TYPES OF CONCEPT PAPER

Implicit concept
Related to what psychologist call prototypes, its
purpose is to store casual information, which traditional
prototype theories leave out, and because a lot of
traditional prototypes theories are formulated in ways
that recommend they contain explicit information. And
implicit explains one range of phenomena.
The term implicit is used to express something indirectly or implied.
This means that the scenario under consideration has not been
stated.

Something is explicit when people cannot understand it because it is

not directly stated but is either suggested in the wording.

Sentence example;
He implicitly said he likes yellow trousers by saying she loves all
colors but white.

In the sentence above, the man states that he likes all trouser colors
but white. While he does not directly say he loves yellow trousers, he
implicitly does because yellow is not white.
explicit concept
May encode statistical and casual information, but more
significantly, they may encode syntactic information, definitional
information, and no matter what is needed for the language
faculty to process them. Explicit concepts are essential for
explicit cognition – the distinctively human ability to use
language, represent unobservable, nonexistent, abstract, and ad
hoc aspects of the world, and conduct linguistic inferences.
Explicit concept explains a separate range of phenomena.
Explicit is used to define a situation that has been
thoroughly elaborated and expressed without leaving
anything untouched. Something is said to be explicit when
there is no room for confusion when performing a specific
task.

Sentence example;
The teacher was explicit on who should be punished.
The word explicit has been used in the above sentence to
demonstrate something that has been clearly and
unambiguously expressed.
From the definition of explicit and implicit, the
difference in the description of the two terms can be
detected. Implicit is used to express the implied
meaning that does not exist. The meaning of an
implicit sentence is suggested and does not exist.

On the other hand, explicitly expresses the actual

meaning of the sentence. This means that anything
that is communicated by an explicit phrase is the
direct meaning that is correctly stated without any
ambiguity.
