The position taken in the review of experiments on concept formation is a general one, intended more to comment on the field as a whole than on any one position in particular. When individual items are stored in memory, the concept formation process can abstract information from them, rather than only from items as they are presented. The computational

EXPLANATIONS ARE ABOUT CONCEPTS AND CONCEPT FORMATION
2007In this paper, I wish to argue that an explanation is not a logical structure¸ that it cannot be characterised in syntactic terms, but that it is rather an epistemological structure, and, more specifically, a structure organising conceptual content.

Publisher Summary This chapter presents some contexts in which concept formation can play a role. These include discovery and data analysis, planning and problem solving, engineering design and diagnosis, natural language processing, and information retrieval. The data analysis and discovery are primarily concerned with characterizing an environment.

On concept formation in systematics
Cladistics, 2006AbstractIn his “Grundzüge einer Theorie der phylogenetischen Systematik”,Hennig (1950) cited three philosophers: the leading empiricist Rudolf Carnap, the conventionalist Hugo Dingler, and the somewhat more obscure empiricist Theodor Ziehen. David Hull characterized Hennig's “Grundzüge” as one long argument against idealistic morphology.
