Answer
-
A chair is furniture.
-
A chair has legs.
-
A canary has feathers.
-
A chair has properties similar to a table.
Question 2

Answer
-
A chair has lungs.
-
A chair is furniture.
-
A canary is a bird.
-
A table is furniture.
Question 3
Question

Answer
-
Cognitive Economy
-
Nodes
-
Links
-
Spokes
-
Relative Node Distance
Question 4
Question
The hierarchical network model predicts that reaction times in sentence verification tasks are a function of hierarchical levels. Based on this, what prediction could we make about the response time of "a gorilla is a mammal" compared to a "gorilla is an animal"?
Answer
-
A gorilla is a mammal should have quicker reaction times.
-
They should have close to equal reaction times.
-
A gorilla is a mammal should have slower reaction times.
-
A gorilla is an animal should have quicker reaction times.
Question 5
Question
Conrad (1972) argued that reaction time data can be better explained by frequency of co-occurrence. Based on this what would we predict about the following 2 sentences?
A fish swims.
Fish have a dorsal fin.
Answer
-
A fish swims should have a quicker reaction time.
-
A fish has a dorsal fin should have a quicker reaction time.
-
A fish swims should have a longer reaction time.
-
There should be no difference in reaction time.
-
It depends on the colour of the fish.
Question 6
Question
The spreading activation model is similar to the hierarchical network model but is able to explain the lack of hierarchical effect, the typicality effect and semantic priming. What is the main difference between the models?
Answer
-
The spreading activation model doesn't organise concepts hierarchically.
-
The spreading activation model is spread flat instead of a pyramid.
-
The hierarchical network model takes into account hierarchies in the work place such as boss-employee or student-teacher.
-
The spreading activation model allows for an explanation of sensory integration.
Question 7
Question
The 2 stage decision process of the feature comparison model claims that we first compare [blank_start]defining and characteristic[blank_end] features and if that fails then stage 2 is to compare [blank_start]defining[blank_end] features.
Answer
-
all
-
defining
-
characteristic
-
defining
-
characteristic
-
all
Question 8
Question
The fact that often in semantic amnesia there is impairment of living things but preservation of body parts suggests a distinction between...
Answer
-
Functional vs visual stimuli
-
Auditory vs visual stimuli
-
Animate vs inanimate stimuli
-
Visual vs proprioceptive stimuli
Question 9
Question
For the hub and spoke model of semantic memory, select all possible explanations as to why we have hubs.
Answer
-
For knowledge integration across types of stimulus.
-
For easy detection of semantic similarities that have significantly different sensory modalities.
-
For easy detection of semantic similarities that have similar sensory modalities.
-
To make 2 stage decision processes quicker.
