Funded Activity Summary

The role of memory and reasoning processes in associative learning. The project will investigate how people learn to detect cues that predict or cause significant events in their environment (associative learning). The research builds on recent empirical and theoretical work by the investigators supporting the role of deductive reasoning processes in associative learning. Novel experimental strategies will be used to identify the separate and interacting roles of lower-level memory processes and higher-level reasoning processes. Existing competing models and novel cooperative models will be tested. The research will lead to a better understanding of associative learning in humans, and will also inform the construction of intelligent artificial systems.
