ACT-R models of a delayed match-to sample task

چکیده
The current paper presents two ACT-R models of a delayed match-to sample task, and performs equivalence testing against human performance data to evaluate them. Success of an episodic model which avoids interference from previously encountered visual stimuli, and implements a serial search and rehearsal strategy lends insight into how individuals may encode, maintain and retrieve visual information.

The Impact of Deductive, Inductive, and L1-Based Consciousness-Raising Tasks on EFL Learners' Acquisition of the Request Speech Act
The necessity and importance of teaching pragmatics has come to light by many researchers (e.g. Rose & Kasper, 2001). Due to the consensus over the need to teach pragmatic competence, the main issue now centers on the question of how we should teach this competence in the most effective way. Consistent with this line of research, the present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of deduc...
متن کاملStroop interference in a delayed match-to-sample task: evidence for semantic competition
Discussions of the source of the Stroop interference effect continue to pervade the literature. Semantic competition posits that interference results from competing semantic activation of word and color dimensions of the stimulus prior to response selection. Response competition posits that interference results from competing responses for articulating the word dimension vs. the color dimension...
متن کاملThe performance of amnesic subjects on tests of delayed matching-to-sample and delayed matching-to-position.
Forced-choice tests of recognition have become the favoured behavioural method for the assessment of models of amnesia in nonhuman primates, yet the profile of deficits shown by human amnesic subjects remains uncertain. The present study explored the performance of 12 amnesic subjects on two delayed matching-to-sample tasks. Experiment 1, which used retention delays of between 2 and 60 sec, con...
متن کاملSpatial, object, and affective working memory in social anhedonia: an exploratory study.
The domain-specificity of working memory was examined in psychosis-prone individuals with elevated social anhedonia scores. A group of individuals with deviant scores on the revised Social Anhedonia Scale (n=43) were compared with a normal control group (n=39) on delayed match-to-sample tasks involving spatial, identity, and affective information. The social anhedonia group performed less well ...
متن کاملAge differences in orbitofrontal activation: an fMRI investigation of delayed match and nonmatch to sample.
Several investigations have suggested that the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) may be particularly vulnerable to the effects of age-related changes. We recently reported behavioral data indicating greater age differences in orbitofrontal tasks when directly compared to tasks tapping dorsolateral prefrontal functions. The present study was designed to investigate the neural underpinnings of age diffe...
