Spatial Mental Imagery Gap of Student-Studio Lecturer and Client-Designer/Architect by Virtual Reality and Non-Virtual Reality
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Adharamadinka, Muhammad; Junaidy, Deny Willy – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
This study used the verbal protocol method to examine differences in perceptions of spatial mental imagery between students and studio lecturers and between clients and designers/architects, which lead to interpretational bias between groups of respondents regarding interior spaces. Individual perceptions of virtual space dimensions were captured…

Hong, Jon-Chao; Hwang, Ming-Yueh; Tai, Kai-Hsin; Lin, Pei-Hsin – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2021
Remote association requires players to use their mental transformation to identify objects' relationships by activating knowledge application. A Chinese Remote Association game was designed (example question: [characters omitted], where the answer is [character omitted]) to explore learners' cognitive and affective effects, and then eighth grade…

Veksler, Vladislav D.; Gray, Wayne D.; Schoelles, Michael J. – Cognitive Science, 2013
Reinforcement learning (RL) models of decision-making cannot account for human decisions in the absence of prior reward or punishment. We propose a mechanism for choosing among available options based on goal-option association strengths, where association strengths between objects represent previously experienced object proximity. The proposed…

Semantic Boost on Episodic Associations: An Empirically-Based Computational Model
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Silberman, Yaron; Bentin, Shlomo; Miikkulainen, Risto – Cognitive Science, 2007
Words become associated following repeated co-occurrence episodes. This process might be further determined by the semantic characteristics of the words. The present study focused on how semantic and episodic factors interact in incidental formation of word associations. First, we found that human participants associate semantically related words…

From the Lexicon to Expectations About Kinds: A Role for Associative Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Colunga, Eliana; Smith, Linda B. – Psychological Review, 2005
In the novel noun generalization task, 2 1/2-year-old children display generalized expectations about how solid and nonsolid things are named, extending names for never-before-encountered solids by shape and for never-before-encountered nonsolids by material. This distinction between solids and nonsolids has been interpreted in terms of an…
