Computational Modeling in Cognition Zusammenfassung

Computational Modeling in Cognition: Principles and Practice Stephan Lewandowsky

An accessible introduction to the principles of computational and mathematical modeling in psychology and cognitive science

This practical and readable work provides students and researchers, who are new to cognitive modeling, with the background and core knowledge they need to interpret published reports, and develop and apply models of their own. The book is structured to help readers understand the logic of individual component techniques and their relationships to each other.

Computational Modeling in Cognition Bewertungen

[T]his is an excellent introduction to computational modeling. It is written at exactly the right level for its intended readership, and it covers all the essentials very well. I can only encourage anyone with an interest in cognition to work with this book. -- Koen Lamberts
