Learning Spatially Structured Image Transformations Using Planar Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Learning image transformations is essential to the idea of mental simulation as a method of cognitive inference. We take a connectionist modeling approach, using planar neural networks to learn fundamental imagery transformations, like translation, rotation, and scaling, from perceptual experiences in the form of image sequences.

Understanding factors that influence the drug choice of prescribers: A Q‐methodology study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Therapeutic decision‐making often involves weighing several treatment options on the basis of, among other things, the disease profile, patient characteristics but also prescriber‐specific factors. This study investigated the factors influencing therapeutic decision‐making among prescribers and explores how these factors differ ...

Parental stress and life satisfaction: A comparative study of social services users and nonusers from a gender perspective

Journal of Community Psychology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 345-360, January 2023., 2023
Abstract The psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Parental Stress Scale (PSS) scale have not been verified on the Spanish population. Similarly, the literature on gender differences and parental stress is inconclusive, and there is little evidence of their relationship with life satisfaction.

Mental rotation and object-spatial-verbal cognitive stiles

Revista de Estudios e Investigación en Psicología y Educación, 2014
The aim of this study was to assess correlations between the Measure of the Ability to Rotate Mental Images (MARMI, Campos, 2012), an innovative mental imagery rotation test, and each of the three scales of the Object-Spatial Imagery and Verbal ...

Knowledge acquisition in science and the blurred boundary between perception and cognition

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper provides a critical and detailed study of what researchers in the fields of contemporary cognition and neuroscience have revealed about the blurred boundary between perception and cognition. We set out the arguments with a view to what researchers and teachers should now consider regarding the subtleties of their interrelationship ...

Dimensions of cognition, behaviour, and mental health in struggling learners: A spotlight on girls

JCPP Advances, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Male and female phenotypes were characterised in a large transdiagnostic sample of children identified by practitioners as experiencing problems in cognition and learning, irrespective of diagnostic status. Dimensions of cognition, behaviour and mental health were structurally invariant between boys and girls, but cognitive problems were more severe in

Repetition benefit in mental rotation is independent of stimulus repetition [PDF]

, 2011
In this study, we investigated whether there is a repetition benefit in mental rotation that is independent of stimulus repetition (i.e., due to increased efficiency in postencoding processing).
