Embodied cognitive science
Embodied cognitive science is an interdisciplinary field of research, the aim of which is to explain the mechanisms underlying intelligent behavior. It comprises three main methodologies: the modeling of psychological and biological systems in a holistic manner that considers the mind and body as a single entity; the formation of a common set of general principles of intelligent behavior; and the experimental use of robotic agents in controlled environments.
Énaction
La notion d'énaction est une façon de concevoir la cognition qui met l'accent sur la manière dont les organismes et esprits humains s'organisent eux-mêmes en interaction avec l'environnement. L'approche théorique de la cognition selon la notion d'énaction, nommée , fut proposée par Gregory Bateson, Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela, Evan Thompson, et Eleanor Rosch. Elle est proche de la cognition située et de la cognition incarnée et est conçue comme une alternative au cognitivisme, au computationnalisme et au dualisme de Descartes.
Conceptual metaphor
In cognitive linguistics, conceptual metaphor, or cognitive metaphor, refers to the understanding of one idea, or conceptual domain, in terms of another. An example of this is the understanding of quantity in terms of directionality (e.g. "the price of peace is rising") or the understanding of time in terms of money (e.g. "I spent time at work today"). A conceptual domain can be any mental organization of human experience.
Embodied embedded cognition
Embodied embedded cognition (EEC) is a philosophical theoretical position in cognitive science, closely related to situated cognition, embodied cognition, embodied cognitive science and dynamical systems theory. The theory states that intelligent behaviour emerges from the interplay between brain, body and world. The world is not just the 'play-ground' on which the brain is acting. Rather, brain, body and world are equally important factors in the explanation of how particular intelligent behaviours come about in practice.
Situated cognition
Situated cognition is a theory that posits that knowing is inseparable from doing by arguing that all knowledge is situated in activity bound to social, cultural and physical contexts. Situativity theorists suggest a model of knowledge and learning that requires thinking on the fly rather than the storage and retrieval of conceptual knowledge. In essence, cognition cannot be separated from the context. Instead knowing exists, in situ, inseparable from context, activity, people, culture, and language.
Psychologie écologique
La psychologie écologique est une approche proposée par James J. Gibson centrée sur la relation entre l'animal et son environnement. En , le neuropsychiatre français Boris Cyrulnik publie « Des âmes et des saisons, psycho-écologie ». Il y reprend la notion de psychologie écologique, science à la croisée de l’éthologie, de la géographie humaine et de la psychologie. Ou comment un milieu impacte l’homme dans ses activités et sa psyché. James J. Gibson Edward S.
Neurosciences cognitives
Les neurosciences cognitives sont le domaine de recherche dans lequel sont étudiés les mécanismes neurobiologiques qui sous-tendent la cognition (perception, motricité, langage, mémoire, raisonnement, émotions...). C'est une branche des sciences cognitives qui fait appel pour une large part aux neurosciences, à la neuropsychologie, à la psychologie cognitive, à l' ainsi qu'à la modélisation.
Externalism
Externalism is a group of positions in the philosophy of mind which argues that the conscious mind is not only the result of what is going on inside the nervous system (or the brain), but also what occurs or exists outside the subject. It is contrasted with internalism which holds that the mind emerges from neural activity alone. Externalism is a belief that the mind is not just the brain or functions of the brain. There are different versions of externalism based on different beliefs about what the mind is taken to be.
Extended mind thesis
In philosophy of mind, the extended mind thesis (EMT) says that the mind does not exclusively reside in the brain or even the body, but extends into the physical world. The EMT proposes that some objects in the external environment can be part of a cognitive process and in that way function as extensions of the mind itself. Examples of such objects are written calculations, a diary, or a PC; in general, it concerns objects that store information. The EMT considers the mind to encompass every level of cognition, including the physical level.
Intrapersonal communication
Intrapersonal communication is communication with oneself or self-to-self communication. Examples are thinking to oneself "I'll do better next time" after having made a mistake or having an imaginary conversation with one's boss because one intends to leave work early. It is often understood as an exchange of messages in which the sender and the receiver is the same person. Some theorists use a wider definition that goes beyond message-based accounts and focuses on the role of meaning and making sense of things.
