The representations used in the emerging theory are causal Bayes nets or graphical causal models. In his new book, Clark Glymour provides an informal introduction to the basic assumptions, algorithms, and techniques of causal Bayes nets and graphical causal models in the context of psychological examples. He demonstrates their potential as a powerful tool for guiding experimental inquiry and for interpreting results in developmental psychology, cognitive neuropsychology, psychometrics, social psychology, and studies of adult judgment. Using Bayes net techniques, Glymour suggests novel experiments to distinguish among theories of human causal learning and reanalyzes various experimental results that have been interpreted or misinterpreted - without the benefit of Bayes nets and graphical causal models. The capstone illustration is an analysis of the methods used in Herrnstein and Murray's book The Bell Curve ; Glymour argues that new, more reliable methods of data analysis, based on Bayes nets representations, would lead to very different conclusions from those advocated by Herrnstein and Murray. 001387396 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387396 650_0 $$aPsychology$$xMethodology. 001387396 650_0 $$aPrediction theory. 001387396 650_0 $$aCausation. 001387396 653__ $$aCOGNITIVE SCIENCES/General 001387396 653__ $$aCOGNITIVE SCIENCES/Psychology/Cognitive Psychology 001387396 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387396 852__ $$bebk 001387396 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/4638.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001387396 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001387396 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1387396$$pGLOBAL_SET 001387396 980__ $$aBIB 001387396 980__ $$aEBOOK 001387396 982__ $$aEbook 001387396 983__ $$aOnline
