Generative AI and the Future of Musical Diversity
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract I argue that the current proliferation of generative artificial intelligence (AI) represents a new stage in a longer historical process of distancing humans from their unique individual psyches and of reducing participation and cultural diversity in music. The argument consists of six parts: (1) reiterating the uniqueness of individual psyches,

How to Match Cognitive Model Predictions With EEG Data
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Reliably identifying relevant brain areas implicated by the simulated activity from cognitive models is still an unsolved problem for cognitive modeling, particularly when matching model output with human electroencephalography (EEG) data. We propose a new method involving postprocessing of ACT‐R module activity and clustered EEG component ...

Anxiety is Associated With Biases in Task Generalization
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Adaptive behavior depends on generalizing learned task structures to novel situations. While anxiety is known to distort stimulus‐based threat generalization, its effects on task generalization—the transfer of learned action−outcome structures to new planning contexts—remain poorly understood.

Conniving With Continuations: Representing Goals in a Domain‐Specific Language of Thought
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Wanting composes flexibly with knowing: we can want to know, want to know what someone wants, and so on. In this paper, we develop a goal representation that allows for this type of rich integration between goals and other theory‐of‐mind concepts.

Psycholinguistic Experiment as the Way of the Revelation of the Efficiency of the Oikonym
Филологический класс, 2015 The article describes the results of the methodic of the subjective scaling as a kind of the psycholinguistic experiment directed to the revelation of the efficiency of the names of the cottage settlements situated in the outskirts of Yekaterinburg. The studying of oikonymic nomination in the psycholinguistic aspect is supposed to be perspective as ...

Charting New Paths in the Study of Kin Term Acquisition
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Kin terms appear among infants’ earliest words, yet a full mastery of kin concepts typically emerges only in late childhood. This prolonged developmental trajectory reflects not only children's acquisition of an abstract relational system of words, but also their growing understanding of social relationships and interactional norms.

Preschoolers’ Sensitivity to Abstract Relations Among Sets
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract In two studies, we test preschoolers’ ability to compare abstract relationships across sets. In Experiments 1a−1d, we show that both older (4‐ and 5‐year‐olds) and younger (3‐year‐olds) preschoolers successfully match both monotonic and symmetric relationships in visual patterns and succeed both in direct relational matches and inverted ones ...

From Odors to Colors: Sensory Perception in Neurodiverse Mexican Youth
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Previous work has shown that humans make consistent associations between odor and color. However, neurodiverse individuals, especially those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), perceive and interpret sensory information differently from their neurotypical peers.

Words and Scents: How Language Shapes and Skews Olfactory Processing
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Research on language and olfaction presents a paradox. Language appears to support the formation of odor categories, yet it can also hinder odor recognition through verbal interference, highlighting that different olfactory processes get affected in distinct ways.

An Introduction to Rational Constructivism in Cognitive Development
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Rational constructivism is a contemporary theory of cognitive development. It proposes that children generate, tweak, and radically revise theories, beliefs, and representations by integrating evidence with existing knowledge via probabilistic inferential learning mechanisms.
