Beyond independent latent classes: Testing the limits of human flexibility

2024-07-05

Abstract excerpt

<p>A hallmark of human intelligence is the ability to flexibly adapt to novel situations. This flexibility relies crucially on the appropriate generalization of previously acquired knowledge. One influential theoretical framework argues that humans organize their knowledge in a collection of latent classes. Humans could then assign any novel situation to one of the latent classes (or construct a new one if it is t...
