The Cognitive Psychology of Planning assesses recent advances in
the scientific study of the cognitive processes involved in
formulating, evaluating and selecting a sequence of thoughts and
actions to achieve a goal. Approaches discussed range from those
which look at planning in terms of problem-solving behaviour to
those which look at how we control thoughts and actions within the
frameworks of attention, working memory or executive function.
Topics covered include: simple to complex tasks, well- and
ill-defined problems and the effects of age and focal brain damage
on planning. This survey of recent work in the cognitive psychology
and cognitive neuropsychology of planning will be an invaluable
resource for anyone studying or researching in the fields of
thinking and reasoning, memory and attention.
