“只要有一个分区和一个概率分布,就可以使用信息论测量。行为理论的刺激和反应满足了这些条件,但信息论语言被证明对心理学有用的情况是冲突是一个重要因素的情况。“不确定性”函数满足了可能为衡量“冲突程度”而规定的一些要求。但是,如果不做一些修改,它并不能满足所有人,因为它取决于竞争性反应倾向的相对而非绝对优势。6个心理变量:情绪干扰,反应时间,驱动力,好奇心,刺激复杂性和奖励进行了讨论,相对于冲突和信息理论。49篇参考文献。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
" The use of information-theory measures is possible whenever there is a partition and a probability distribution. The stimuli and responses of behavior theory fulfill these conditions, but the situations in which information-theory language has proved useful to psychology have been ones in which conflict is an important factor. The'uncertainty'function satisfies some of the requirements that may be laid down for a measure of'degree of conflict.'But it does not satisfy them all without some modification, because it depends on the relative but not the absolute strengths of competing response tendencies." 6 psychological variables: emotional disturbance, reaction time, drive, curiosity, stimulus complexity, and reward are discussed, relative to conflict and information theory. 49 references.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
