An environment for the network. I have argued that the Cognitive theorists have increasingly turned toward a brain network should be partitioned into modules devoted to metaphor: the mind works like the brain. Because cognition quite specific tasks (Martindale, 1981, 1991). The brain occurs in the brain, this is certainly reasonable. Connectionist involves extreme division of labor. For example, percep- or neural-network theories all postulate nodes and connec- tion of a colored moving form involves activation of neu- tions amongst these nodes. Nodes work like neurons but are rons in quite discrete areas devoted to location, form, simpler, and connections work like axons and dendrites but color, and motion (Treisman, 1992). We need to postulate are again simpler. The reason for this simplification is that we a number of sensory and perceptual modules. We also do not know enough about the brain to attempt a neuron-by- need modules for semantic memory, episodic memory, neuron explanation of cognition. and an action module that initiates response to a stimulus. To build a neural network, we need several components I have also argued that each module is organized into (Rumelhart, Hinton & McClelland, 1986): several layers, with vertical connections being excitatory and lateral inhibition operating on each layer.

    DIFFERENTIAL MINDS: MASS INTELLIGENCE TESTING AND RACE SCIENCE IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY by Kate E. Sohasky A dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Baltimore, Maryland May 9, 2017 © Kate E. Sohasky All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Historians have argued that race science and eugenics retreated following their discrediting in the wake of the Second World War. Yet if race science and eugenics disappeared, how does one explain their sudden and unexpected reemergence in the form of the neohereditarian work of Arthur Jensen, Richard Herrnstein, and Charles Murray? This dissertation argues that race science and eugenics did not retreat following their discrediting. Rather, race science and eugenics adapted to changing political and social climes, at times entering into states of latency, throughout the twentieth century. The transnational history of mass intelligence testing in the twentieth century demonstrates the longevity of race science and eugenics long after their discrediting. Indeed, the tropes of race science and eugenics persist today in the modern I.Q. controversy, as the dissertation shows. By examining the history of mass intelligence testing in multiple nations, this dissertation presents narrative of the continuity of race science and eugenics throughout the twentieth century.

  • The Dynamics of Persuasion: Communication
    THE DYNAMICS OF PERSUASION The Dynamics of Persuasion has been a staple scholarly resource for teaching persuasion for nearly two decades. Author Richard M. Perloff speaks to students in a style that is engaging and informational, explaining key theories and research as well as providing timely and relevant examples. The companion Web site includes materials for both students and instructors, expanding the pedagogical utilities and facilitating adoptions. The sixth edition includes: ■ updated theoretical and applied research in a variety of areas, including framing, inoculation, and self-affirmation; ■ new studies of health campaigns; ■ expanded coverage of social media marketing; ■ enhanced discussion of the Elaboration Likelihood Model in light of continued research and new applications to everyday persuasion. The fundamentals of the book—emphasis on theory, clear-cut explanation of findings, in-depth discussion of persuasion processes and effects, and easy-to-follow real-world applications—continue in the sixth edition. Richard M. Perloff, Professor of Communication, Psychology, and Political Science at Cleveland State University, has been on the faculty at Cleveland State since 1979. He has written scholarly textbooks on persuasion, political communication, and the communication of AIDS prevention. Dr. Perloff is a nationally known expert on the third-person effect, the divergent perceptions of mass media impact on others and the self.

  • President's Welcome
    Grid 1 President’s Welcome 2013 Convention of the Eastern Psychological Association Welcome to the 84th meeting of the Eastern Psychological Association. This meeting promises to be a very exciting and stimulating one, not just because of our meeting location in the heart of Times Square but also because of the many fabulous speakers who will be discussing their work with us. The theme of the meeting is “Consuming Psychological Science.” Therefore, speakers will be discussing food consumption from many different perspectives including sensory, developmental, social, learning, clinical, and cognitive. Some of the highlights: - Kicking off the meeting, Linda Bartoshuk (University of Florida) will be giving the Psi Chi/EPA Invited Address, “Why do we like some foods and hate others? Can we do anything about it?” - The Presidential Integrative Symposium “ Why we eat what we eat” will have Jeff Brunstrom (University of Bristol), Marcia Pelchat (Monell Chemical Senses Research Center) and Peter Herman (University of Toronto) discussing their work in an attempt to explain human eating. - In a second symposium “New insights into the biology, associated psychopathology, and prevention of obesity” Allan Geliebter (Columbia University Medical Center/Touro College), Susan Carnell (Columbia University Medical Center), Laurence Nolan (Wagner College), and David Levitsky (Cornell University) will discuss some recent findings about obesity. - Other invited speakers including Paul Rozin (University of Pennsylvania), Janet Polivy (University of Toronto) Brian Wansink (Cornell University), Julie Menella (Monell Chemical Senses Research Center) and Terry Davidson (American University) will be presenting invited addresses on the topic of food and eating. Yes, there are non-food-related presentations too! Some of the highlights: - In celebration of the 50 year anniversary of Richard Solomon’s presidency of the Eastern Psychological Association, one of his most prominent students, Steve Maier (University of Colorado), will present the Richard Solomon Invited Address.
