Abstract:
We report an example class practice that introduces the model-based exercises into a psychology class in which participants investigate the serial position effect of the human memory. To the class, a rule-based cognitive model that simulates human memory processes was introduced. The participants themselves manipulated the parameters of the model and performed simulations that examined psychological experiments with a variety of experimental settings and experiments by participants of various working memory capabilities. Analysis confirmed that about two-thirds of the participants experienced good exploration processes and successfully compiled the research reports.
