Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book pioneers a groundbreaking quantitative analysis of the evolution of concepts, measuring the time and methodological efficiency of this crucial cognitive ability in the human psyche. While investigating the standard inductive method of concept evolution (employed in traditional formal instruction), the author also breaks new ground introducing an alternative method. The author does this through a unique set of experiments with devised characters, which yielded results that challenged the educational status quo. The experimental method explored in this book introduces a new approach to understanding generalizing abstraction. It provides exact, replicable, and objective measures to analyze an important mental process that until this book could only be subjectively analyzed. The insights in this text will be of great value to psychologists, educators, and anyone interested in how the human mind works.
