Cognition is a general term covering all knowledge-related activities, research on cognition is the study of mental activity. Both cognitive content, but also the process. Cognition refers to the content you know what - concepts, facts, propositions, rules, and memory. Cognitive process refers to how you manipulate the contents of the mind - so that you explain the world around them, and find creative solutions to life's difficulties.
First, Cognitive
- Cognitive psychologists study mental processes and structures that enable you to perceive, use of language, reasoning, problem solving, judgment and decision-making.
- Measuring the complex tasks into mental processes based on the use of reaction investigator.
- Upon completion of a task, an additional step is often the psychological make people spend more time.
Second, the use of language
- Language users can not only generate language, language can also understand.
- Speaker design their words to suit a particular audience.
- Revealing slip of the tongue can lead to a lot of verbal planning process.
- Many languages use context to understand the process involves digestion ambiguity.
- Memory Representation significance began to be supplemented Propositions inference.
- Research focused on the evolution of language structure and grammar listeners design.
- Individual language spoken in deciding how their thinking may play a role.
Third, visual perception
- Visual representation can be used to supplement the propositions representation.
- Visual representation so that you can think of visual aspects of the surrounding environment.
- It is possible to form a visual representation of a combined speech and visual information.
Fourth, the problem is solved
- Problem solver must define the initial state, goal state and enable them to reach the target operating state from the initial state.
- Including deductive reasoning to draw conclusions from premises-based logic rules.
- Including inductive reasoning from the evidence based on the likelihood or probability to draw conclusions.
Fifth, judgment and decision-making
- Many judgments and decisions guided by heuristics, heuristic psychological shortcuts can help individuals to quickly find a solution.
- When the availability, and the anchor are representative error used, they can lead to errors.
- Possibility regret making some difficult decisions to make, with respect to individuals who meet the interests of maximizing's even more so.
