Methodological variables in verbal discrimination learning

Discrimination learning in a verbal conditioning situation.

Discrimination with Many Variables

Many statistical methods for discriminant analysis do not adapt well or easily to situations where the number of variables is large, possibly even exceeding the number of cases in the training set. We explore a variety of methods for providing robust identiication of future samples in this situation. We develop a range of exible Bayesian methods, and primarily a new hierarchical covariance comp...

Individual differences in the functional neuroanatomy of verbal discrimination learning revealed by positron emission tomography.

Why do some people have better memory abilities than others? This issue has been of long-standing interest to scientists and lay people. However, using purely behavioral methods, psychologists have made little progress in illuminating it. Now that functional brain imaging techniques have become available to study mind/brain relations, there is a new promise of understanding individual differenc...
