16 cze 2013 · An instructive example of an analogical model in psychology is Rom Harré's (1979) role-rule model of microsocial interaction. With the role-rule model, Irving Goffman's (1959) dramaturgical perspective on human action provides the source model for understanding the underlying causal mechanisms involved in the production of ceremonial ...
computational models of analogy have been created, capturing aspects of how people compare representations, retrieve potential analogs from memory, and learn from the results.
11 lis 2009 · Much of humankind’s remarkable mental aptitude can be attributed to analogical ability - the ability to perceive and use relational similarity. In this chapter, we present an overview of analogy and describe its component processes, including structural...
modeling. The strategy has proved to be a valuable resource for the development of many scientific theories. It can be a valu-able resource for developing psychological theories aswell ...
Analogical mapping is often used to connect a familiar situation – the base or source analog – with an unfamiliar or abstract situation – the target analog. When such an alignment has been established, the base situation provides a model that can be used to explain and draw predictions concerning the target situation.
Analogy is a kind of similarity in which the same system of relations holds across different objects. Analogies thus capture parallels across different situations. When such a common structure is found, then what is known about one situation can be used to infer new information about the other.
The first part describes computational models of analogy as well as their relation to computational models of other cognitive processes. The second part addresses the role of analogy in a wide range of cognitive tasks, such as forming complex cognitive structures, conveying emotion, making decisions, and solving problems.
