Systemic Cognition Symposium
Event Information
Description
It is our pleasure to invite you to the first edition of the Systemic Cognition symposium.
This symposium is co-organized by the Systemic Cognition lab (https://syscoglab.com/, Department of Psychology) and the Decisions, Attitudes, Risk and Thinking research group (https://dartresearch.org/, Department of Management) and will take place at Kingston University on 25 July 2017 (Kingston Hill Campus).
The aim of the symposium will be to explore the theoretical and methodological challenges arising from the systemic study of cognition; that is, cognition as it emerges from the interactivity between an agent and the elements of the system within which he or she is embedded. Systemic elements may include other social agents, organisational and cultural practices and/or material artefacts.
Topics of interest
Interactivity and higher cognitive processes (perception, attention, memory, learning, language, thinking & reasoning, judgment & decision-making, planning & problem-solving; creativity & innovation); managerial and organisational cognition; distributed cognition; situated cognition; cognitive and behavioural process-tracing methods; observation methods.
