The experiment reported here adopted a design that required subjects to process identical visual stimuli while performing different tasks: an action perception task, and two 'linguistic' tasks, a phonological task and a conceptual task.
Silverman et al. advocate organising the recommendations in a conceptual framework comprising the main tasks of a doctor in a consultation [ 6].
By perceiving algebraic elements that are closer together in a hierarchical structure as a unified, perceptual object, one could transform the conceptual task of verifying algebraic validity into the perceptual task of checking that transformations do not violate algebraic objects.
This may be due to the lack of "unique entity" concepts in the current experiment or the absence of overt social and/or verbal conceptual task requirements (see Simmons and Martin 2009 for a recent review).
Although this methodology has its drawbacks (McRae, 2004), the regularities in the statistical properties of object features have been shown to affect behaviour on a variety of conceptual tasks (see Taylor et al., 2011 for a review).
Comparing all old items in the Agentic and Conceptual tasks against each other, irrespective of study conditions, showed that both source accuracy and confidence was significantly higher for Conceptual source memory judgments than Agentic source memory judgments (accuracy: t(17) = 3.20, P = 0.005; confidence: t(17) = 2.87, P = 0.011).
Research programs designed to test signaling functions for these facial displays (or any others) should be organized in light of two interlocking conceptual tasks.
In this paper, we discuss an interactive planning algorithm that assists the engineer in the conceptual design task by knowledge about structure.
In fact, both clusters in the You > Obama contrast in the Conceptual recollection task were still significant when exclusively masked with a leniently thresholded (P < 0.05, uncorrected) Subject > Experimenter contrast in the Agentic recollection task, indicating that self > other mPFC activation differences were restricted to conceptual self-referential memories.
