A Connectionist ABM of Social Categorization Processes
This paper introduces a connectionist Agent-Based Model (cABM) that incorporates detailed, microlevel understanding of social influence processes derived from laboratory studies and that aims to contextualize these processes in such a way that it becomes possible to model multidirectional, dynamic influences in extended social networks. At the micro-level, agent processes are simulated by recur...
متن کاملDisentangling multimodal processes in social categorization.
The current work examines the role of sensorimotor processes (manipulating whether visual exposure to hard and soft stimuli encourage sensorimotor simulation) and metaphor processes (assessing whether participants have understanding of a pertinent metaphor: "hard" Republicans and "soft" Democrats) in social categorization. Using new methodology to disassociate these multimodal processes (i.e., ...
متن کاملMetaphor as Categorization: A Connectionist Implementation
A key issue for models of metaphor comprehension is to explain how, in some metaphorical comparison “A is B,” only some features of B are transferred to A. The features of B that are transferred to A depend both on A and on B. This is the central thrust of Black’s (1979) well-known interaction theory of metaphor comprehension. However, this theory is somewhat abstract, and it is not obvious how...
متن کاملPerceptual categorization: connectionist modelling and decision rules.
Although it is currently popular to model human associative learning using connectionist networks, the mechanism by which their output activations are converted to probabilities of response has received relatively little attention. Several possible models of this decision process are considered here, including a simple ratio rule, a simple difference rule, their exponential versions, and a winn...
