This book was released on 1965 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigation was an attempt to find learning materials for which the simultaneous presentation technique would be inferior to other techniques. Subjects learned a 40-item list of paired-associates under one of four training conditions. The stimulus terms were the names of electronic circuits, the response terms, schematic diagrams of electronic circuits. Half the items had distractors that were very similar to the correct response term, the remaining half, distractors that were less similar. Half the items in each of these groups had distractors that were the correct response terms for other items in the list. The remaining items had distractors that were unique to a given item. The overall differences between training techniques were not large, but there was some indication that the Five Alternative Prompt condition was inferior to the remaining conditions. Interactions were found between training conditions and item types, but again the differences involved were not large. Separate comparisons on the various item types indicated that in no case was the One Alternative Prompt condition reliably inferior to any of the remaining conditions. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two hypotheses were considered concerning the effect of response availability on associative learning. The Underwood and Schulz (i960) "availability" hypothesis states that the response must be available in the response-recall sense before associative learning can begin. The alternative hypothesis states that response-learning and associative learning are independent processes. In a 2 x 3 factorial design (Experiment #l), Ss either received response pretraining or had no response pretraining, and subsequently they learned a list of pairs and received 1 , 3 , or 6 paired-associate recall trials. Following paired-associate recall all the Ss received an associative-matching test in which both the stimulus and the response terms were present. The paired-associate recall scores for the pretraining groups were greater than those for the no pretraining groups for the three and six-trial groups and these differences were significant statistically. On the associative-matching test there were only slight differences favoring the pretraining groups. The difference between pretraining and no pretraining groups in paired-associate recall was expected, to remain in the associative-matching test if response availability facilitates associative learning, and the difference was expected to disappear if response-learning and associative learning are independent processes. The results essentially support the independent process hypothesis. There was some evidence (Experiment # 2 ) that the difference between pretraining and no pretraining groups in paired-associate recall scores was due to the fact that response availability exerts its influence on paired-associate scores at the time of recall rather than during associative learning. Some of the difference may also be due to pacing or other performance factors peculiar to the anticipation method of testing. It was concluded that the relationship between response-learning and associative learning may be more complicated than visualized in this thesis, and that response availability may have some facilitating effect on associative learning. However, the results of these experiments offer good, reason to reconsider the Underwood and Schulz (i960) position concerning the necessity of response availability for associative learning, and to consider instead the alternative position that response-learning and associative learning are independent processes.

This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 3643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century, educational psychologists and researchers have posited many theories to explain how individuals learn, i.e. how they acquire, organize and deploy knowledge and skills. The 20th century can be considered the century of psychology on learning and related fields of interest (such as motivation, cognition, metacognition etc.) and it is fascinating to see the various mainstreams of learning, remembered and forgotten over the 20th century and note that basic assumptions of early theories survived several paradigm shifts of psychology and epistemology. Beyond folk psychology and its naïve theories of learning, psychological learning theories can be grouped into some basic categories, such as behaviorist learning theories, connectionist learning theories, cognitive learning theories, constructivist learning theories, and social learning theories. Learning theories are not limited to psychology and related fields of interest but rather we can find the topic of learning in various disciplines, such as philosophy and epistemology, education, information science, biology, and – as a result of the emergence of computer technologies – especially also in the field of computer sciences and artificial intelligence. As a consequence, machine learning struck a chord in the 1980s and became an important field of the learning sciences in general. As the learning sciences became more specialized and complex, the various fields of interest were widely spread and separated from each other; as a consequence, even presently, there is no comprehensive overview of the sciences of learning or the central theoretical concepts and vocabulary on which researchers rely. The Encyclopedia of the Sciences of Learning provides an up-to-date, broad and authoritative coverage of the specific terms mostly used in the sciences of learning and its related fields, including relevant areas of instruction, pedagogy, cognitive sciences, and especially machine learning and knowledge engineering. This modern compendium will be an indispensable source of information for scientists, educators, engineers, and technical staff active in all fields of learning. More specifically, the Encyclopedia provides fast access to the most relevant theoretical terms provides up-to-date, broad and authoritative coverage of the most important theories within the various fields of the learning sciences and adjacent sciences and communication technologies; supplies clear and precise explanations of the theoretical terms, cross-references to related entries and up-to-date references to important research and publications. The Encyclopedia also contains biographical entries of individuals who have substantially contributed to the sciences of learning; the entries are written by a distinguished panel of researchers in the various fields of the learning sciences.

Download or read book Paired Associates Learning written by Albert E. Goss and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paired-Associates Learning: The Role of Meaningfulness, Similarity, and Familiarization focuses on the role of meaningfulness, similarity, and familiarization of stimuli in paired-associates (PA) learning. The book illustrates the problems, methods, findings, and theoretical implications of research findings. The book first offers information on scalings of meaningfulness, theoretical analyses, and meaningfulness in PA learning. Discussions focus on rationale and general objectives, designs of experiments, techniques, construction and use of lists, and overview and specific analyses. The text then examines similarity and familiarization, including scalings, effects of similarity on acquisition and backward recall, familiarization and transfer, and effects of familiarization. The manuscript ponders on meaning and association and summary, significance, and suggestions. Topics include theoretical analyses and significance of empirical findings and conclusions, acquired-distinctiveness training, number of and associations among elements, induction of meaning and meaningfulness, and response-mediated associations. The publication is a dependable reference for researchers interested in paired-associates learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1978. In this book the author has attempted to present a systematic theoretical and factual account of the role of higher mental processes in human learning and memory, and certain aspects of the psychology of perception and language. The major orienting theme of the book is its dual emphasis on nonverbal imagery and verbal processes (inner speech) as memory codes and mediators of behavior. Based on recent experimental evidence, the conceptual approach in a sense represents an integration of pre-behavioristic and behavioristic views concerning the nature of thought. The book is intended both as a textbook and as a theoretical monograph.
