Behavioural Tests

The aim of the study was to assess the relationships between the learning ability and other behavioural profile traits in horses and to answer the question whether motivation to undertake a specific task facilitates the problem solving process and influences the learning rate. The study involved 31 małopolska breed horses at various ages. The learning rate test consisted in moving or lifting the trough lid to achieve a reward. Additionally, all the horses were subjected to a series of behavioural tests. It was found that motivation to perform a specific task does not facilitate execution thereof and does not influence the speed of solving the problem. Similarly, the degree of horse’s arousal and the emotional reactivity do not exert an impact on the speed of solving the problem and are not associated with the motivation for activity in a specific situation.

Problem Solving Process

Abstract   The purpose of this article is to compare the cooperative learning outcomes on social networking with the creative problem solving process which affected creative problem solving ability and teamwork skills. With the purposive sampling method, 25 pre-service teachers were divided into 5 groups according to three levels of their learning ability - clever, medium, and weak. Each group learned by means of cooperative learning on social networking in order to brainstorm and give some suggestions for solving problems to the researcher. Teamwork skills used as research instruments were as follows; solving problem activities and treatment skilled evaluation test. Samples were asked to evaluation themselves and their team after their learning through social networking.  The questionnaires, pre-test and post-test were used in this research with the analysis of Arithmetic means, standard deviation and t-test. The result of this research indicated that learners engaged in cooperative learning with creative problem solving method could succeed after having some problems solving. This group of learners all got the higher scores in post-test compared with pre-test showing statistically significant at the .05 level. Students who engaged in teamwork skills over social networking with creative problem solving ability have statistically significantly higher score than the previous test at 0.5 level. Keywords: Cooperative learning, social networking, creative problem solving process, creative problem solving ability, teamwork skills.

Bodily Movements

Embodied cognition theories suggest a link between bodily movements and cognitive functions. Given such a link, it is assumed that movement influences the two main stages of problem solving: creating a problem space and creating solutions. This study explores how specific the link between bodily movements and the problem-solving process is. Seventy-two participants were tested with variations of the two-string problem (Experiment 1) and the water-jar problem (Experiment 2), allowing for two possible solutions. In Experiment 1 participants were primed with arm-swing movements (swing group) and step movements on a chair (step group). In Experiment 2 participants sat in front of three jars with glass marbles and had to sort these marbles from the outer jars to the middle one (plus group) or vice versa (minus group). Results showed more swing-like solutions in the swing group and more step-like solutions in the step group, and more addition solutions in the plus group and more subtraction solutions in the minus group. This specificity of the connection between movement and problem-solving task will allow further experiments to investigate how bodily movements influence the stages of problem solving.

Dialog Processing

As spoken natural language dialog systems technology continues to make great strides, numerous issues regarding dialog processing still need to be resolved. This book presents an exciting new dialog processing architecture that allows for a number of behaviors required for effective human-machine interactions, including: problem-solving to help the user carry out a task, coherent subdialog movement during the problem-solving process, user model usage, expectation usage for contextual interpretation and error correction, and variable initiative behavior for interacting with users of differing expertise. The book also details how different dialog problems in processing can be handled simultaneously, and provides instructions and in-depth result from pertinent experiments. Researchers and professionals in natural language systems will find this important new book an invaluable addition to their libraries.
