Uncertainty is an intrinsic part of life; most events, affairs, and questions are uncertain. A key
problem in behavioral sciences is how the mind copes with uncertain information. Quantum …

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 …

Two experimental tasks in psychology, the two-stage gambling game and the Prisoner's
Dilemma game, show that people violate the sure thing principle of decision theory. These …

The broader scope of our investigations is the search for the way in which concepts and their
combinations carry and influence meaning and what this implies for human thought. More …

We analyze different aspects of our quantum modeling approach of human concepts and,
more specifically, focus on the quantum effects of contextuality, interference, entanglement …

Purpose–To develop a theory of concepts that solves the combination problem, ie to deliver
a description of the combination of concepts. We also investigate the so‐called “pet fish …

One of us has recently elaborated a theory for modelling concepts that uses the state context
property (SCoP) formalism, ie a generalization of the quantum formalism. This formalism …

Psychology has had difficulty accounting for the creative, context-sensitive manner in which
concepts are used. We believe this stems from the view of concepts as identifiers rather than …

Information Retrieval (IR) is the complex of activities performed by a computer system so as
to retrieve from a collection of documents all and only the documents which contain …

For two decades, the formalism of quantum mechanics has been successfully used to
describe human decision processes, situations of heuristic reasoning, and the contextuality …
