COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY
Cognitive Psychology vs Cognitive Science
Cognitive psychology
redominantly concerned with applied psychology
the understanding of psychological phenomena
Application
used in the applied field of clinical psychology
Cognitive psychologists
heavily involved in running psychological experiments involving human participants
Goal
Gathering information related to how the human mind takes in
processes
acts upon inputs received from the outside world
Cognitive science
predominantly concerned with a much broader scope
philosophy
linguistics
anthropology
Subtopic
neuroscience
particularly with artificial intelligence
provides the corpus of information feeding the theories used by cognitive psychologists
Research
involves non-human subjects
delve into areas which would come under ethical scrutiny if performed on human participants
implanting devices in the brains of rats, to track the firing of neurons while the rat performs a particular task
Application
highly involved in the area of artificial intelligence and its application to the understanding of mental processes
Cognitive processes
The mental processes that affect behavior has 3 stages
Sensory memory storage
holds sensory information
Short-term memory storage
holds information temporarily for analysis and retrieves information from the Long-term memory.
Long-term memory
holds information over an extended period of time which receives information from the short-term memory.
Metacognition
Déjà Vu
Cryptomnesia
False Fame Effect
Validity effect
Imagination inflation
Language
Perception
physical senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, touch, and proprioception) as well as the cognitive processes involved in interpreting those senses
Attention
identify irrelevant data and filter it out, enabling significant data to be distributed to the other mental processes
Criticisms
Lack of cohesion
competing models that questioned information-processing approaches to cognitive functioning such as Decision Making and Behavioral Science
Lack of empirical support
behaviorist critics held that the empiricism it pursued was incompatible with the concept of internal mental states
continues to gather evidence of direct correlations between physiological brain activity and putative mental states
Applications
Abnormal psychology
Aaron T. Beck, father of cognitive therapy, a particular type of CBT treatment.
Besk put his reasoning for the treatment of depression by means of therapy or therapy and antidepressants versus using a pharmacological-only approach.
Social psychology
development of multiple social information processing (SIP) models
children who possess a greater ability to process social information more often display higher levels of socially acceptable behavior
five steps that an individual proceeds through when evaluating interactions with other individuals
how the person interprets cues is key to their reactionary process
Developmental psychology
the Theory of Mind (ToM)
deals specifically with the ability of an individual to effectively understand and attribute cognition to those around them
a matter of metacognition, or thinking about one's thoughts
The child must be able to recognize that they have their own thoughts and in turn, that others possess thoughts of their own.
Educational psychology
Metacognition
broad concept encompassing all manners of one's thoughts and knowledge about their own thinking
Declarative knowledge
persons 'encyclopedic' knowledge base
procedural knowledge
specific knowledge relating to performing particular tasks
The application of these cognitive paradigms to education attempts to augment a student's ability to integrate declarative knowledge into newly learned procedures in an effort to facilitate accelerated learning.
Knowledge organization
understanding of how knowledge is organized in the brain has been a major focus within the field of education in recent years
The hierarchical method of organizing information
how that maps well onto the brain's memory are concepts that have proven extremely beneficial in classrooms
Personality psychology
The approach focuses on the formation of what it believes to be faulty schemata, centralized on judgmental biases and general cognitive errors.
Modern perspectives
Intuition
determined to be fast and automatic
strong emotional bonds included in the reasoning process
Reasoning
was slower and much more volatile
being subject to conscious judgments and attitudes
History
Debates ensued through the 19th century
human thought was solely experiential (empiricism), or included innate knowledge (rationalism)
George Berkeley and John Locke on the side of empiricism
Immanuel Kant on the side of nativism.
mid to late 19th century
development of psychology as a scientific discipline
Wernicke's aphasia.
Carl Wernicke's discovery of an area thought to be mostly responsible for comprehension of language
Broca's aphasia
Paul Broca's discovery of the area of the brain largely responsible for language production
