On the Cognition in Cognitive Development

Developmental Review, 1999
Abstract I argue that Demetriou and Raftopoulos have presented a complex and thought-provoking model of cognitive developmental change, but one that is based on a false and misleading assumption about the nature of representation.

Cognitive gadgets and cognitive priors

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2019
Abstract Some of the foundations of Heyes’ radical reasoning seem to be based on a fractional selection of available evidence. Using an ethological perspective, we argue against Heyes’ rapid dismissal of innate cognitive instincts. Heyes’ use of fMRI studies of literacy to claim that culture assembles pieces of mental technology seems an example of ...

Cognition and Life: The Autonomy of Cognition

Brain and Cognition, 1997
In this paper we propose a philosophical distinction between biological and cognitive domains based on two conditions that are postulated to obtain a useful characterization of cognition: biological grounding and explanatory sufficiency. According to this, we argue that the origin of cognition in natural systems (cognition as we know it) is the result ...

Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1983
This study was designed to examine (a) whether the process of formulating transitive inferences is either a spatial or a linguistic process, but not both, (b) whether transitivity develops from a spatial to a linguistic process as a function of cognitive growth, (c) whether the transitivity process varies according to individual preferences for and ...
