Cognitive/Experimental Psychology at Ohio State University Cognitive Psychology at The Ohio State University Doctoral Program Brochure 2007 Edition Doctoral Program in Cognitive Psychology at Ohio State University Program Orientation The Cognitive Psychology Program trains scholars who can make substantive contributions to basic knowledge in cognitive and experimental psychology. Graduate students develop research and analytical skills while learning to coordinate basic research with theory development and application. You will participate with faculty members in joint research projects investigating such questions as: How do Lazenby Hall, current home of the Cognitive people perform skilled movements? How do Psychology Program they perceive and classify objects and events? How do they process language, Candidacy Examination, you are admitted to attend and remember? Answers may be Ph.D. candidacy. Questions for the pursued in experimental research and in Candidacy Examination are based on a theoretical modeling. Answers are pursued reading list that is prepared with the help of in class, in laboratory research, and in brown the four faculty members who serve on your bag discussions and seminars. You will be examination committee. You are expected encouraged to present findings at to spend an additional one to two years professional meetings and to publish papers completing the Ph.D. dissertation. in professional journals. Developing a sense of professional identity and commitment is a The Center for Cognitive Science at Ohio key component of study, and is fostered State is a lively and well-developed center through participation in research seminars, which connects the departments of conventions, and in interactions with visiting psychology, philosophy, computer science, research scientists. linguistics, optometry, industrial and systems engineering, and speech and hearing sciences, among others. The Cognitive Area plays an active and important role in this Program of Study flourishing center. Our students and faculty benefit from its interdisciplinary courses, An individualized study program allows you seminars, and opportunities for research to complete the master’s degree collaboration.

Language and Speech Language and speech covers core areas such as speech perception and production, reading, sentence processing, syntax, spoken and visual word recognition, memory for text and discourse, corpus analysis as well as computational modeling of several of these domains. This area has close ties to excellent programs in several other departments: linguistics including The “Oval” at The Ohio State University campus. computational linguistics, computer science, and speech and hearing.

However, it was not until the 11th century that the Persian physician Avicenna attributed a connection between emotions and physical responses in a practice roughly dubbed "physiological psychology." Some consider the 17th and 18th centuries the birth of modern psychology (largely characterized by the publication of William Battie's "Treatise on Madness" in 1758). Others consider the mid- 19th century experiments done in Hermann von Helmholtz's lab to be the start of modern psychology. Many say that 1879, when Wilhelm Wundt established the first experimental psychology lab, was the true beginning of psychology as we know it. From that moment forward, the study of psychology would continue to evolve as it does today. Highlighting that transformation were a number of important, landmark events.

  • Perception and Identification of Random Events
    Journal of Experimental Psychology: © 2014 American Psychological Association Human Perception and Performance 0096-1523/14/$12.00 http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0036816 2014, Vol. 40, No. 4, 1358–1371 Perception and Identification of Random Events Jiaying Zhao Ulrike Hahn University of British Columbia Birkbeck College, University of London Daniel Osherson Princeton University The cognition of randomness consists of perceptual and conceptual components. One might be able to discriminate random from nonrandom stimuli, yet be unable to identify which is which. In a series of experiments, we compare the ability to distinguish random from nonrandom stimuli to the accuracy with which given stimuli are identified as “random.” In a further experiment, we also evaluate the encoding hypothesis according to which the tendency of a stimulus to be labeled random varies with the cognitive difficulty of encoding it (Falk & Konold, 1997). In our experiments, the ability to distinguish random from nonrandom stimuli is superior to the ability to correctly label them. Moreover, for at least 1 class of stimuli, difficulty of encoding fails to predict the probability of being labeled random, providing evidence against the encoding hypothesis. Keywords: randomness, perception, texture, alternation bias How people understand randomness has been a question of bling (e.g., Dreman, 1977; Ladouceur, Sylvain, Letarte, Giroux, & longstanding interest in psychology. The ability to apprehend Jacques, 1998; Manski, 2006; Michalczuk, Bowden-Jones, randomness is fundamental to cognition since it involves noticing Verdejo-Garcia, & Clark, 2011). Experience with randomness may structure, or the lack thereof, in the environment (Bar-Hillel & also influence religious beliefs (Kay, Moscovitch, & Laurin, Wagenaar, 1991).

Grad TAs: TBD Bulletin Description Introduces research methods employed in the study of the cognitive and social determinants of thinking and decision making. Students gain experience in the conduct of research, including: design of simple experiments; observation and preference elicitation techniques; the analysis of behavioral data, considerations of validity, reliability, and research ethics; and preparation of written and oral reports. Note: Fee: $70. Attendance at the first class is essential. Prerequisites • Science of Psychology (PSYC 1001) or Mind, Brain, & Behavior (PSYC 1010), or equivalent intro psych course.* • An introductory statistics course (e.g., PSYC 1610, or STAT 1001, 1111, or 1211).* • Students are not required to have taken PSYC 2235 (Thinking & Decision Making), but as we will draw many examples from the field of judgment and decision making, you will find advantages to having taken either PSYC 2235 or another 2000-level psychology lecture course that introduces related topic areas (e.g., PSYC 2220 or PSYC 2640).

  • Psychology and Its History
    2 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCING PSYCHOLOGY'S HISTORY • Distinguish between primary and secondary sources of historical information and describe the kinds of primary source information typically found by historians in archives • Explain how the process of doing history can produce some degree of confidence that truth has been attained PSYCHOLOGY AND ITS HISTORY One hundred is a nice round number and a one-hundredth anniversary is ample cause for celebration. In recent years, psychologists with a sense of history have celebrated often. The festivities began back in 1979, with the centennial of the founding of Wilhelm Wundt's laboratory at Leipzig, Germany. In 1992, the American Psychological Associ­ ation (APA) created a yearlong series of events to commemorate the centennial of its founding in G. Stanley Hall's study at Clark University on July 8, 1892. During the cen­ tennial year, historical articles appeared in all of the APA's journals and a special issue of American Psychologist focused on history; several books dealing with APA's history were commissioned (e.g., Evans, Sexton, & Cadwallader, 1992); regional conventions had historical themes; and the annual convention in Washington featured events ranging from the usual symposia and invited addresses on history to a fancy dress ball at Union Station featuring period (1892) costumes and a huge APA birthday cake. Interest in psychology's history has not been limited to centennial celebrations, of course. Histories of psychology were written soon after psychology itself appeared on the academic scene (e.g., Baldwin, 1913), and at least two of psychology's most famous books, E. G.
