McClelland, James L.; Rumelhart, David E. – 1980
This report is the first in a two-part series introducing an interactive activation model of context effects in perception. A model for the perception of letters in words and other contexts is described and applied to a number of experiments. It is proposed that the model accounts for (1) the perceptual advantage for letters in words compared to…

Rumelhart, David E.; McClelland, James L. – 1980
This report is the second in a two-part series introducing an interactive activation model of context effects in perception. In the first part, a model for the perception of letters in words and other contexts was described and applied to a number of experiments. This second part applies the same model to a number of new experiments designed to…

Cassel, Thomas Z. K.; Sander, Louis W. – 1975
This research project was designed to determine whether 1-week-old neonates would indicate biological recognition of their mothers. Biological recognition is defined as the particular configuration of sensory, kinesthetic, and motor cues and the temporal patterning of these cues which characterizes infants' exchange processes with their…

Clark, Michal C. – 1972
The paper is an en route version of a technical report which will ultimately present a process model of transfer that will be usable in the design of instructional programs. Consequently, it is a progress report with respect to the formulation of that model. (LI 004 279 and 004 280 are related documents) (Author)

Burrows, Roger – Mathematics Teaching, 1977
Examples of CLOPAK Networks, an approach to covering the plane with symmetrically arranged, close-packed geometric shapes, are given. Implications for the place of networks in geometry instruction are discussed. (MN)

Cohen, Don – Mathematics Teaching, 1976
Upper elementary school students created their own algorithms for finding products of whole numbers. The algorithms were similar to familiar ones for finding products involving 9 and 11. (SD)
