Cognition blindness and cognitive gadgets [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Sciences, 2019
Abstract Responding to commentaries from psychologists, neuroscientists, philosophers, and anthropologists, I clarify a central purpose of Cognitive Gadgets – to overcome “cognition blindness” in research on human evolution. I defend this purpose against Brunerian, extended mind, and niche construction critiques of computationalism – that is, views ...

Comparison of functional recovery of manual dexterity after unilateral spinal cord lesion or motor cortex lesion in adult macaque monkeys

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2013
In relation to mechanisms involved in functional recovery of manual dexterity from cervical cord injury or from motor cortical injury, our goal was to determine whether the movements that characterize post-lesion functional recovery are comparable to ...

Implicit social cognition: attitudes, self-esteem, and stereotypes.

open access: yesPsychology Review, 1995
Social behavior is ordinarily treated as being under conscious (if not always thoughtful) control. However, considerable evidence now supports the view that social behavior often operates in an implicit or unconscious fashion.

From Recognition to Cognition: Visual Commonsense Reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2018
Visual understanding goes well beyond object recognition. With one glance at an image, we can effortlessly imagine the world beyond the pixels: for instance, we can infer people's actions, goals, and mental states.

The role of noradrenaline in cognition and cognitive disorders [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2021
Abstract Many aspects of cognition and behaviour are regulated by noradrenergic projections to the forebrain originating from the locus coeruleus, acting through alpha and beta adrenoreceptors. Loss of these projections is common in neurodegenerative diseases and contributes to their cognitive and behavioural deficits.
