Cognitivism

Cognitivism

Cognitive psychology emerged as a significant field in the mid-20th century. It focused on understanding humans' internal mental processes. This approach emphasizes how people perceive, remember, think, and solve problems—elements critical to human cognition.
Previously dominated by behaviorism, which prioritized observable behaviors and largely ignored mental processes, psychology transformed in the 1950s. Cognitive psychologists argue that understanding how we think and process...

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology

Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology dedicated to examining how people think. It attempts to explain how and why we think the way we do by studying the interactions among human thinking, emotion, creativity, language, and problem-solving, as well as other cognitive processes. Cognitive psychology studies how information is processed and manipulated in remembering, thinking, and knowing.
This field emerged in the mid-20th century, following a period dominated by behaviorism, which...

Reason and Intuition

Reason and Intuition

The human brain processes information for decision-making using one of two routes: an intuitive system and a rational system (Epstein, 1994; popularized by Kahneman, 2011 as System 1 and System 2, respectively). The intuitive system is quick, impulsive, and operates with minimal effort, relying on emotions or habits to provide cues for what to do next, while the rational system is logical, analytical, deliberate, and methodical. Research in neuropsychology suggests that the...

Area of Science:

Cognitive Neuroscience
Phenomenology
Neuroscience

Background:

Neurophenomenology aims to integrate neural and experiential data but faces practical implementation difficulties.
A key challenge is the disparity in descriptive levels between detailed experience and coarser neural measures.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a new framework for neurophenomenology by addressing the limitations of current research methods.
To establish a foundation for microcognitive science by bridging neural and experiential micro-dynamics.

Main Methods:

Utilizing human intra-cerebral EEG (iEEG) for high-precision neural micro-dynamics.
Employing disciplined elicitation techniques for accessing experiential micro-dynamics.

Main Results:

The proposed approach enables the investigation of human cognition at the subsecond level.
It facilitates the combination of neural and experiential data with millimetric and millisecond precision.

Conclusions:

This microcognitive science approach offers a practical implementation of neurophenomenology.
It paves the way for more integrated and precise investigations into the neural and experiential basis of cognition.
