1. How biologically plausible are artificial neural networks?
2. What is the central claim of the dynamical systems hypothesis? How plausible do you find it?
3. Dynamical models seem suited for examining the development of skills like walking. Will dynamical modeling prove fruitful for other phenomena of interest in cognitive science?
• Explain three circumstances where a researcher would choose a longitudinal study over a cross-sectional study.
• Identify two advantages and two disadvantages of a longitudinal study and a cross-sectional study, giving examples of each.
• Then, provide a specific example of a question that could be addressed with a longitudinal study and explain why that developmental design is preferred.
