Structural ambiguity in serial pattern learning
32
TL;DR: Four experiments on serial anticipation learning of lights by college students show that the operations of transposing and taking the mirror image are used, and a sequence made of two contrasting halves may be as easy to learn as a sequence having a single homogeneous hierarchical structure.

Perception of Temporal Patterns
Dirk-Jan Povel,Peter Essens +1 more
TL;DR: A theory of the processing of such sequences, partly implemented as a computer program, is presented and it is assumed that perceivers try to generate an internal clock while listening to a temporal pattern.

Information-processing models of cognition
TL;DR: This article reviews recent progress in modeling human cognitive processes, and pays particular attention to the use of computer programming languages as a formalism for modeling, and to computer simulation of the behavior of the systems modeled.

Structural complexity as a determinant of serial pattern learning
Stewart H. Hulse,Noah P. Dorsky +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend the study of serial pattern learning to nonhuman organisms by constructing patterns using elements that are both familiar and motivationally meaningful to animals, and examine the ability of rats to anticipate various quantities of food when the quantities occur in a serial order.

Structural factors in patterned finger tapping.
Dirk-Jan Povel,René Collard +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that varying the internal representation of one and the same sequence of taps affects the performance in a predictable way.

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the organization of serial pattern learning, and discusses several theoretical formulations and reports a series of experiments on serial integration of spatially arranged events.

Neo-Noncontinuity Theory
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the neo-noncontinuity theory, a theory dealing with choice responses during discrimination learning that holds that the choices reflect hypotheses that S is testing.
