Pairs of participants played a simple communicationgame using a non-linguistic visual medium to send messagesto each other. We manipulated noise, effort, and time pres-sures and measured message length, redundancy, and accuracy.Participants behaved as predicted based on an information-theoretic model, with message length and redundancy varyingaccording to circumstance, but accuracy remaining constant.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "communication; focus; information theory; lan-guage; redundancy; signaling game" } ], "section": "Posters: Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6fg6s0gz", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Gareth", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Roberts", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Jon", "middle_name": "Scott", "last_name": "Stevens", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2017-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27339/galley/16975/download/" } ] }
