Books in the New Directions in Cognitive Science series

This volume examines the role of logic in cognitive psychology in light of recent developments, such as Gonzalo Reyes's new semantic theory. Chapters reveal the prospects of applying these new theories to cognitive psychology, cognitive science, linguistics, the philosophy of language and logic.

The seventh volume in the 'Vancouver Studies in Cognitive Science' series, This collection of essays focuses on questions that arise when morality is considered from the perspective of work on rational choice and evolution. Contributors focus especially on modelling games like "The Prisoner's Dilemma".

While common sense and rationality have been viewed as two distinct features in a unified cognitive map, this volume engages with this notion and comes up with different views of this relationship. It is aimed at those who are interested in considering what constitutes human rationality, behaviour, and intelligence.

This volume takes a new approach to bridging the cultures of science and the humanities. The editors and contributors formulate how to develop a new shared framework of consilience beyond mere interdisciplinarity, in a way that both sides can accept.

This is the second volume in the Vancouver studies in Cognitive Science series, and also the second in a series of conferences hosted by the Cognitive Science Programme at Simon Fraser University devoted to the exploration of issues in cognition and the nature of mental representation.The volumes overall theme is the relationship between the contents of grammatical formalisms and their real-time realizations in machine or biological systems. The range of topics includes issues of learnability, implementary and computational issues, parameter setting, and neurolinguistic issues. The core subdisciplines of linguistics - syntax, semantics, morphology, and phonology - are all represented. The contributions are on the leading edge of research in these fields.

This is the eighth volume in the Vancouver Studies in Cognitive Science Series. It contains articles by eminent scholars who examine the processes involved in visual attention and the underlying physiological mechanisms that may be responsible for these processes.

This volume showcases an interplay between leading philosophical and linguistic semanticists on the one side, and leading cognitive and developmental psychologists on the other side. The topic is a class of outstanding questions in the semanticists on the one side, and leading cognitive and developmental psychologists on the other side. The topic is a class of outstanding questions in the semantic and logical theories of generic statements and statements that employmass terms by looking to the cognitive abilities of speakers and of child language-learners.

This volume concerns metarepresentation: the construction and use of representations that represent other representations. It collects studies on the subject by an interdisciplinary group of contributors.

Based on an annual conference at Simon Fraser University, this volume collects together papers that discuss the evidence and arguments regarding the inheritability and innateness of grammar, and shows that whole precursors of language exist in other creatures. In the VANCOUVER STUDIES IN COGNITIVE SCIENCE series.

This is the fifth volume in the Vancouver Studies of Cognitive Science series. Perception covers the problem of depth perception, the interaction of perception and memory, the perception of time, and principles of vision. All chapters focus on fundamental questions about the nature of visual perception.

Part of a series on cognitive behaviour and science, based on a 1990 conference sponsored by the Cognitive Science Program and the Linguistics Department of Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The overall theme of this book is the relationship between the contents of grammatical formalisms and their real-time realizations in machine or biological systems. It has been designed to benefit theoretical and computational linguists, learning theorists and cognitive scientists.
