Peer reviewedMassaro, Dominic W.; Cohen, Michael M. – Cognitive Psychology, 1991
The stochastic interactive activation and competition (SIAC) model of perception is presented and tested using several data sets from previous research. The asymptotic predictions of the SIAC model are compared with those of the fuzzy logical model of perception (FLMP). Evidence favoring the FLMP is reviewed. (SLD)
