    High-Altitude Rock Shelters and Settlements in an African Alpine Ecosystem: The Bale Mountains National Park, Ethiopia

    No full text
    This first survey of rock shelters and settlements in the Bale Mountains in Ethiopia is a baseline assessment for further research into the settlement history of Africa’s largest alpine highlands. Extensive GPS-based mapping and interviews resulted in two detailed maps, a catalogue of profiles, and complete photographic documentation. In total, 331 rock shelters (four permanently inhabited, 51 seasonally inhabited, and 276 currently uninhabited) and 870 settlements (207 permanently inhabited, 449 seasonally inhabited, 214 uninhabited) were recorded together with information about the activities and livelihoods of the inhabitants of the current settlements. This 2015 study was part of the Ethiopian-European research project “The mountain exile hypothesis – how humans benefited from and re-shaped African high-altitude ecosystems during Quaternary climate changes” (DFG FOR 2358). It was designed to support future management plans in this internationally important conservation area that has recently faced increasing land-use pressure and the threat of degradation.DFG1.

    Implicit Learning and Tacit Knowledge: an Essay on the Cognitive Unconscious

    No full text
    In this new volume in the Oxford Psychology Series, the author presents a highly readable account of the cognitive unconscious, focusing in particular on the problem of implicit learning. Implicit learning is defined as the acquisition of knowledge that takes place independently of the conscious attempts to learn and largely in the absence of explicit knowledge about what was acquired. One of the core assumptions of this argument is that implicit learning is a fundamental, “root” process, one that lies at the very heart of the adaptive behavioural repertoire of every complex organism. The author's goals are to outline the essential features of implicit learning that have emerged from the many studies that have been carried out in a variety of experimental laboratories over the past several decades, to present the various alternative perspectives on this issue that have been proposed by other researchers and to try to accommodate these views with his own, to structure the literature so that it can be seen in the context of standard heuristics of evolutionary biology, to present the material within a functionalist approach and to try to show why the experimental data should be seen as entailing particular epistemological perspectives, and to present implicit processing as encompassing a general and ubiquitous set of operations that have wide currency and several possible applications. Chapter 1 begins with the core problem under consideration in this book, a characterization of “implicit learning” as it has come to be used in the literature. Reber puts this seemingly specialized topic into a general framework and suggests a theoretical model based on standard heuristics of evolutionary biology. In his account, Reber weaves a capsule history of interest in and work on the cognitive unconscious. Chapter 2 turns to a detailed overview of the experimental work on the acquisition of implicit knowledge, which currently is of great interest. Chapter 3 develops the evolutionary model within which one can see learning and cognition as richly intertwining issues and not as two distinct fields with one dominating the other. Finally, Chapter 4 explores a variety of entailments and speculations concerning implicit cognitive processes and their general role in the larger scope of human performanc

    Em 1918 Sérgio Milliet lançou, com Charles Reber, En singeant...: pastiches littéraires, segundo livro de sua lavra em solo suíço (um ano antes, saíra Par le sentier pela editora Le Carmel). O autor publicaria mais duas obras antes de retornar ao Brasil: Le départ sous la pluie e Œil de bœuf. O objetivo deste estudo é, à luz das reflexões sobre o pastiche propostas por Genette, Decout e Aron, apresentar – passando em revista o contexto de publicação e o rol de homenageados com as imitações – comentários acerca de um título que permanece desconhecido dos leitores e ignorado pela crítica.In 1918 Sérgio Milliet released, with Charles Reber, En singeant...: pastiches littéraires, the second work he wrote in Switzerland (a year before the publishing house Le Carmel had published Par le sentier). The author published two other volumes before returning to Brasil: Le départ sous la pluie and Œil de bœuf. The purpose of the present study is to present comments about a literary work remains unknown to readers and ignored by critics. The said study will be guided by the reflections on pastiche proposed by Genette, Decout and Aron, and will review the context of publication and the list of those honored by the pastiche imitations

    Rapid formation and flexible expressionof memories of subliminal word pairs

    No full text
    Our daily experiences are incidentally and rapidly encoded as episodic memories. Episodic memories consist of numerous associations (e.g., who gave what to whom where and when) that can be expressed flexibly in new situations. Key features of episodic memory are speed of encoding, its associative nature, and its representational flexibility. Another defining feature of human episodic memory has been consciousness of encoding/retrieval. Here, we show that humans can rapidly form associations between subliminal words and minutes later retrieve these associations even if retrieval words were conceptually related to, but different from encoding words. Because encoding words were presented subliminally, associative encoding and retrieval were unconscious. Unconscious association formation and retrieval were dependent on a preceding understanding of task principles. We conclude that key computations underlying episodic memory – rapid encoding and flexible expression of associations - can operate outside consciousness
