Aesthetic typicality and sustainable design
… designers work reveals cultural priorities on typicality. Research from the field of cognitive psychology also suggests that across cultures, typicality is likely to improve cognitive economy during recognition of designed objects. Psychological science can shed light on the way our minds …

Enriching deontic logic with typicality
… about exceptions, but a stronger notion of typicality which is based on defeasibility. KLM-style defeasible reasoning introduced by Kraus, Lehmann and Magidor (KLM), is a logic system that employs defeasibility while a logic that serves the same role for the stronger notion of typicality is …

Age of acquisition and semantic typicality effects
… Its origin is – unlike the origin of semantic typicality (TYP), which is assumed at the semantic level – controversially discussed. Different theories propose AOA effects to originate either at the semantic level or at the link between semantics and phonology (lemma-level). The dissertation …

On typicality and adaptation in driven dynamical systems
In this work, I consider the possibility of using typicality-type arguments for understanding intractably complex damped-driven dynamical systems. By approximating such dynamics with appropriately constrained random process, I illustrate quantitative predictive power for some aspects of the motion. …

Event Typicality and Memory: Investigating How Prior Knowledge and Novelty Modulate Memory for Complex Events
… as novelty and congruence with prior knowledge (typicality). Despite a long history of research, studies on the neural underpinnings of the mnemonic effects of novelty and typicality rarely examine complex naturalistic event memories. Moreover, it is uncertain how these effects evolve over time, …

Typical PM targets are not typically better than atypical PM targets: Underlying mechanisms of Prospective Memory retrieval
… mismatching the actual and the expected category typicality of PM targets while familiarity was manipulated by the category typicality of PM targets alone. Consistent with PAM’s prediction, higher PM performance with significant monitoring was found in the conditions where typical category …

Priming in semantic categories : an evaluation of the effects of similarity and prototypicality
… relations in the stimulus set and of the prototypicality of stimulus items on response times to pairs of words. In the first experiment, subjects judged word pairs from six natural semantic categories as containing members from the same category or from different categories. Pairs of both high …
