Neo-associativism: Limited learning transfer without binding symbol representations
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 25 (3):350-351 (2002)
| Abstract | Perruchet & Vinter claim that with the additional capacity to determine whether two arbitrary stimuli are the same or different, their association-based PARSER model is sufficient to account for learning transfer. This claim overstates the generalization capacity of perceptual versus nonperceptual (symbolic) relational processes. An example shows why some types of learning transfer also require the capacity to bind arbitrary representations to nonperceptual relational symbols. | |||||||||
