Systematic Distortions in Cognitive Maps: The North American West Coast vs. the (West) Coast of Israel
This article suggests a second thought on two papers published in Cognitive psychology in 1978 and 1981. Both articles deal with systematic distortions in cognitive mapping and both are based on experiments conducted along the North American West Coast. The first, by Stevens and Coupe, deals with distortions due to hierarchical organization while the second, by Tversky, with distortions due to ...
متن کاملCollins, de Laguna, Carpenter, and Stone: The Far North: 2000 Years of American Eskimo and Indian Art / Stewart: Looking at Indian Art of the Northwest Coast

متن کاملLong-time trends in ship traffic noise for four sites off the North American West Coast.
Measurements (1994-2007) from four cabled-to-shore hydrophone systems located off the North American west coast permit extensive comparisons between "contemporary" low frequency ship traffic noise (25-50 Hz) collected in the past decade to measurements made over 1963-1965 with the same in-water equipment at the same sites. An increase of roughly 10 dB over the band 25-40 Hz at one site has alre...
متن کاملRayleigh-Wave Multipathing along the West Coast of North America
We have created a movie of surface ground motion for the 3 November 2002 Denali fault earthquake based on spectral-element simulations using crustal model CRUST2.0, mantle model S20RTS, topography and bathymetry model ETOPO5, and a finite-fault slip model. The movie features two anomalous wave packets that travel along the west coast of the North American plate following offgreat-circle paths. ...
