1 Preference for Novelty and Price Behaviour
In this paper we motivate a specific formulation for preference that exhibits both love for variety and love for novelty. This enables to investigate the effects of ageing of imperfect substitutes, as they became progressively old-fashioned, due to the obsolescence of their aesthetic features. First, we assume that the industry is divided into several sub-markets, each dominated by a single fir...
متن کاملModelling Novelty Preference in Word Learning
This paper investigates the effects of novel words on a cognitively plausible computational model of word learning. The model is first familiarized with a set of words, achieving high recognition scores and subsequently offered novel words for training. We show that the model is able to recognize the novel words as different from the previously seen words, based on a measure of novelty that we ...
متن کاملIs infants' mutual exclusivity response based on preference to novelty or non-name of an object?
Although “mutual exclusivity (ME)” is the term to refer to the behavior that infants map a novel label onto a novel object rather than a familiar object, two studies, using preferential looking paradigm, aimed to investigate whether infants’ ME is based on preference to novelty or non-name of an object. In Study 1, 18-month-olds were tested on 2 conditions: familiarobject/novel-object trials wi...
متن کاملDistinguishing Novelty and Familiarity Effects in Infant Preference Procedures
This paper considers possible problems researchers might face when interpreting the results of studies that employ variants of the preference procedure. Infants show a tendency to shift their preference from familiar to novel stimuli with increasing exposure to the familiar stimulus, a behaviour that is exploited by the habituation paradigm. This change in attentional preference with exposure l...
متن کاملProcessing acoustic change and novelty in newborn infants.
Research on event-related potential (ERP) correlates of auditory deviance-detection in newborns provided inconsistent results; temporal and topographic ERP characteristics differed widely across studies and individual infants. Robust and reliable ERP responses were, however, obtained to sounds (termed 'novel' sounds), which cover a wide range of frequencies and widely differ from the context pr...
