Any cognitive activity seems to be dominated by the perceptual aspects.

approach

As regards metaphor, the cognitive approach appears to share something of both semantics and pragmatics.

To teach this system effectively, it uses the cognitive approach .

The recent trend toward cognitive approaches to metaphor provides a means of formalizing such a conception.

My final reservation relates to the almost total neglect of cognitive approaches to the questions discussed.

There are two main schools of thought in this regard: the behaviourist approach and the cognitive approach.

aspect

The cognitive aspects of sensorimotor development evolve as a child acts on the environment.

As the cognitive aspects of intelligence are developing, there is a parallel development of affect.

First, Piaget did his research on and wrote primarily about the cognitive aspects of intellectual development and cognitive structure.

Piaget also argued that all behavior has both affective and cognitive aspects .

The cognitive aspect has three components: content, function, and structure.

capacity

In this view, decision makers lack the cognitive capacity and the comprehensive information that would enable them to calculate utilities rationally.

The important conclusion is that some of the cognitive capacities needed for language evolved long before humans.

development

Play, Dreams and Imitation in Childhood may be related to a whole series of studies of cognitive development by piaget.

Defenders have advanced to a state of cognitive dissonance , an awareness that beliefs conflict with evidence.

Of course, the recognition of cognitive dissonance still does not solve the problem.

But in 1959 something was wrong with this picture: cognitive dissonance .

Meanwhile, the cognitive dissonance of the experience should shock any uniformitarian in the audience fully awake.

function

Estrogen is said to enhance cognitive function .

It is precisely the integration of cybernetic mechanisms in a hierarchical order that enables animals to develop the more complex cognitive functions .

There is little doubt that higher cognitive functions are associated with complex social life and elaborate means of communication.

impairment

The complete lack of cognitive improvements leads them to suggest that cognitive impairment is intrinsically associated with long-term morbidity in schizophrenia.

Table 4.5 shows that, as we would expect, cognitive impairment increased over the year in all samples.

map

Now consider an ingenious experiment which almost forces us to suppose that an animal has a cognitive map .

Part of the cognitive map of Easton's section police is their recipe knowledge.

Suppose that a cognitive map , similar to that in Figure 10, exists in the brain.

The rats used their cognitive maps to achieve the goal, showing they had learned the maze.

We do not know how cognitive maps are stored in the brain.

The other is to build up a cognitive map of the region to be traversed.

These cases suggest that animals can form cognitive maps .

Consider first a case in which no cognitive map is needed.

model

Models of face processing Finally, I want to move from cognitive models of word recognition to cognitive models of face recognition.

The cognitive model proposes a direct causal link: participation brings about enhanced information on goals, and so performance is improved.

So current cognitive models of language, memory, perception and so forth are also basically neutral to the question of consciousness.

process

These experiments tell us a great deal about certain aspects of cognitive processes , particularly their relative timing or sequencing.

Other models seek to emphasize the computational aspects of memory, thought, and cognitive processes .

So far, we have discussed ways in which different kinds of words may be pronounced using a range of cognitive processes .

Can the model help explain how human cognitive processes work?

A classic example of cognitive processes is that of animal memory and the demonstration of subsequent decisions based thereon.

The cognitive challenge Psychobiologists have reacted to the rediscovery of cognitive processes in two ways.

The difference is in the degree to which internal, cognitive processes are seen as being involved in producing the response.

psychology

Holzner however describes the cognitive processes of the individual, borrowing both from cognitive psychology and from the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty.

The research will draw on and integrate current work in artificial intelligence, linguistics, and cognitive psychology .

Associative priming is a well known phenomenon in cognitive psychology .

science

If functionalism is false, then the success of the cognitive sciences is a massive scientific fluke.

Language is acquiring increased visibility in the field of cognitive science .

But cognitive science is not merely about information technology.

skill

Psychologists use tests that examine the cognitive skills of the child.

For each cognitive skill which humans possess, they must also possess its opposite.

The study will test several hypotheses about the relation between perceptual and cognitive skills .

structure

This is because metaphorical mappings, and hence readings, are ultimately constrained by what appear to be universal cognitive structures .

That is, affective structures are constructed as cognitive structures are constructed.

They will possess the same cognitive structures and whatever maturational schedules thereof that underlie hearing children's language acquisition.

Concurrent with the development of cognitive structures is the development of affective structures.

This reduces social and historical circumstances to modifying influences on a cognitive structure predisposed to differentiation and even discrimination.

As development proceeds, egocentrism slowly wanes and is revived in a different form when new cognitive structures are attained.

Logical operations are constructed, as are all cognitive structures , out of prior structures as a function of assimilation and accommodation.

Flavell writes: Interposed between function and content, Piaget postulates the existence of cognitive structures .

system

The selected novel information is then fed to the cognitive system .

theory

Or maybe any conceivable account is translatable into cognitive theory , which then loses all empirical content.

He has traveled widely, lecturing on such obscure but important topics as cryptography, intellectual property and cognitive theory .

The best cognitive theory we have motivates the best valid interpretation we can get.

But cognitive theories' dominance within psychological discourse induces many feminists to recapitulate these theories , overlooking their subtler gender biases.

therapy

In our second study we sought to confirm our findings that group and individual cognitive therapy were equally effective.

In this sense cognitive therapy might sometimes serve a preventive function.

Though the early stages of cognitive therapy are primarily behavioural, one often has to introduce cognitive material in order to facilitate tasks.

In their entirety the cognitive therapy techniques of Beck and his colleagues offer a complete system of psychotherapy.
