Category label and response location shifts in category learning
The category shift literature suggests that rule-based classification, an important form of explicit learning, is mediated by two separate learned associations: a stimulus-to-label association that associates stimuli and category labels, and a label-to-response association that associates category labels and responses. Three experiments investigate whether information-integration classification...
متن کاملRepresentational Shifts During Category Learning
Prototype and exemplar models form two extremes in a class of mixture model accounts of human category learning. This class of models allows flexible representations that can interpolate from simple prototypes to highly differentiated exemplar accounts. We apply one such framework to data that afford an insight into the nature of representational changes during category learning. While generall...
متن کاملDimensional Relevance Shifts in Category Learning
A category learning experiment involving human participants compared the dif® culties of four types of shift learning. Initial learning was of an exclusive-or (XOR) structure on two of three stimulus dimensions. One shift type was a reversal, a second shift was to a single previously relevant dimension, a third shift was to a single previously irrelevant dimension, and a fourth shift was to an ...
متن کاملAmbiguity produces attention shifts in category learning.
It has been suggested that people and nonhuman animals protect their knowledge from interference by shifting attention toward the context when presented with information that contradicts their previous beliefs. Despite that suggestion, no studies have directly measured changes in attention while participants are exposed to an interference treatment. In the present experiments, we adapted a dot-...
متن کاملAre there representational shifts during category learning?
Early theories of categorization assumed that either rules, or prototypes, or exemplars were exclusively used to mentally represent categories of objects. More recently, hybrid theories of categorization have been proposed that variously combine these different forms of category representation. Our research addressed the question of whether there are representational shifts during category lear...
