On experiments with cognitive systems to find quantum-like statistical structure
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe cognitive experiments (based on interference of probabilities for mental observables) that could verify quantum-like structure of mental measurements. In principle, such experiments can be performed in psychology, cognitive, and social sciences. Recently one of such experiments (described in the previous version of the preprint) based on recognition of images was performed. It confirms our prediction on quantum-like behaviour of mind. In fact, the general contextual probability theory predicts not only quantum-like trigonometric (cos θ) interference of probabilities, but also hyperbolic (cosh θ) interference of probabilities. In principle, statistical data obtained in experiments with cognitive systems can produce hyperbolic (cosh θ) interference of probabilities. At the moment there are no experimental confirmations of hyperbolic interference for cognitive systems.

We present a contextualist statistical realistic model for quantum-like representations in physics, cognitive science and psychology. We apply this model to describe cognitive experiments to check quantum-like structures of mental processes. The crucial role is played by interference of probabilities for mental observables. Recently one of such experiments based on recognition of images was per...
متن کاملBell’s inequality for conditional probabilities as a test for quantum-like behaviour of mind
We define quantum-like probabilistic behaviour as behaviour which is impossible to describe by using the classical probability model. We discuss the conjecture that cognitive behaviour is quantum-like. There is presented the scheme for an experimental test for quantum-like cognitive behaviour based on a generalization of the famous Bell’s inequality. This generalization is an analogue of Bell’s...

متن کاملQuantum-like model of cognitive decision making and information processing
In this paper we offer the quantum-like (QL) representation of the Shafir-Tversky statistical effect which is well known in cognitive psychology. We apply the so-called contextual approach. We consider the Shafir-Tversky effect to result from mixing statistical data obtained in incompatible contexts which are involved, e.g. in Prisoner's Dilemma or in more general games in which the disjunction...
