gen 134:596-605; discussion 606-611. 2005..It is also unclear whether the SINC model can account for the observed relations between similarity and recognition. Implications for future work on induction and related cognitive activities are discussed... - Nonmonotonic extrapolation in function learningLewis Bott
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 30:38-50. 2004..Participants were shown to extrapolate from these training data in a nonmonotonic way, contrary to predictions from EXAM. A new model of function learning is presented, which predicts responses more accurately than EXAM... - Feature-sampling and random-walk models of individual-stimulus recognitionKoen Lamberts
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Gen 132:351-78. 2003..The random-walk model provided the better account of the results from the 3 experiments. The implications of the results for process models of recognition are discussed... - Perceptual processes in matching and recognition of complex picturesKoen Lamberts
Department of Psychology, University of Warwick, Coventry, Warwickshire, United Kingdom
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 28:1176-91. 2002..The results demonstrated that it is possible to predict speeded recognition performance from performance in perceptual matching. A simple stochastic feature-sampling model provides a unified account of the data from the 4 experiments... - Ad hoc category restructuringDaniel R Little
University of Western Australia, Crawley, Western Australia
Mem Cognit 34:1398-413. 2006..We present a computational model of the trade-off between preexperimental knowledge and experimental learning that accounts for the main results... - Why learning and development can lead to poorer recognition memoryBrett K Hayes
School of Psychology, University of New South Wales, Sydney, N S W 2052, Australia
Trends Cogn Sci 8:337-9. 2004..This method has the potential to constrain models of induction in novel ways, although there are still important challenges...
