Description: The notion of spreading activation is a prevalent metaphor in the cognitive sciences. 
    This package provides the tools for cognitive scientists and psychologists to conduct computer simulations 
    that implement spreading activation in a network representation. The algorithmic method implemented in 'spreadr' 
    subroutines follows the approach described in Vitevitch, Ercal, and Adagarla (2011, Frontiers), 
    who viewed activation as a fixed cognitive resource that could spread among nodes that were connected to 
    each other via edges or connections (i.e., a network). See Vitevitch, M. S., Ercal, G., & Adagarla, B. (2011).
