Introduction: Essays in honour of Doug Mewhort.
On June 7, 2012, a meeting was held at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada to honour Professor Douglas John Kerr Mewhort, a recognised authority on human memory and computational cognitive modelling. This issue is a collection of articles from that meeting. Each article in this issue is written by a student or colleague. The common themes amongst the articles- computational theory, empirical rigour, numeric sophistication, and respect for the priority of experimental data over theory-are characteristically Doug. On behalf of all contributors to this special issue, we wish Doug productive and happy years to come. There is little doubt that he will continue to influence and challenge our science.
