Original abstract

Shared meaning in language requires people to learn and agree on categories. We ask how characteristics of agents' memories change the emergence and evolution of shared meaning. Without a coordination game, models of conceptual semantics cannot explain how shared meaning emerges and changes in groups of people; however, existing games assume that players share payoffs in a partnership setting. We model conceptual alignment as a non-partnership game and illustrate differences in actual and perceived conceptual convergence from counterfactual simulations using agents with varying levels of adaptiveness and memory degradation. We found that adaptive players achieved actual convergence faster and had closer final conceptual regions than non-adaptive players, while non-adaptive players perceived convergence earlier. Weighing novel information less over time resulted in more stable agreements than fixing the weight of novel information. Memory features are critical to the emergence and evolution of actual and perceived convergence.
