  2. Image schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_schema

    Other influences include Max Wertheimer's gestalt structure theory and Kant's account of schemas in categorization, as well as studies in experimental psychology on the mental rotation of images. In addition to the dissertation on over by Brugman, Lakoff's use of image schema theory also drew extensively on Talmy and Langacker's theories of ...

    Previously, one of the most commonly used scale to evaluate emotional response was the Semantic Differential. However, according to Lang, this method is costly in both time and effort used by researchers and participants to complete the experiment, and requires statistical expertise, such as factor analysis, for resolution, which may not be accessible for all researchers.

    In Gestalt psychology it is known as identifying a figure from the background. For example, black words on a printed paper are seen as the "figure", and the white sheet as the "background".

    Originally developed in 1978 by Vandenberg and Kuse [5] based on the research by Shepard and Metzler (1971), [1] a Mental Rotation Test (MRT) consists of a participant comparing two 3D objects (or letters), often rotated in some axis, and states if they are the same image or if they are mirror images (enantiomorphs).

    A logical graph is a special type of graph-theoretic structure in any one of several systems of graphical syntax that Charles Sanders Peirce developed for logic.. In his papers on qualitative logic, entitative graphs, and existential graphs, Peirce developed several versions of a graphical formalism, or a graph-theoretic formal language, designed to be interpreted for logic.

  9. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

    A typical one-line diagram with annotated power flows. Red boxes represent circuit breakers, grey lines represent three-phase bus and interconnecting conductors, the orange circle represents an electric generator, the green spiral is an inductor, and the three overlapping blue circles represent a double-wound transformer with a tertiary winding.
