Mediated Generalization and Stimulus Equivalence. [PDF]
AbstractFrom the 1930s to the 1970s a large number of experimental studies on mediated generalization were published, and this research tradition provided an important context for early research on stimulus equivalence. Mediated generalization and stimulus equivalence have several characteristics in common, notably that both traditions seek to ...

Testing Stimulus Equivalence in Transformer-Based Agents
This study investigates the ability of transformer-based models (TBMs) to form stimulus equivalence (SE) classes. We employ BERT and GPT as TBM agents in SE tasks, evaluating their performance across training structures (linear series, one-to-many and ...

Electrophysiological correlates of stimulus equivalence processes. [PDF]
Research reported here concerns neural processes relating to stimulus equivalence class formation. In Experiment 1, two types of word pairs were presented successively to normally capable adults. In one type, the words had related usage in English (e.g., uncle, aunt).

Stimulus equivalence, generalization, and contextual stimulus control in verbal classes. [PDF]
Stimulus generalization and contextual control affect the development of equivalence classes. Experiment 1 demonstrated primary stimulus generalization from the members of trained equivalence classes. Adults were taught to match six spoken Icelandic nouns and corresponding printed words and pictures to one another in computerized three-choice matching ...

STABILITY OF FUNCTIONAL EQUIVALENCE AND STIMULUS EQUIVALENCE: EFFECTS OF BASELINE REVERSALS [PDF]
Functional equivalence and stimulus equivalence classes were established, reversed, and tested for stability with college students. Functional stimulus classes were established using a task in which students were trained to say nonsense words in the presence of arbitrarily assigned sets of symbols.

Prediction of Relational Deciphering Stimuli of Compound Abbreviated Appellatives [PDF]
The present study is devoted to the description of the methodology for predicting word combinations equivalent to compound abbreviated appellatives, which is based on the use of the correlation of semantic cases of equivalent word combinations and ...

Implicit Learning of Chinese Numeral Classifiers Using the Stimulus Equivalence Paradigm [PDF]
Chinese Numeral Classifiers (NCs), which are obligatory in the quantification of nouns, have been observed to pose serious challenges to learners of Chinese as a second language. Learners typically have difficulties generalizing the use of classifiers to

STIMULUS EQUIVALENCE AND RULE FOLLOWING [PDF]
The present study examined the occurrence of a novel behavior pattern with respect to a novel configuration of stimuli enabled by the participation of those stimuli in equivalence classes. In Experiment 1, functional substitutabilities were established via equivalence between two independent sets of musical stimuli. Aspects of stimuli from the two sets

SPEED ANALYSES OF STIMULUS EQUIVALENCE [PDF]
The functional substitutability of stimuli in equivalence classes was examined through analyses of the speed of college students' accurate responding. After training subjects to respond to 18 conditional relations, subjects' accuracy and speed of accurate responding were compared across trial types (baseline, symmetry, transitivity, and combined ...
