Category representation for classification and feature inference.
This research's purpose was to contrast the representations resulting from learning of the same categories by either classifying instances or inferring instance features. Prior inference learning research, particularly T. Yamauchi and A. B. Markman (1998), has suggested that feature inference learning fosters prototype representation, whereas classification learning encourages exemplar represen...
متن کاملCategory Representation and Category-Based Inference
To make sense of the myriad new and existing products and services in the marketplace, consum ers construct and use categorical representations to classify, interpret, and understand information they receive about these products and services. We define a consumer category as a set of products, services, brands, or other marketing entities, states, or events that appear, to the consumer, relate...
متن کاملCategory Learning by Inference and Classification
The nature of category formation is linked to the tasks applied to learn the categories. To explore this idea, we investigated how three different methods of category learning—Classification Learning, Inference Learning, and Mixed Learning (a mixture of the two)—affect the way people form categories. In Classification Learning, subjects learned categories by predicting the class to which an ind...
متن کاملThe development of categorization: effects of classification and inference training on category representation.
Does category representation change in the course of development? And if so, how and why? The current study attempted to answer these questions by examining category learning and category representation. In Experiment 1, 4-year-olds, 6-year-olds, and adults were trained with either a classification task or an inference task and their categorization performance and memory for items were tested. ...
متن کاملCategories and Feature Inference: Category Membership and a Reasoning Bias
This study investigated how the information about category membership influences the prediction of properties of category members. Results revealed that participants’ response patterns became homogeneous and polarized when arbitrary noun labels carried category membership information. We suggest that this tendency arises because category membership information is represented like an abstract ru...
