Local Search and the Evolution of World Models

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

The Role of Language Dominance in Congruency Effects on Multi‐Word Unit Processing: Evidence From Early Bilinguals

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

An Introduction to Predictive Processing Models of Perception and Decision‐Making

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract The predictive processing framework includes a broad set of ideas, which might be articulated and developed in a variety of ways, concerning how the brain may leverage predictive models when implementing perception, cognition, decision‐making, and motor control.

Use what you can: Storage, abstraction processes and perceptual adjustments help listeners recognize reduced forms

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
Three eye-tracking experiments tested whether native listeners recognized reduced Dutch words better after having heard the same reduced words, or different reduced words of the same reduction type and whether familiarization with one reduction type ...

The Emotional Valence Paradox in Social media: A Computational Linguistic Analysis of How Sentiment, Emotion, and Content Domain Predict Social Comparisons on Rednote

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This computational linguistic study analyzes 8743 Rednote posts to examine how sentiment, emotion, and content domain collectively shape social comparison dynamics on social media. We identify four key findings: (1) an emotional gradient, where upward comparison content exhibits the highest sentiment scores and downward comparison the lowest; (

What Dynamic Approaches Have Taught Us About Cognition and What They Have Not: On Values in Motion and the Importance of Replicable Forms

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Over the past several decades, research in the cognitive sciences has foregrounded the importance of active bodies and their continuous dependence on the changing environment, strengthening the relevance of dynamical models. These models have been steadily developed within the ecological psychology approach to cognition, which arguably ...

Retinoic acid signaling: a new piece in the spoken language puzzle

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
Speech requires precise motor control and rapid sequencing of highly complex vocal musculature. Despite its complexity, most people produce spoken language effortlessly.

Robust rhythm reporting will advance ecological and evolutionary research

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Rhythmicity in the millisecond to second range is a fundamental building block of communication and coordinated movement. But how widespread are rhythmic capacities across species, and how did they evolve under different environmental pressures ...

Situated Attention and Strategic Leadership Interfaces: The Role of CEO Humility and Digital Transformation Urgency for Corporate Venture Capital Investments

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Integrating the attention‐based view with the strategic leadership interfaces perspective, we propose a theoretical model of situational urgency mechanisms influencing the allocation of CEOs' attention towards responsive actions. Specifically, we theorize upon the role of humility, which leads CEOs towards embracing interfaces and makes them ...

The Dynamical Hypothesis in Situ: Challenges and Opportunities for a Dynamical Social Approach to Interpersonal Coordination

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Over the past three decades, Van Gelder's dynamical hypothesis has been instrumental in reconceptualizing the ways in which perception‐action‐cognition unfolds over time and in context. Here, I examine how the dynamical approach has enriched the theoretical understanding of social dynamics within cognitive science, with a particular focus on ...
