Computational models of episodic-like memory in food-caching birds

How the 'what', 'where', and 'when' of past experiences are stored in episodic memories and retrieved for suitable decisions remains unclear. In an effort to address these questions, the authors present computational models of neural networks that behave l ...

Nothing New Under the Sun: Novelty Constructs and Measures in Social Studies

Davide Bavato

The concept of novelty is central to questions of creativity, innovation, and discovery. Despite the prominence in scientific inquiry and everyday discourse, there is a chronic ambiguity over its meaning and a surprising variety of empirical measures, whic ...

The Impact of Voice Leading and Harmony on Musical Expectancy

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Robert Lieck, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth

In Western tonal music, voice leading (VL) and harmony are two central concepts influencing whether a musical sequence is perceived as well-formed. However, experimental studies have primarily focused on the effect of harmony on the cognitive processing of ...

Time-resolved effective connectivity in task fMRI: Psychophysiological interactions of Co-Activation patterns

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Arwen Blanche Giraud

Investigating context-dependent modulations of Functional Connectivity (FC) with functional magnetic resonance imaging is crucial to reveal the neurological underpinnings of cognitive processing. Most current analysis methods hypothesise sustained FC withi ...

Sensorimotor conflicts alter metacognitive and action monitoring

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Laurène Véronique Vuillaume

While sensorimotor signals are known to modulate perception, little is known about their influence on higher-level cognitive processes. Here, we applied sensorimotor conflicts while participants performed a perceptual task followed by confidence judgments. ...

From the Principle of Inertia to the Death Drive: The Influence of the Second Law of Thermodynamics on the Freudian Theory of the Psychical Apparatus

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Philippe Ansermet

In the Freudian theory of the psychical apparatus, the introduction from the 1920s onward of the second drive dualism appears as a major turning point. The idea of a "death drive," first expressed in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (Freud, 1920), is generall ...

Fostering computational thinking through educational robotics: a model for creative computational problem solving

Francesco Mondada, Alberto Piatti, Christian Giang

Background: Educational robotics (ER) is increasingly used in classrooms to implement activities aimed at fostering the development of students’ computational thinking (CT) skills. Though previous works have proposed different models and frameworks to desc ...

What is new in perceptual learning?

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

What is new in perceptual learning? In the early days of research, specificity was the hallmark of perceptual learning; that is, improvements following training were limited to the trained stimulus features. For example, training with a stimulus improves p ...

Destroying the circular economy in order to save it - three challenges for accurate investment decisions that have emerged in recent years

The circular economy concept, as presented by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF), together with many other organisations, could be threatened by opportunists and fantasists. In essence, anyone with an aversion to seek to scientifically clarify the presen ...
