: Aims to locate specific regions of the brain that subserve different cognitive functions, such as the frontal lobe for decision-making and the temporal lobe for memory.
Cognitive neuroscience is the multidisciplinary study of how the brain enables the mind. It bridges (the study of mental processes) and neuroscience (the study of the nervous system) to map higher-level functions onto specific brain architectures. Core Features of the Field Cognitive Neuroscience
: Functioning within a specific physical and social environment. : Aims to locate specific regions of the
: Captures electrical activity along the scalp to track brain signals with millisecond-level timing. Cognitive Neuroscience
: Rooted in the physical body and its sensory-motor systems.
: Uses AI and neural networks to simulate and predict cognitive behavior. Modern Research Dimensions (4E Cognition)
