Are things that are hard to physically move also hard to imagine moving?
Are objects that are more difficult to physically manipulate also more difficult to mentally manipulate? In our study, participants interacted with wooden objects modeled after the figures from Shepard and Metzler's (1971) classic mental rotation experiment. One pair of objects was easy to physically rotate while another pair was difficult. They then completed a standard mental rotation task on...
متن کاملSimple Sentences That Are Hard to Decide
It was considered to be “typical for first order theories” that a restriction to sentences with only a limited number of quantilier alternations leads to an exponential decrease of complexity. Using domino games, which were treated in a previous paper to describe computations of alternating Turing machines, we prove that this is not always true. We present a list of theories, all of them decida...
متن کاملHard Sets are Hard to Find
We investigate the frequency of complete sets for various complexity classes within EXP under several polynomial-time reductions in the sense of resource bounded measure. We show that these sets are scarce: The sets that are complete under 6 p n ?tt-reductions for NP, the levels of the polynomial-time hierarchy, and PSPACE have p 2-measure zero for any constant < 1. The 6 p n c ?T-complete sets...
متن کاملNonexistence of Voting Rules That Are Usually Hard to Manipulate
Aggregating the preferences of self-interested agents is a key problem for multiagent systems, and one general method for doing so is to vote over the alternatives (candidates). Unfortunately, the Gibbard-Satterthwaite theorem shows that when there are three or more candidates, all reasonable voting rules are manipulable (in the sense that there exist situations in which a voter would benefit f...
متن کاملHow hard are hard triggers?
We study Abusch’s (2002; 2010) distinction between hard and soft triggers from an experimental point of view. We show that there are apparent counterexamples to the distinction, discuss their status and describe future experiments aiming at clarifying the processing issues that form the core of the problem.
