There are some links that make no sense in the context of this article. Specifically, there are links to leveling and sharpening which lead to land surveying and blade sharpening, respectively. I assume that these originally pointed to other links that were more relevant. The sharpening page has no disambiguation, so perhaps the original articles were moved? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mstachowsky ( talk • contribs) 12:19, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
are choices (specifically those manifesting into an action) fall into the realm of cognition or "cognitive processes"? BriEnBest ( talk) 12:09, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
i'm sorry about my above post - i had not read all parts of the discussion when i posted it. I suppose choices do not fall under the realm of cognition (is this correct?). However, I am really interested in finding out more about how thinking becomes a choice (meaning one manifested in action). Thank you so much. BriEnBest ( talk) 12:13, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
We read:- Other concepts which seem to have arisen only recently (in the last century) include increased expectations for human rights. In this case, an example of an 'emergent behavior' might perhaps be the use of the mass media to publicize inequities in the human condition, perhaps using highly portable cameras and telephones.
Sorry but I do not understand how portable cameras and telephones would be used. Mikeo1938 ( talk) 18:14, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
I have deleted the following two subtopics from the end of the article because they are so remote from the topic of this article as to be irrelevant.
One famous image, Earthrise, taken during Apollo 8, the first Apollo mission to the Moon, shows planet Earth in a single photograph. Earthrise is now the icon for Earth Day, which did not arise until after the image became widespread. At this level, an example of an 'emergent behavior' might be concern for Spaceship Earth, as encouraged by the development of orbiting space observatories etc.

The second subtopic I have removed was:
It is possible to find other examples of critical mass necessary to develop a concept. For example, a nascent coalition of individuals might fail in the implementation of some agreement among them; but in the words of Ward Cunningham, the inventor of the Wiki-wiki Web:
In other words, when the organization adapted, the concept adapted and survived the incipient failure mode.
-- AlotToLearn ( talk) 00:16, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Is anyone else bothered by the "cognition" template? It seems like original research to me. Are there are any sources that claim that the essential topics associated with cognition are "Sentience", "Consciousness", "Sapience", "Self-awareness", "Concept" and "Cognitive linguistics". Please discuss on the talk page of the template. I think it should be removed. ---- CharlesGillingham ( talk) 05:20, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

The article has very few citations, I have placed tags on the article to make readers/writers aware. -- Gnepets ( talk) 04:15, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
I don't think that it should be removed yet. There are a number of central ideas that are not supported yet. Not all that are there now are well-chosen. Kind regards, User:㓟 - (pi) ( talk) 07:13, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
I have removed that section. It was unsourced and tagged as needing sources for months, and also doesn't have anything to do with cognition as I have learned about it. This section should not go back without having proper sources provided (I actually don't think it should go back at all). Looie496 ( talk) 19:56, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
If that’s a TV, this must be the den; To the brain, scenes are sums of objects by Laura Sanders October 22nd, 2011; Vol.180 #9 (p. 16) Also related Knowledge. 97.87.29.188 ( talk) 23:02, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
In mental terms, certain scenes are sums of their objects, researchers report online September 4 in Nature Neuroscience. The results help explain how people quickly and accurately recognize complicated scenes such as playgrounds, kitchens and traffic intersections. Much of what scientists know about vision comes from studies of how people see simple objects in isolation, such as a line floating on a white screen, says cognitive neuroscientist Dirk Bernhardt-Walther of Ohio State University. The new work, in contrast, deals with messy, real-world scenes. “It’s an awesome study,” he says.
From a reader's POV, I want to ask question: Section: Cognition#Piaget.27s_theory_of_cognitive_development. He believed that humans are unique in comparison to animals because we have the ability to do "abstract symbolic reasoning.". - what is "abstract symbolic reasoning"? Can you add a short description in the article? You can add a {{tb}} in my talk page! -- Tito Dutta Message 04:54, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
Latin and Greek, as closely related Indo-European languages, share a common PIE vocabulary. There is no evidence that 'nosco' was 'borrowed' from the Greek, any more that the Gothic 'kunnan' was 'borrowed or that the Greek was 'borrowed' from the Sanskrit or the Persian. ( Pamour ( talk) 20:31, 4 July 2012 (UTC))
I'm editing this page for my senior lab in Clemson University. A lot of my editing will focus on the history of cognitive psychology, a very brief one since there is already a cognitive psych page here on wikipedia. Also I think it would be beneficial to add some example cognitive experiments and the theories behind them. Perhaps it will spark interest in readers to further research the subject. Mshepha ( talk) 14:42, 26 February 2013 (UTC)mshepha Mshepha ( talk) 14:42, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
Within the article, it should be clearly distinguished between cognition and the study of cognition (e.g., origins of cognition ≠ origins of the study of cognition). Would it be a good idea to combine the new sections with the subsection "Psychology" and make clear that they are about the latter? 㓟 ( talk) 12:03, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
The article states:
Thomas Aquinas .. divided the study of behavior into two broad categories: cognitive (how we know the world), and affective (how we understand the world via feelings and emotions)
There is no specific reference given for this statement, and while I believe it to be true, it seems so significant as to require a reference to specific piece of Thomas's writings.
Would anyone help?

You may find it helpful while reading or editing articles to look at a bibliography of Intelligence Citations, posted for the use of all Wikipedians who have occasion to edit articles on human intelligence and related issues. I happen to have circulating access to a huge academic research library at a university with an active research program in these issues (and to another library that is one of the ten largest public library systems in the United States) and have been researching these issues since 1989. You are welcome to use these citations for your own research. You can help other Wikipedians by suggesting new sources through comments on that page. It will be extremely helpful for articles on human intelligence to edit them according to the Wikipedia standards for reliable sources for medicine-related articles, as it is important to get these issues as well verified as possible. -- WeijiBaikeBianji ( talk, how I edit) 15:11, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
I think this page misses a section on embodiment in cognition, i.e. how biological factors affect cognition, both in animals and humans. Otherwise it seems that only social factors play the role. Verib ( talk) 08:30, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
Specifically, that of Hermann Ebbinghaus. His en.Wikipedia article spells his name with the terminal double "n", which is standard German spelling. The wikiarticle History of Psychology agrees. Anglo/American authors have a way of dropping "extra" letters. I believe this man always spelled his name in the German manner, so I intend to correct it. Rags ( talk) 08:30, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I just wanted to put out a statement of intention for my edits to come. I intend to make the psychology section more oriented toward how different lines of psychological reasoning have tackled concepts of cognition. I would also like to eventually add a section on philosophy of mind as the wikiproject seems to deem it necessary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MatthewSchaublin ( talk • contribs) 18:00, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I was visiting this page looking for resources in the citations, when one source caught my eye and raised some questions. First of all, I know that primary sources are not preferred citations, but also the article itself is explicitly funded by something called the Wild Blueberry Association of North America, which also provided the samples used in the experiment. I don't have time at the moment to look through all of the links, but if they're all like this, what would the community like to do with the claims in this article? I include the relevant text from the research link below for those who do not have access (underlining added by me for emphasis):
We appreciate the support of the Wild Blueberry Association of North America for their provision of the wild blueberry powder used in this study. Further, we thank the South East Doctoral Training Centre and the Wild Blueberry Association for their financial support. This work is part of an ESRC Case funded studentship. We also thank the participants and school staff who accommodated this research.
