Across: 4) Computer circuits that mimic the brain's interconnected neural cells, performing tasks such as learning to recognize visual patterns and smells.5) The set of rules by which we derive meaning from morphemes, words, and sentences in a given language; also, the study of meaning.6) Whorf's hypothesis that language determines the way we think.7) In a language, a system of rules that enables us to communicate with and understand others.8) The tendency to think of things only in terms of their usual functions; an impediment to problem solving.9) A tendency to approach a problem in a particular way, especially a way that has been successful in the past but may or may not be helpful in solving a new problem.12) Judging the likelihood of things in terms of how well they seem to represent, or match, particular prototypes; may lead one to ignore other relevant information.14) A mental image or best example of a category. Matching new items to the prototype provides a quick and easy method for including items in a category (as when comparing feathered creatures to a prototypical bird, such as a robin).16) Estimating the likelihood of events based on their availability in memory; if instances come readily to mind (perhaps because of their vividness). We presume such events are common18) The way an issue is posed; how an issue is framed can significantly affect decisions and judgments.19) The stage in speech developement, from about age 1 to 2, during which a child speaks mostly in single words.20) A mental grouping of similar objects, events, ideas, or people.21) Bring facts and knowledge together from various sources and apply logic and knowledge to solve problems.22) A tendency to search for information that confirms one's preconceptions.24) The inability to see a problem from a new perspective; an impediment to problem solving.25) Beginning at 3 to 4 months, the stage of speech developement in which the infant spontaneously utters various sounds at first unrelated to the household langauge.26) The rules for combining words into grammatically sensible sentences in a given language.27) Start with things you think or know are true and then draw specific solutions from that.29) Early speech stage in which a child speaks like a telegram - "go car" - using mostly nouns and verbs and omitting "Auxiliary" words.30) Start with detail and look at a broader solution. From specific to general. Allows us to make generalizations.31) The tendency for one's preexisting beliefs to distort logical reasoning, sometimes by making invalid conclusions seem valid, or valid conclusions seem invalid.32) More than 1 way to solve a problem- focus on multiple answers.
