Cognitivism

1.4K
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

503
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

6.5K
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...

Perception01:28

Perception

471
Perception is a fundamental psychological process that enables individuals to organize, interpret, and consciously experience sensory information. This process is crucial for understanding and interacting with the world around us. It includes both bottom-up and top-down processing, each playing a distinct role in how we perceive our environment.
Bottom-up processing begins at the sensory level, where receptors detect external environmental stimuli. These could include the tactile sensation of...

Structuralism01:26

Structuralism

647
Structuralism, an early psychological theory developed by Wilhelm Wundt and his student Edward Bradford Titchener, sought to dissect the human mind into its most fundamental components. Wundt's groundbreaking work in his laboratory set the stage for Titchener to define structuralism's goal as cataloging the "atoms" of the mind—sensations, images, and feelings—akin to how chemists identify elements of matter.
Titchener's approach to structuralism was unique. He...

Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

1.6K
Perception is influenced by perceptual set, context, motivation, and emotion. Perceptual set, or perceptual expectancy, refers to the tendency to perceive things in a particular way, influenced by previous experiences and expectations. This phenomenon affects the interpretation of stimuli, creating a set of mental tendencies and assumptions that impact sensory perceptions of sound, taste, touch, and sight.
An illustrative example of a perceptual set is the scenario where an airline pilot told...

Summary

Common memory processes may not fully explain involuntary autobiographical memory and déjà vu. Retrieval and conscious experience likely involve distinct processes for both phenomena.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Neuroscience of Memory

Background:

  • Autobiographical memory and déjà vu are complex phenomena.
  • Previous theories suggest shared memory processes underlie both involuntary autobiographical memory and déjà vu experiences.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a dissociable model for the cognitive processes involved in involuntary autobiographical memory and déjà vu.
  • To challenge the notion that common memory processes fully account for these experiences.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical analysis of existing memory retrieval and conscious experience models.
  • Conceptual framework development based on dissociability principles.

Main Results:

  • Evidence suggests a potential dissociation between memory retrieval processes and the generation of conscious experience.
  • Involuntary autobiographical memory and déjà vu may arise from distinct, rather than common, underlying processes.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed model offers a new perspective on the cognitive architecture of involuntary autobiographical memory and déjà vu.
  • Further research is needed to empirically validate the dissociability of retrieval and conscious experience processes.
