Computational Neurolinguistics - What Is It All About?

Computational Neurolinguisties (CN) integrates a r t i f i c i a l intel l igence (AI) methods with concepts of neurally motivated processing to develop cognitive models of natural language processing. HOPE is one example of a model developed to address issues in CN. The model is pa ra l l e l , and exemplifies language as the result of time synchronized processes which are asynchronous in natu...

What can we know about ourselves and how do we know it?

Recent developments in cognitive neuroscience radically changed the perspective on understanding human nature. For the first time in history many philosophical questions can be placed on scientific, rather than on philosophical grounds. These questions include understanding of the mind, self, free will, religious and cultural beliefs, morality, politics and social organization. Scientific conse...

What do We Know about Natural Diets and how do We Know it?

The care and feeding of primates in captivity, be they human or other, seems based on a somewhat limited scientific basis. Observation of pathologies or limitations that have been related to nutritional or metabolic “misadventures” perhaps has been the foundation [1,2], at least in earlier times for design of “optimal diets.” That has changed from recommendations related to “four basic food gro...

Exposure: Theory and Evidence About All the Ways It Matters

Much work on the public health communication component of social marketing focuses on message development. But there is good evidence that failure and success in public health communication is better predicted by variation in exposure to messages achieved than it is by variation in quality of messages. The inconsistent results about effects from some major projects (Stanford Heart Disease, Minn...
