我们提出了两个实验,评估实例化世界的两个状态之间的关系的变换的大小(例如,是影响类比推理的一个表现因素。第一个实验发现转换大小的证据作为一个显着的因素,在青少年类比问题解决,而第二个实验发现了类似的效果,成人类比推理使用一个显着不同的类比完成范式。结果被解释为提供更一般的框架,关系的认知表征最好理解为心理转变的证据。
We present two experiments assessing whether the size of a transformation instantiating a relation between two states of the world (e.g., shrinks) is a performance factor affecting analogical reasoning. The first experiment finds evidence of transformation size as a significant factor in adolescent analogical problem solving while the second experiment finds a similar effect on adult analogical reasoning using a markedly different analogical completion paradigm. The results are interpreted as providing evidence for the more general framework that cognitive representations of relations are best understood as mental transformations.
