Summary

Dominant analogical reasoning models predict longer transfer times with cross-mapping. However, this study found cross-mapping does not affect transfer time, challenging the necessity of a full mapping phase for analogical transfer.

  • Psychology

Background:

  • Dominant models of analogical reasoning posit that analogical transfer necessitates establishing a complete one-to-one correspondence between base and target problems.
  • These models predict increased transfer time when cross-mappings occur, where elements play different roles across problems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of cross-mapping on the time required for analogical transfer.
  • To challenge the established notion that a full mapping phase is a prerequisite for successful analogical transfer.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental manipulation of mapping difficulty, comparing cross-mapping conditions with control conditions.
  • Measurement of the time taken to transfer properties from a base problem to a target problem.

Main Results:

  • The time required for analogical transfer was not significantly affected by the presence of cross-mapping, even when the mapping task was more difficult.
  • Results contradict predictions from dominant models that emphasize the role of complete one-to-one correspondence.

Conclusions:

  • The mapping phase, as traditionally defined, is not a necessary condition for analogical transfer.
  • Analogical transfer may occur even when direct one-to-one correspondences are not fully established, suggesting alternative mechanisms at play.
