New Handbook of Mathematical Psychology: Volume 3, Perceptual and Cognitive Proc

Description: New Handbook of Mathematical Psychology: Volume 3, Perceptual and Cognitive Processes by F. Gregory Ashby, Hans Colonius, Ehtibar N. Dzhafarov The New Handbook of Mathematical Psychology provides a rigorous introduction to the key foundational, theoretical, and applied areas of the field of mathematical psychology. Volume 3 focuses on key content areas in perceptual and cognitive processes, and effectively complements the previous volumes by covering recent developments. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The field of mathematical psychology began in the 1950s and includes both psychological theorizing, in which mathematics plays a key role, and applied mathematics motivated by substantive problems in psychology. Central to its success was the publication of the first Handbook of Mathematical Psychology in the 1960s. The psychological sciences have since expanded to include new areas of research, and significant advances have been made both in traditional psychological domains and in the applications of the computational sciences to psychology. Upholding the rigor of the original Handbook, the New Handbook of Mathematical Psychology reflects the current state of the field by exploring the mathematical and computational foundations of new developments over the last half-century. The third volume provides up-to-date, foundational chapters on early vision, psychophysics and scaling, multisensory integration, learning and memory, cognitive control, approximate Bayesian computation, and encoding models in neuroimaging.

Review This is the third volume of the New Handbook of Mathematical Psychology. Here, the editors, leaders in their fields, focus on Perceptual and Cognitive Processes. Mathematical psychology has come a long way since its inception in the 1950s. This volume signifies its evolution into a vital linchpin of modern scientific psychology. James T. Townsend, Distinguished Professor and Rudy Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Emeritus, Indiana University Promotional Explores how foundational mathematical ideas can be employed in the understanding of a variety of psychological phenomena.
