  2. Field theory (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_theory_(psychology)

    The concept first made its appearance in psychology with roots in the holistic perspective of Gestalt theories. It was developed by Kurt Lewin , a Gestalt psychologist, in the 1940s. Lewin's field theory can be expressed by a formula : B = f(p,e), meaning that behavior (B) is a function of the person (p) and their cultural environment (e).

  3. Chickering's theory of identity development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chickering's_theory_of...

    This vector builds on each of the ones which comes before it. It involves becoming comfortable with oneself. This includes physical appearance, gender and sexual identity, ethnicity, and social roles. It also includes becoming stable and gaining self-esteem. A person who has a well-developed identity can handle feedback and criticism from others.

  4. Emotion classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotion_classification

    The vector model of emotion appeared in 1992. [16] This two-dimensional model consists of vectors that point in two directions, representing a "boomerang" shape. The model assumes that there is always an underlying arousal dimension, and that valence determines the direction in which a particular emotion lies.

  5. Flow-based generative model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow-based_generative_model

    A flow-based generative model is a generative model used in machine learning that explicitly models a probability distribution by leveraging normalizing flow, [1] [2] [3] which is a statistical method using the change-of-variable law of probabilities to transform a simple distribution into a complex one.

  6. ACT-R - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACT-R

    The HAM model was later expanded into the first version of the ACT theory. [37] This was the first time the procedural memory was added to the original declarative memory system, introducing a computational dichotomy that was later proved to hold in human brain. [38] The theory was then further extended into the ACT* model of human cognition. [39]

  7. Flow (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology)

    Flow is an individual experience and the idea behind flow originated from the sports-psychology theory about an Individual Zone of Optimal Functioning. The individuality of the concept of flow suggests that each person has their subjective area of flow, where they would function best given the situation.

  8. Vector flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_flow

    Here D ⊆ R × M is the flow domain. For each p ∈ M the map D p → M is the unique maximal integral curve of V starting at p. A global flow is one whose flow domain is all of R × M. Global flows define smooth actions of R on M. A vector field is complete if it generates a global flow. Every smooth vector field on a compact manifold without ...

  9. Idiothetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiothetic

    This information generates and updates a vector towards the starting point and an accurate path for return. [6] The spider Cupiennius salei has been known to posses this idiothetic orientation, demonstrating its higher cognitive abilities. [7] The term idiothetic is also used in robotics [8] and in personality psychology.
