克服几何相似性的实证挑战：基于模型的回顾

Similarity is fundamental to cognition, shaping both foundational and higher-order processes. Cognitive theories often adopt a geometric approach, where similarity is defined by the distance or angle between objects in a psychological space, successfully explaining many perceived similarity relations. However, the validity of such geometric similarity models has been questioned by diverse empirical challenges, such as violations of the metric axioms (minimality, symmetry, and triangle inequality), the common features effect (common features increasing similarity), contextual effects (similarit
