Can quantum probability provide a new direction for cognitive modeling?

EM Pothos, JR Busemeyer - Behavioral and brain sciences, 2013 - cambridge.org
Classical (Bayesian) probability (CP) theory has led to an influential research tradition for
modeling cognitive processes. Cognitive scientists have been trained to work with CP …

Creative thought as a non Darwinian evolutionary process

L Gabora - The Journal of Creative Behavior, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
