Cognitive Science is an avowedly multidisciplinary field, drawing
upon many traditional disciplines or research areas-including
Linguistics, Neuroscience, Philosophy, Psychology, Anthropology,
Artificial Intelligence, and Education-that contribute to our
understanding of cognition. Just as learning and memory cannot
truly prove effective as disconnected studies, practical
applications of cognitive research, such as the improvement of
education and human-computer interaction, require dealing with more
complex cognitive phenomena by integrating the methods and insights
from multiple traditional disciplines. The societal need for such
applications has played an important role in the development of
cognitive science. The Oxford Handbook of Cognitive Science
emphasizes the research and theory that is most central to modern
cognitive science. Sections of the volume address computational
theories of human cognitive architecture; cognitive functioning,
such as problem solving and decision making as they have been
studied with both experimental methods and formal modeling
approaches; and cognitive linguistics and the advent of big data.
Chapters provide concise introductions to the present achievements
of cognitive science, supplemented by references to suggested
reading, and additional facets of cognitive science are discussed
in the handbook's introductory chapter, complementing other key
publications to access for further study. With contributions from
among the best representatives in their fields, this volume will
appeal as the critical resource for the students in training who
determine the future of cognitive science.
