A psycholinguistic study was conducted to assess the level of trust in different fictional products with varying framing. It found that product type has greatest influence on acceptance, while expert or layperson status participants least influence. The second most relevant influencing factor is estimated higher by all groups when a description using frame SUPPORTING rather than frames DECIDING...

For half a century, artificial intelligence researchers have focused on giving machines linguistic and mathematical-logical reasoning abilities, modeled after the classic linguistic and mathematical-logical intelligences. This chapter describes new research that is giving machines (including software agents, robotic pets, desktop computers, and more) skills of emotional intelligence. Machines h...

The meaning of symbol is open, based on which the learner can gradually establish his or her own symbol library and develop the capability of meaning construction. Relying on "linguistic symbol" and "non-linguistic symbol" -based symbol literacy improvement, medium literacy and cultural literacy education and training, multiple intelligence education, course ontology research, etc., we can impr...

We investigated Gardner's “Theory of Multiple Intelligences” in a sample of 200 adults. For each of the hypothesized eight “intelligence” domains–Linguistic, Logical/Mathematical, Spatial, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Musical, Bodily-Kinesthetic, Naturalistic–we selected two tests based on Gardner's description of its content. Factor analysis revealed a large g factor having substantial loadin...
