Concepts \norganized to contrast consistently on the same attributes \nas sister categories within a hierarchy may be particularly \nuseful in guiding induction. W e assess whether systems of \nnovel categories organized in this maimer were also easier \nto leam. Supervised concept learning was dramatically \neasier in the consistent over inconsistent contrast \ncondition. W e tested whether several models of concept \nlearning would show sensitivity to consistent contrast, as \npeople did, including assessment of a model designed to \nuse information about consistent contrast, TWILIX. None \nof the models tested (ALCOVE, rational analysis, and \nTWILIX ) showed muc h sensitivity to the \nConsistent/Inconsistent contrast. People may flexibly \nadjust their learning strategy to capitalize on simple \nregularities when available, in a manner not incorporated \nin these concept learning models.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "17", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6gr9v2db", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Dorrit", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Billman", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Georgia Institute of Technology", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Davi", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Davila", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1995-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/33061/galley/24122/download/" } ] }
