Social Cognition How Individuals Construct Social Reality

Social Cognition How Individuals Construct Social Reality

Social cognition is a key area of social psychology which focuses on cognitive processes that are involved when individuals make sense of and navigate in their social world. For instance individuals need to understand what they perceive they learn and recall information from memory they form judgments and decisions they communicate with others and they regulate their behavior. While all of these topics are also key to other fields of psychological research it’s the social world—which is dynamic complex and often ambiguous—that creates particular demands. This accessible book introduces the basic themes within social cognition and asks questions such as: How do individuals think and feel about themselves and others? How do they make sense of their social environment? How do they interact with others in their social world? The book is organized along an idealized sequence of social information processing that starts at perceiving and encoding and moves on to learning judging and communicating. It covers not only processes internal to the individual but also facets of the environment that constrain cognitive processing. Throughout the book student learning is fostered with examples additional materials and discussion questions. With its subdivision in ten chapters the book is suitable both for self-study and as companion material for those teaching a semester-long course. This is the ideal comprehensive introduction to this thriving and captivating field of research for students of psychology. | Social Cognition How Individuals Construct Social Reality

Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

How do conscious experience subjectivity and free will arise from the brain and the body? Even in the late 20th century consciousness was considered to be beyond the reach of science. Now understanding the neural mechanisms underlying consciousness is recognized as a key objective for 21st century science. The cognitive neuroscience of consciousness is a fundamentally multidisciplinary enterprise involving powerful new combinations of functional brain imaging computational modelling theoretical innovation and basic neurobiology. Its progress will be marked by new insights not only into the complex brain mechanisms underlying consciousness but also by novel clinical approaches to a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders. These innovations are well represented by the contents of the present volume. A target article by Victor Lamme puts forward the contentious position that neural evidence should trump evidence from behaviour and introspection in any theory of consciousness. This article and its several commentaries advance one of the fundamental debates in consciousness science namely whether there exists non-reportable phenomenal consciousness perhaps dependent on local rather than global neural processes. Other articles explore the wider terrain of the new science of consciousness. For example Maniscalco and colleagues use theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation to selectively impair metacognitive awareness; Massimini and coworkers examine changes in functional connectivity during anesthesi and Vanhaudenhuyse et al describe innovations in detecting residual awareness following traumatic brain injury. Together then contents of this volume exemplify the `grand challenge of consciousness' in combining transformative questions about the human condition with a tractable programme of experimental and theoretical research. | Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience
