We ask whether auditory and visual signals are processed using a consistent mental architecture across variable experimental designs.
"You need a framework, mental architecture, to understand what you're looking at so that you don't go home at night and have nightmares," he said then.
If the dissenters are less readily disposed to credit gods, spirits and ancestors with a capacity to intervene in human affairs than their social superiors and inferiors are, it is not because their genes have endowed them with a different mental architecture.
A prominent tradition of research in cognitive neuroscience has attempted to develop a model of mental architecture along these lines by studying the responses of normal and abnormal subjects to various stimuli.
How does his view of God as a byproduct of our mental architecture coexist with his Christianity?
No matter how much science can explain, it seems, the real gap that God fills is an emptiness that our big-brained mental architecture interprets as a yearning for the supernatural.
This article reassesses the place of concept-based explanation in semantics in light of these developments, concentrating on the explanatory power, scope and uniqueness of the conceptual hypothesis as a substantive proposal about the mental architecture supporting meaning.
In an early attempt to account for the sorts of explicit-implicit dissociations observed in amnesia and other neurological syndromes, Schacter (1990) suggested that our mental architecture might contain a module specifically dedicated to conscious awareness -- a module which he called the conscious awareness system (CAS).
The bot is really just a reminder of the difference between the tidy logic of a machine and the wonderfully messy mental architecture of humans.
Several solid approaches to identifying mental architecture are introduced with a discussion of the necessary assumptions for these tests.
We utilized Systems Factorial Technology (Townsend & Nozawa, 1995), regarded as a standard diagnostic tool for inferences about mental architecture, to study redundant-target audiovisual processing.
