{ "pk": 27733, "title": "You can sweat the small stuff, too: Abstraction subordinates perceptual salience to the larger goal in a category learning paradigm", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Three experiments investigated the role of conceptual\nabstraction in category learning. We found that people in a\nlow-level mindset over-weighted global features in\nclassifying novel exemplars whereas those in a high-level\nmindset did not (Experiments 1 and 3). The effect was on the\nlearning process, independent of perceptual response\npreference (Experiment 3) and occurred despite evidence of\nperceptual global dominance for all groups during learning\n(Experiments 2 and 3). We conclude that abstraction can\nsubordinate perceptual salience to the larger goal, integrating\ndiscrete encounters into a comprehensive representation of the\nunderlying structure.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "abstraction" }, { "word": "category learning" }, { "word": "Global precedence" }, { "word": "Holistic primacy" }, { "word": "Configural processing" } ], "section": "Publication-based-Talks", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6cx7g4nr", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "David", "middle_name": "A", "last_name": "Bosch", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "New York University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Yaacov", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Trope", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "New York University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Gregory", "middle_name": "L", "last_name": "Murphy", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "New York University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2018-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27733/galley/17373/download/" } ] }
