Category names as cues for the recall of category instances

Will a Category Cue Affect You? Category Cues, Positive Stereotypes and Reviewer Recall for Applicants

Most empirical research on stereotypes and recall has examined how a single social category of a target can influence a perceiver’s recall. Will subtle cues of one or another social category of a target lead reviewers to markedly different recall? In this study one of two social categories of an applicant was subtly cued for reviewers – gender or ethnicity. Common cultural stereotypes hold that...

On the category of geometric spaces and the category of (geometric) hypergroups

‎In this paper first we define the morphism between geometric spaces in two different types‎. ‎We construct two categories of $uu$ and $l$ from geometric spaces then investigate some properties of the two categories‎, ‎for instance $uu$ is topological‎. ‎The relation between hypergroups and geometric spaces is studied‎. ‎By constructing the category $qh$ of $H_{v}$-groups we answer the question...

The Category-Order Effect in Supraspan Recall

The category-order effect is observed when stimuli from a small, homogenous category are presented before a large, heterogeneous category (Greene & Lasek, 1994). Schoenherr and Thomson (2008) determined that the category-order effect was a product of the phonotactic properties of the category, facilitating recall in situations that were not consistent with Greene and Lasek’s account. In the pre...

The category of monoid actions in Cpo

In this paper, some categorical properties of the category ${bf Cpo}_{{bf Act}text{-}S}$ of all {cpo $S$-acts}, cpo's equipped with actions of a monoid $S$ on them, and strict continuous action-preserving maps between them is considered. In particular, we describe products and coproducts in this category, and consider monomorphisms and epimorphisms. Also, we show that the forgetful functor from...
