Can language models learn from explanations in context? (2022, methodology): “Because we were inspired by cognitive work on human use of explanation (e.g. Lom-brozo and Carey, 2006; Ahn et al., 1992), and given accumulating evidence that LMs predict a great deal of human neural language processing (Schrimpf et al., 2021; Goldstein et al., 2022), it is natural to ask whether…”

Reviving Inert Knowledge: Analogical Abstraction Supports Relational Retrieval of Past Events (2009, background): “However, it remains an open question whether other methods of encouraging deep processing, such as self-explanation ( Ahn, Brewer, & Mooney, 1992; Chi & VanLehn, 1991), focusing on predictive features (Johnson & Seifert, 1992), attempting to derive the principle, or providing perceptual simulation ”
Why are different features central for natural kinds and artifacts?: the role of causal status in determining feature centrality. (1998, unknown): “Although such a domain-general approach can sometimes be useful, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated the effect of domain-specific knowledge in categorization (e.g. Carey, 1985; Murphy and Medin, 1985; Pazzani, 1991; Ahn et al., 1992; Wattenmaker, 1995).”
Using example problems to improve student learning in algebra: Differentiating between correct and incorrect examples (2013, background): “) Second, because exposure to more of the same type of correct examples may not be necessary for learning when students are providing explanations (Ahn et al., 1992), but exposure to varied solution strategies for solving the same type of problem may promote flexibility in”
A symbolic-connectionist theory of relational inference and generalization. (2003, background): “Ahn et al. investigated the extent to which college students could abstract schematic knowledge of a complex novel concept from a single instance under various presentation conditions. The presented instance illustrated an unfamiliar social ritual, such as the potlatch ceremony of natives of the Pac”

Tell me why! - Explanations support learning of relational and causal structure (2021, background): “Explanations play many roles in human learning, such as enabling efficient learning, even from a single example (Ahn et al., 1992).”
Tell me why! Explanations support learning relational and causal structure (2021, background): “planations can enable efficient, generalizable learning, even from a single example (Ahn et al., 1992).”
