Difference Test

The purpose of the present study was to examine the role of grammatical and semantical constraints in linguistic strings functioning as maskers. 12 college age, normal hearing, native speakers of English, served as subjects. Three conditions of 25 words with grammatical strings as competing speech, 25 words with semantically anomalous strings as competing speech, and 25 words with ungrammatical strings as maskers were assessed in a treatment-by-subjects analysis of variance. A critical difference test indicated that the difference lay between the mean articulation scores for the semantically anomalous strings and the grammatical and ungrammatical strings. Thus, subjects' performance when the semantically anomalous strings functioned as the masker was depressed relative to performance under the other two conditions of competing speech. These results appeared to be centered around the concepts of attention (familiarity of masker), probability and information content of the masker, and constituent analysis.

Group Members

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Sense Of Obligation

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.

The Relationship

Abstract This commentary focuses upon the relationship between two themes in the target article: the ways in which a Markov blanket may be defined and the role of precision and salience in mediating the interactions between what is internal and external to a system. These each rest upon the different perspectives we might take while “choosing” a Markov blanket.
