Extracting spooky-activation-at-a-distance from considerations of entanglement
pp. 71-83
Abstract
Following an early claim by Nelson & McEvoy [19] suggesting that word associations can display "spooky action at a distance behaviour', a serious investigation of the potentially quantum nature of such associations is currently underway. This paper presents a simple quantum model of a word association system. It is shown that a quantum model of word entanglement can recover aspects of both the Spreading Activation model and the Spooky model of word association experiments.
