Observing Responses and Decision Processes
Vigilance performance was investigated within the framework of a two-stage model. A direct measure of the first phase, the observing response (OR) stage, was obtained by requiring Ss to key press to produce the stimulus display containing either a signal or noise. The second phase, the detection-decision stage, was analyzed using both conventional measures and those derived from the theory of s...
متن کاملPreschoolers perform more informative experiments after observing theory-violating evidence.
This study investigated the effect of evidence conflicting with preschoolers' naive theory on the patterns of their free exploratory play. The domain of shadow size was used--a relatively complex, ecologically valid domain that allows for reliable assessment of children's knowledge. Results showed that all children who observed conflicting evidence performed an unconfounded informative experime...
متن کاملMaximally Informative Dimensions: Analyzing Neural Responses to Natural Signals
We propose a method that would allow for a rigorous statistical analysis of neural responses to natural stimuli, which are non–Gaussian and exhibit strong correlations. We have in mind a model in which neurons are selective for a small number of stimulus dimensions out of the high dimensional stimulus space, but within this subspace the responses can be arbitrarily nonlinear. Existing analysis ...

متن کاملHuman neural responses elicited to observing the actions of others.
Monkey electrophysiological and human neuroimaging studies indicate the existence of specialized neural systems for the perception and execution of actions. To date, the dynamics of these neural systems in humans have not been well studied. Here, we investigated the spatial and temporal behavior of human neural responses elicited to viewing motion of the face, hand, and body. Scalp event-relate...
