Applying Occam’s razor in modeling cognition: A Bayesian approach
In mathematical modeling of cognition, it is important to have well-justified criteria for choosing among differing explanations (i.e., models) of observed data. This paper introduces a Bayesian… Expand

The question of how one should decide among competing explanations of data is at the heart of the scientific enterprise. Computational models of cognition are increasingly being advanced as… Expand
When a good fit can be bad
How should we select among computational models of cognition? Although it is commonplace to measure how well each model fits the data, this is insufficient. Good fits can be misleading because they… Expand
Altering Context Speech Rate Can Cause Words to Appear or Disappear
Speech is produced over time, and this makes sensitivity to timing between speech events crucial for understanding language. Two experiments investigated whether perception of function words (e.g.,… Expand

Ambiguous stops between /t/ and /k/ tend to be heard as /k/ after /s/-final words and as /t/ after /∫/-final words. Elman and McClelland (1988,Journal of Memory and Language,27,143–165) obtained this… Expand
