Summary

In 1982, eleven days before Christmas, major American publishers tried to play Grinch and stop the popular practice of photocopying course readings. The publishers sued New York University (NYU) and a photocopying shop for copyright infringement, for compiling course packs. Reportedly, this was the first such legal action against universities, with NYU being “not necessarily the worst violator” but a “representative” target. Critics viewed the lawsuit as a tactic to force a settlement and “panic university libraries into signing up” with a collecting society. Eventually, a settlement was reached, and a new photocopying policy adopted by NYU. NYU agreed to seek permissions where none was previously taken. This sent ripples across US academia. Professors shied away from prescribing photocopied materials, while many universities emulated NYU.

Pothos & Busemeyer (P&B) argue how key concepts of quantum probability, for example, order/context, interference, superposition, and entanglement, can be used in cognitive modeling. Here, we suggest that these concepts can be extended to analyze neurophysiological measurements of cognitive tasks in humans, especially in functional neuroimaging investigations of large-scale brain networks.
