Introduction to Cognitive Psychology01:20

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology

1.8K
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...

Cognitivism

2.3K
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...

Reason and Intuition

7.1K
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...

Psychosurgery

133
Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...

Information Processing Approach01:30

Information Processing Approach

215
The information-processing theory of cognitive development centers on fundamental mental processes, including attention, memory, and problem-solving skills. Researchers in this field examine how cognitive abilities, such as working memory, evolve and influence children's overall development. Studies indicate that children with stronger working memory tend to excel in reading comprehension, math, and problem-solving compared to peers with less efficient memory skills. Low working memory is...

Area of Science:

  • Computational psychiatry
  • Neuroscience
  • Mental health

Background:

  • Computational psychiatry models often neglect temporal dynamics and context.
  • This limitation hinders the integration of computational approaches into routine clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify heuristics for determining the importance of time and context in mental health problems.
  • To review advances in computational psychiatry that incorporate temporal dynamics and context.
  • To propose future directions for computational psychiatry.

Main Methods:

  • Developed three heuristics to assess the relevance of time and context for mental health issues.
  • Reviewed existing computational psychiatry literature on modeling state variation, domain-specific stimuli, and contextual differences.
  • Discussed complementary approaches like network science and complex systems.

Main Results:

  • Many mental health problems are characterized by complex temporal dynamics and contextual influences, not just core neurobiological mechanisms.
  • Modeling time and context is critical for developing clinically relevant computational psychiatry tools.
  • Advances include state-variation modeling, domain-specific stimuli, and contextual interpretation.

Conclusions:

  • Integrating temporal dynamics and context is essential for computational psychiatry to influence clinical practice.
  • Novel methods and interdisciplinary collaboration can drive the next generation of computational psychiatry.
  • Future research should focus on unifying computational psychiatry with adjacent fields for broader impact.
