The Puliguous Effects of Context Length on Incidental Word Learning
Most of the words in a person‘s vocabulary are acquired during the course of natural reading, through a process called incidental word learning. Incidental word learning is mediated by a number of factors concerning word, context, and reader characteristics. The current study investigated the effects of one such factor, context length, using a combination of word learning and eye-tracking metho...
متن کاملThe effects of context on incidental vocabulary learning
Japanese university students learning English as a foreign language (EFL) encountered 10 target words in 3 sets of 10 short contexts that were rated on the amount of information available to infer the target words’ meanings. One group of learners met the target words in contexts rated more highly than the contexts read by the other group. A surprise vocabulary test that measured recall of form,...
متن کاملIncidental rewarding cues influence economic decisions in people with obesity
Recent research suggests that obesity is linked to prominent alterations in learning and decision-making. This general difference may also underlie the preference for immediately consumable, highly palatable but unhealthy and high-calorie foods. Such poor food-related inter-temporal decision-making can explain weight gain; however, it is not yet clear whether this deficit can be generalized to ...
متن کاملLearning Context Cues for Synapse Segmentation in EM Volumes
We present a new approach for the automated segmentation of excitatory synapses in image stacks acquired by electron microscopy. We rely on a large set of image features specifically designed to take spatial context into account and train a classifier that can effectively utilize cues such as the presence of a nearby post-synaptic region. As a result, our algorithm successfully distinguishes sy...
متن کاملIntentional Learning Vs Incidental Learning
Incidental learning is the learning of one stimulus feature while concentrating on another stimulus feature too. A little more specific connotation of incidental learning is that it involves the learning of formal aspects through a center of attention on semantic aspects. Incidental learning can occur in many modes inclusive of observations, communications with colleagues about tasks or project...
