Abstract

haracterized by descriptions of each module and how each serves in those tasks for which it is best suited. However, these theories often do not emphasize how modules interact in producing responses and in learning. In this article we will develop a modular theory of categorization that follows from two distinct accounts of this behavior. The first account is that of rule-based theories of categorization. These theories emerge from a philosophical tradition in which concepts and categorization are described in terms of definitional rules. For example, if a living thing has a wide, flat tail and constructs dams by cutting down trees with its This work was supported by Indiana University Cognitive Science Program Fellowships and by NIMH ResearchTraining Grant PHS-T32-MH19879-03 to Erickson, and in part by NIMH FIRST Award 1-R29-MH51572-01 to Kruschke. This research was reported as a poster at the 1996 Cognitive Science Society Conference in San Diego, CA. We than
