Learning unit contents
This class provides an introduction into the critical analysis of theoretical models (diagrams, connexionist models) and intervention methods commonly used in psychological sciences and speech and language therapy. The students will learn several epistemological methods that will help them to distinguish science from pseudoscience. These methods will be applied to several cognitive domains, including language and memory. The students will also get familiarized with connexionist architectures (computational models).
