Cognition arises from interconnected brain systems, not isolated modules. This integrated view highlights how anticipation across domains is shaped by social context and development.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Science
  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental Psychology

Background:

  • Traditional models view cognition as modular.
  • This perspective overlooks interdependencies between brain systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Propose a new framework for understanding cognition.
  • Illustrate this framework using the process of anticipation.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis of cognitive systems.
  • Application of the framework to anticipation across multiple domains.

Main Results:

  • Cognition emerges from dependencies across brain systems (goal management, perception, action, memory, reward, affect, learning).
  • Anticipation is a cross-domain, coordinated process.

  • Anticipation is crucial for situated action and social interaction.

    • Conclusions:

    • Human cognition is an emergent property of interconnected systems.
    • Anticipation is deeply influenced by social evolution, context, and development.
