The Perception of Stimulus Relations
Author: Hayne W. ReesePublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 1483263614
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
The Perception of Stimulus Relations: Discrimination Learning and Transposition focuses on the processes, methodologies, and approaches involved in discrimination learning and transposition. The book first offers information on stimulus equivalence, transposition of paradigms, and the transposition and relation perception problems. The manuscript then examines measurement, training, subject, and test variables. Topics include stimulus and procedural variables, effect of direction of transposition test, phylogenetic comparisons, concept knowledge, and speed of original learning. The publication elaborates on form transposition, including transposition of visual forms and the meaning of form and form transposition. The text then takes a look at relational and absolute theories, summary of findings and evaluation of theories, and outline of a theory of transposition. Discussions focus on assumptions and basic deductions, effect of absolute stimulus components, effect of noticing change in stimuli from training to test, and stimulus similarity. The book is a valuable source of data for readers interested in discrimination learning and transposition.

Book Description
Nine rhesus monkeys were successively trained and tested on two intermediate-size transposition problems. In problem 1, responses based on "relative" stimulus properties were opposed to chance behavior determined by "absolute" stimulus properties, and the subjects indicated significant learning of stimulus relationships. Problem 2 was designed in such a way that different non-chance behaviors should result from response to "absolute" and "relational" stimulus properties, and the subjects consistently reverted to choices based on "absolute" stimulus properties. It is concluded that rhesus monkeys learn both "absolute" and "relational" cues during training in a single stimulus-situation and that there is a strong tendency to respond to "absolute" stimulus values whenever feasible.
Cognitive Aspects of Stimulus Control
Author: W. K. HonigPublisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1317728513
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
The study of discrimination and generalization in animals traditionally involves stimuli that are simple, uniform, and restricted in time or space. In recent years, the area of stimulus control has been expanded with the use of stimuli that are complex, extended in time or space, and incorporate or represent natural objects, events, or locations. The contributors to this unique volume have emphasized controlling functions of complex stimulus events -- such as location or duration -- and their relation to cognitive processes in animals. The chapters cover a wide array of topics, including spatial cognition, categorization, pattern perception, numerosity discriminations, imagery, and spatial tracking, thereby addressing the question of how complex events are perceived, processed, and organized. This volume goes beyond other recent books on animal cognition in that it specifically places some well-known phenomena within the context of stimulus control.
