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...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Science

Background:

  • Patients diagnosed with vegetative state or minimally conscious state may exhibit volition detectable via neural responses.
  • Assessing higher cognitive processes in these patients remains a significant challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop electroencephalography (EEG) paradigms for bedside cognitive assessment without motor responses.
  • To evaluate the sensitivity of these EEG paradigms in healthy individuals.

Main Methods:

  • Development of novel EEG paradigms targeting core cognitive functions.
  • Utilizing event-related potentials (ERPs) for analysis.
  • Testing in a cohort of healthy controls.

Main Results:

  • The EEG method reliably identifies attentional abilities.
  • The approach accurately assesses working memory capacity.
  • Complex grammatical reasoning can be evaluated using this technique.

Conclusions:

  • The developed EEG paradigms can form a brain-based battery for higher cognition assessment.
  • This approach is suitable for patients with severe motor impairments or disorders of consciousness.
  • Offers a promising avenue for understanding cognition in challenging patient populations.
