Chronological Standard Code-level Network Characterization

Any event happens at a certain time, so the information of this time is attached to the code of the event as its temporal marker. If this marker is a symbol to denote the order of the event directly, it can be called temporal sequential marker in this research. Each temporal sequential marker has a hierarchical network organization information. Through searching temporal sequential markers in such hierarchical network, a special form of reasoning, the orders of events can be decided. The natures of hierarchical network structure of such temporal sequential markers, and the process of searching under such structure are very important for human cognition. Therefore, in this research, we strove to find a new paradigm and perspective to the studies of them. On the basis of the findings of this research, the following comprehension of temporal sequential markers can be gotten:At first, temporal sequential markers with unordered display have the same effect of temporal sequential markers and relational markers with ordered display, therefore, they can be the main basis for human cognition of the order of events. Therefore, temporal sequential markers with unordered display as stimulus are most suitable for conducting successive experiments with the previous researchers, and are exempt from the disturbance of semantic orders. Temporal sequential markers with unordered display can be distributed more broadly to go beyond the limitation of working memory, so they are uniquely useful to explore structure of hierarchical network of t~emporal sequential markers. The representation of temporal sequential ~~iarkers is verbalSrepresentation, and this means that the items are not rearranged in the mind by the ~ubjccts, so they axe judged directly through their markers. In general, the paradigm used in this research is a useful method to explore temporal sequential markers undei?hierarchical network structure.Hr raising the efficiency ot the cognition of timc, the people should combine items into one chunk, this means, into a group when there are several Lens, and then, combine several smaller groups into one bigger group, and so on and so forth. This combination will lead to an organization with the hierarchical network structure. When several items are combined into groups?without a clear boundary, the distance effect will exist between two items with an interval of other two items. When several items were combined into groups with a clear boundary, the boundary effect will exist between two items in different groups. And when a hierarchical network is formed, the hierarchical effect will exist between two items in different layers. All these effects shows that temporal sequential markers are organized in accordance with the hierarchical network structure, that means, when several items are combined into a group, a higher hierarchy is formed: when several groups are combined into a bigger group, an even higher hierarchy is formed. In this hierarchical network organization, the information of upper layers is in the control over the information of lower layers. And the items of lower layers can obtain the sequential information of upper layers. In the representation of temporal sequential markers, such hierarchical network information is comprised. Therefore, once an item抯 hierarchical network representation of temporal sequential marker is available, the order of this item with other items can be judged. At last, the findings of this research are consistent with the semantic hierarchical network model initiated by Collins and Quillian, and consistent with the hierarchical network models of subjective temporal information by Lee and Estes, and of subjective temporal information by Hut tenlocher.The method process of direct judgment is taken mainly for the reasoning of the order of two items, but at necessary time, the process of calculation is taken also. If two items are separated by longer distance, they should be9divided at upper layer. Because the process of the hiera...
