Then we propose a framework to analyze the nature of upgrade costs, explaining their origins using well-validated cognitive psychology concepts including: cognitive automation, negative transfer, cognitive maps...

... the exploration phase and discuss the possibility of the use of ‘cognitive map’-like processes in spiders. Finally, the review provides suggestions for designing experimental studies to shed light on whether spiders gather metric information during the site exploration (cognitive map hypothesis) or rely on more...

...' perspectives on appropriate forest management were assessed using a conceptual content cognitive map (3CM) task. Results indicate the existence of a wide range of concerns including issues related to the focus, setting, and process of management. The pattern of differences and similarities among stakeholder...

... different spatial relations are encoded within a vector-based representation called a cognitive map, which is an absolute or allocentric spatial representation of the environment. This chapter introduces the Boundary Vector Cell model, which assumes that place cells —representing certain locations in space...

... spatial, cognitive, maps used by the human brain clearly cooperate toward flexible representations of spatial relations that are progressively abstract (or categorical) and may be apt to support the human ability to communicate spatial information and understand mathematical concepts. Nevertheless...

... of cognitive maps and their use in navigation through space. A range of alternative theories, particularly those built around how memory systems handle ambiguity, associative-relations, and context, are also discussed. The chapter concludes by zeroing in on the idea that neural activity in the hippocampal...

The chapter supports C-RTM with examples drawn from cognitive science, including perceptual representations and cognitive maps, and applies C-RTM to long-standing debates over the existence, nature, individuation, structure, and explanatory role of mental...

Insight seems necessary to explain cognitive map evidence, in particular planning...

In particular, connectionist tools and results can be adapted to organizational contexts by exploiting the analogy between information loops and organizational routines. mental categories mental models cognitive maps evidence theory belief functions simplicial families...

... children as students, map and puzzle makers, letter writers, and playmates, Mahshid Mayar interrogates the ways turn-of-the-century American children encountered, made sense of, and produced spatial narratives and cognitive maps of the United States and the world. Mayar further probes how children’s...

...This chapter closes the panel discussion by claiming that, as a result of the rapid rise of emerging-market countries and the concomitant global imbalances, it is time for the world to reload our cognitive maps. The view that member countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation...

... from body-relative frames of reference. Cognitive maps, that is, maps of the environment are learned by connecting locations over space and time. The hippocampus strongly supports the learning of cognitive maps, as it supports the generation of new episodic memories, suggesting a strong relation...

... develops the idea that a building provides both views from various viewpoints and places where particular experiences can be felt, and actions can be performed. For this, the design must support a variety of scripts for both practical and contemplative action and the cognitive maps that relate places...

The three theoretical approaches capture many relevant aspects of the possible basis of spatial behaviour. associative learning cognitive maps learning stimulus–response associations survey map analogy ballistic stimulus–response associations...

These include domain-specific perceptual and reinforcement learning systems; ‘model-based’ systems that rely on representing causal structure; structural representations in cognitive maps; relational reasoning with concepts; using one relation to stand...
