Connectionist Models in Cognitive Psychology is a state-of-the-art
review of neural network modelling in core areas of cognitive
psychology including: memory and learning, language (written and
spoken), cognitive development, cognitive control, attention and
action. The chapters discuss neural network models in a clear and
accessible style, with an emphasis on the relationship between the
models and relevant experimental data drawn from experimental
psychology, neuropsychology and cognitive neuroscience. These lucid
high-level contributions will serve as introductory articles for
postgraduates and researchers whilst being of great use to
undergraduates with an interest in the area of connectionist
modelling.

This volume collects together refereed versions of twenty-five
papers presented at the 4th Neural Computation and Psychology
Workshop, held at University College London in April 1997. The
"NCPW" workshop series is now well established as a lively forum
which brings together researchers from such diverse disciplines as
artificial intelligence, mathematics, cognitive science, computer
science, neurobiology, philosophy and psychology to discuss their
work on connectionist modelling in psychology. The general theme of
this fourth workshop in the series was "Connectionist Repre
sentations," a topic which not only attracted participants from all
these fields, but from allover the world as well. From the point of
view of the conference organisers focusing on representational
issues had the advantage that it immediately involved researchers
from all branches of neural computation. Being so central both to
psychology and to connectionist modelling, it is one area about
which everyone in the field has their own strong views, and the
diversity and quality of the presentations and, just as
importantly, the discussion which followed them, certainly attested
to this."
This is a new release of the original 1959 edition.

One thing that separates human beings from the rest of the animal
world is our ability to control behavior by referencing internal
plans, goals, and rules. This ability, which is crucial to our
success in a complex social environment, depends on the purposeful
generation of "task sets"-states of mental readiness that allow
each of us to engage with the world in a particular way or achieve
a particular aim. This book reports the latest research regarding
the activation, maintenance, and suppression of task sets. Chapters
from many of the world's leading researchers in task switching and
cognitive control investigate key issues in the field, from how we
select the most relevant task when presented with distracting
alternatives, to how we maintain focus on a task ("eyes on the
prize") and switch to a new one when our goals or external
circumstances change. Chapters also explore the brain structures
responsible for these abilities, how they develop during childhood,
and whether they decline due to normal aging or neurological
disorders. Of interest especially to scholars and students of
cognitive psychology, the volume offers thorough,
multi-disciplinary coverage of contemporary research and theories
concerning this fundamental yet mysterious aspect of human brain
function and behavior.
This volume focuses on spoken language and its production. It is
part of a series which provides a forum for the cross-fertilization
of ideas from diverse disciplines that share a mutual interest in
discourse. A variety of approaches to the topic are represented:
sociolinguistics; psycholinguistics; ethnomethodology and the study
of language; educational psychology; and computational linguistics.
