On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...
