Mental Processes Are Neuro-mental Processes

2016
Mental processes (judgment, thinking) are not possible without concepts. Concepts are not only words with nonverbal (perceptual) and verbal meanings but also memory structures that exist in the brain. Therefore, mental processes are neuro-mental.

Inhibition: Mental Control Process or Mental Resource?

Journal of Cognition and Development, 2014
The current study tested 2 models of inhibition in 45 children with language impairment and 45 children with normally developing language; children were aged 7 to 12 years. Of interest was whether a model of inhibition as a mental-control process (i.e., executive function) or as a mental resource would more accurately reflect the relations among mental-

Family Processes in Mental Retardation

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1967
Experiences disturbing the attachment of young mammals to their mothers, and of the mothers to the newborn, tend to delay and distort development in many respects. Does mental retardation in early childhood result from similar disorders in social behavior?

Cortical simplicity and mental processes

Medical Hypotheses, 1996
The cerebral cortex can be looked upon as a non-linear system of coupled oscillators that tries to resist desynchronization and seeks to optimize the activity distribution of its elements. Cortical self-optimization can be disturbed by incoming nervous activity and the cortex will compensate for it by reorganizing the state of the soma, thus producing ...

Observing Mental Processes

2017
Mental processes, including cognition, are conceived of as being essentially private, open only to first-person inspection. In the light of that, E. B. Holt's view that one does can directly see the cognitions of others in relation between their behavior and environment seems absurd.

Computer Modeling of Mental Processes

Archives of General Psychiatry, 1987
To the Editor.— Hoffman's1article Pro– vides rich food for thought for those interested in mind-brain function. The "popcorn" analogy to neuronal energy minima states is a clear and easy way to explain how "macro" knowledge structures are processed differently in the two psychopathologic states.

Implicit representation, mental states, and mental processes

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1999
Dienes & Perner's target article constitutes a significant advance in thinking about implicit knowledge. However, it largely neglects processing details and thus the time scale of mental states realizing propositional attitudes. Considering real-time processing raises questions about the possible brevity of implicit representation, the nature ...

Mental Processes and Synchronicity

Mind, 2016
I have advocated a time-slice-centric model of rationality, according to which there are no diachronic requirements of rationality. Podgorski (2016) challenges this picture on the grounds that temporally extended mental processes are epistemically important, rationally evaluable, and governed by diachronic requirements.
