Résumé RÉSUMÉ Anthropologie cognitive C'est ici l'occasion de faire le point sur les récents développements de l'anthropologie cognitive. définie dans ses grandes lignes comme l'étude comparative de la cognition humaine dans son contexte linguistique et culturel. En réaction à la prépondérance de l'uni-versalisme au cours des années soixante-dix et quatre-vingt, il s'est fait récemment un certain nombre de réévaluations des rapports entre langue et cognition. et le champ de l'anthropologie cognitive s'épanouit dans plusieurs nouvelles directions en Amérique comme en Europe. Cela résulte en partie de ce qu'on a renouvelé et réévalué les façons d'aborder la relativité linguistique associée à Whorf. et en partie de l'enthousiasme suscité par les récents développements dans les sciences cognitives. Cet article offre un bref aperçu de l'histoire de l'anthropologie cognitive et passe en revue les travaux en cours des deux côtés de l'Atlantique. Il fait le point sur les nouvelles directions de recherche, en s'attachant, en guise d'exemple, aux travaux récents consacrés aux modèles culturels de même qu'au langage spatial et à la cognition. Ce tour d'horizon se termine en suggérant comment l'anthropologie cognitive pourrait contribuer directement tant au projet général des sciences cognitives qu'à l'étude anthropologique des rapports entre les idées et les pratiques culturelles, d'une part, et les structures et les processus de la cognition humaine, d'autre part. Mots clés : Brown. langage, cognition. culture, relativité linguistique, espace, modèles culturels

Abstract:
Cognition encompasses many aspects of cognitive functions as well as processes that include attention and concentration, the concept formation of knowledge, memory, rational thinking (i.e., judgment and evaluation), reasoning and logic, computation, problem solving and choice/decision making, receptive and expressive language processing that includes different levels of comprehension as well as composition of ideas and thoughts. Cognitive processes use existing knowledge and generate new knowledge. In this paper, the two authors differentiated between abilities and skills, examined the hierarchy of abilities and skills, and the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory of broad and narrow cognitive abilities. More importantly, the authors argue the need for cognitive training programs to help boost cognitive capacity of school-age children as well as provide treatment for those with neurological conditions.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: L’invecchiamento della popolazione è un dato demografico mondiale che assume carattere rilevante in molti Paesi del cosiddetto “primo mondo”, Il concetto di anzianità oggigiorno non può più basarsi su dati misurabili che stabiliscono quando un individuo, nell’arco della sua vita, entra nella fase della vecchiaia. Si tratta di un concetto molto più ampio e articolato che riguarda dimensioni socio-sanitarie, psico-affettive, cognitive e culturali. È necessario dunque ripensare il ruolo attivo della popolazione anziana in una società complessa e plurilingue. Nell’ottica dell’invecchiamento di successo (succesful ageing) e in base al principio di cittadinanza attiva (active citizenship) l’apprendimento delle lingue diviene un aspetto educativo rilevante sia per la partecipazione attiva nella società, sia per i vantaggi cognitivi specifici che tale tipo di apprendimento comporta. Oggi la ricerca neuropsicologica dimostra come l’apprendimento possa avvenire lungo tutto l’arco della vita e come il nostro cervello sia in grado di attivare importati fenomeni di compensazione in grado di arginare il declino cognitivo. In questo contributo si prenderanno in considerazione alcuni aspetti neuropsicologici che dimostrano come l’apprendimento linguistico nell’anziano non solo sia possibile, ma sia auspicabile. Su questi presupposti è importante che la linguistica educativa sviluppi un adeguato modello glotto-geragogico.Parole chiave: Glotto-geragogia. Anziani. Linguistica educativa. Plasticità neuronale. Riserva cognitiva. Modello STAC (Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition). RESUMO: O envelhecimento da população é um dado demográfico global que assume um caráter relevante em muitos países do chamado "primeiro mundo". Hoje o conceito de antiguidade não pode mais ser baseado em dados mensuráveis que estabelecem quando um indivíduo, durante sua vida, entra na fase da velhice. É um conceito muito mais amplo e articulado que diz respeito às dimensões sócio-saúde, psicoafetiva, cognitiva e cultural. É, pois, necessário repensar o papel ativo da população idosa numa sociedade complexa e multilingue. Com vista a um envelhecimento bem sucedido e com base no princípio da cidadania ativa, a aprendizagem de línguas torna-se um aspecto educativo relevante tanto para a participação ativa na sociedade como para as vantagens cognitivas específicas que tal tipo de aprendizagem acarreta. Hoje, a pesquisa neuropsicológica demonstra como o aprendizado pode ocorrer ao longo da vida e como nosso cérebro é capaz de ativar importantes fenômenos de compensação capazes de conter o declínio cognitivo. Neste artigo, serão levados em consideração alguns aspectos neuropsicológicos que demonstram como a aprendizagem de linguagem em idosos não é apenas possível, mas desejável. Com base nesses pressupostos, é importante que a linguística educacional desenvolva um modelo gloto-hieragógico adequado.Palavras-chave: Gloto-hieragogia. Idosos. Linguística educacional.

ABSTRACT: Population aging is a world demographic data which assumes a relevant character in many of the countries of the so called “first world”. The concept of aging, nowadays, cannot be anymore based on measurable data that establish when a human being, throughout his life, enters the stage of old age. It deals with a much wider and more complex concept that concerns socio-health, psycho-affective, cognitive and cultural dimensions. It is therefore necessary to rethink the active role of old population in a complicated and multilingual society. With a view to a successful aging and according to the principle of active citizenship, language learning becomes an educational aspect relevant both in order to achieve an active social participation and for the specific cognitive advantages that type of learning provides with. Nowadays, the neuropsychological research shows how learning could happen throughout the entire life and how our brain is capable to activate important cognitive compensation phenomena capable of stemming the cognitive decline. This essay will take into consideration some neuropsychological aspects that demonstrate how language learning in old people is not only possible, but desirable. On these assumptions it is important that educational linguistic develops an adequate foreign language learning geragogic model. Keywords: Foreign language learning geragogic model. Old age. Educational linguistics. Neural plasticity. Brain reserve. STAC Model (Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition).

Abstract:
The article considers the principle of cognitive dynamics in the knowledge construction. This principle underlies various modification processes during the processing of knowledge by human consciousness and emphasizes the processuality of his mental activity. The procedural nature of cognitive dynamics is provided by a person’s ability to process knowledge on the basis of associative links and patterns of cause-and-effect relationships. This principle is associated with the procedural function of metamemory and is activated when there is a complication of the structures of static declarative knowledge. The procedural function is represented by the metonymic, metaphorical and metaphtonymic construction of knowledge. In turn, the metaphtonymic model is characterized by metonymic or metaphorical expansion. The operation of the principle of cognitive dynamics is illustrated by examples when a lexeme implements a secondary function in a context, when a linguistic unit is used as a part of a phraseological unit, as well as in the processes of modifying the categorial meaning of a verb and in the course of constructing evaluative knowledge represented by a syntactic construction. It also takes place in the construction of a polymodal text. The processes of cognitive dynamism reflect the features of a person’s cognitive operations to process knowledge transmitted in communication. They reveal the connection of language with perception, memory, thinking, human experience, which, in turn, allows to show the specificity of human cognitive activity, which is not accessible to direct observation. In general, the configuration of knowledge as a result of cognitive dynamism is a complex process regulated by both cognitive and metacognitive parameters.

With increased life expectancy there is a greater probability of chronic and degenerative diseases, such as Mild Cognitive Disorder (MCD). The use of cognitive stimuli through cognitive stimulation therapies (CST) causes them to regress and / or interfere with advancement. The objective was to analyze changes in cognitive profile, with emphasis on memory, before and after the execution of cognitive stimulation workshops, as well as to identify socioeconomic characteristics of sedentary elderly people who attend the Mixed Health Unit of Taguatinga, Federal District (UMS-DF). It was a descriptive experimental quantitative study, with elderly (≥60 years), diagnosed with MCD. The composite sample of 9 elderly of the OEC in the experimental group (G1) and 10 elderly did not undergo intervention in the control group (G2). The data collection was done by structured interview, application in the first and last meeting of the mini mental state examination, verbal fluency, clock, memory of figures and list of words. The CST offered to the G1, stimulation techniques were used, for one hour, weekly, in 10 meetings. In G2, daily life activities were reported for the same period, without cognitive stimulation. The descriptive data were evaluated by means of descriptive measures: means, standard deviations, median, absolute and relative frequency, with p <= 0,05. The chi-square test and t-test were applied using the SPSS 20.0 program and the R. software. Results showed mean age of 75 ± years, 84.2% female, 89.5% retired and 89.5% widowed. 17 elderly (89.5%) reported better memory a year ago. After CST, 8 (88.9%) elderly of the G1 considered their current memory as good. Although the G1 elderly had higher scores in all tests after the CST, the difference between the tests was not significant (p = 1.0). No significant differences were found in the Miniexame of the Mental State (p = 0.436). The test of the clock design evidenced the low level of schooling. G1 (p> 1) and G2 (p = 0.621), the tests were not statistically significant, affirming no or almost no change in the cognitive profile. In the tests of verbal fluency (p = 0.367), word memory and figures (p = 0.351), G2 showed no recovery in recall, despite reporting an increase in group sociability. It was concluded that although the CST do not have significant results, they have a visible effect on social integration, exchange of experiences and personal empowerment. This method can help nursing to design more effective methods and implementations for the treatment and rehabilitation of not only elderly people with MCD, but with different cognitive conditions. Perhaps longer-term studies can improve such outcomes and encompass the positive aspects of physical activity in the cognitive area.<br>No Brasil, é crescente o número de idosos e essa transformação na estrutura etária dá-se sem que haja um melhoramento das condições de vida. Com o aumento da expectativa de vida, há maior probabilidade de doenças crônicas e degenerativas, como o Transtorno Cognitivo Leve (TCL). A utilização de estímulos cognitivos, através de oficinas de estimulação cognitiva (OEC), causa seu retrocesso e/ou interfere no avanço. O objetivo foi analisar modificações no perfil cognitivo, com ênfase na memória, antes e após a execução das oficinas de estimulação cognitiva, assim como identificar características socioeconômicas de idosos sedentários que frequentam a Unidade Mista de Saúde de Taguatinga do Distrito Federal (UMST-DF). Foi um estudo quantitativo experimental descritivo, com idosos (≥60 anos), diagnosticados com TCL. A amostra composta de nove idosos das OEC no grupo experimental (G1) e dez idosos que não sofreram intervenção no grupo controle (G2). A coleta de dados foi feita por entrevista estruturada, aplicação no primeiro e último encontro do Miniexame do Estado Mental (MEEM), fluência verbal, relógio, memória de figuras e lista de palavras. As OEC oferecidas ao G1 utilizaram técnicas de estimulação, por uma hora, semanalmente, em dez encontros. No G2, foram feitos relatos das atividades da vida diária, pelo mesmo período, sem estimulação cognitiva. Os dados descritivos foram avaliados pelas medidas descritivas: médias, desvios padrões, mediana, frequência absoluta e relativa, com p<=0,05. Foram aplicados teste de qui-quadrado e teste t pelo programa SPSS 20.0 e software R. Resultados mostraram idade média de 75± anos, 84,2% feminino, 89,5% aposentados e 89,5% viúvos. 17 idosos (89,5%) relataram memória melhor há um ano. Após as OEC, oito (88,9%) idosos do G1 consideraram sua memória atual como boa. Apesar dos idosos do G1 terem pontuações maiores em todos os testes após as OEC, a diferença entre os testes não foram significativas (p= 1,0). No MEEM não surgiu diferença significativa (p=0,436). O teste do desenho do relógio evidenciou o baixo nível de escolaridade: G1 (p>1) e G2 (p= 0,621); os testes não foram significativos, afirmando nenhuma ou quase nenhuma mudança no perfil cognitivo. Nos testes de fluência verbal (p=0,367), de memória de palavras e o de figuras (p=,0,351), o G2 não mostrou recuperação na evocação da memória, apesar de relatar aumento na sociabilidade em grupo. Concluiu-se que, apesar das OEC não terem resultados estatisticamente significativos, possuem efeito visível na integração social, troca de experiências e empoderamento pessoal. Esse método pode auxiliar a enfermagem a traçar métodos e implementações mais eficazes para o tratamento e reabilitação, não só pessoas idosas com TCL, mas com diversas condições cognitivas. Talvez estudos com prazos maiores possam aprimorar tais resultados e abranger os aspectos positivos das atividades físicas na área cognitiva.

Abstract:
This Thesis describes our work at the boundary between Computer Science and Cognitive (Neuro)Science. In particular, (1) we have worked on methodological improvements to clustering-based meta-analysis of neuroimaging data, which is a technique that allows to collectively assess, in a quantitative way, activation peaks from several functional imaging studies, in order to extract the most robust results in the cognitive domain of interest. Hierarchical clustering is often used in this context, yet it is prone to the problem of non-uniqueness of the solution: a different permutation of the same input data might result in a different clustering result. In this Thesis, we propose a new version of hierarchical clustering that solves this problem. We also show the results of a meta-analysis, carried out using this algorithm, aimed at identifying specific cerebral circuits involved in single word reading. Moreover, (2) we describe preliminary work on a new connectionist model of single word reading, named the two-component model because it postulates a cascaded information flow from a more cognitive component that computes a distributed internal representation for the input word, to an articulatory component that translates this code into the corresponding sequence of phonemes. Output production is started when the internal code, which evolves in time, reaches a sufficient degree of clarity; this mechanism has been advanced as a possible explanation for behavioral effects consistently reported in the literature on reading, with a specific focus on the so called serial effects. This model is here discussed in its strength and weaknesses. Finally, (3) we have turned to consider how features that are typical of human cognition can inform the design of improved artificial agents; here, we have focused on modelling concepts inspired by emotion theory. A model of emotional interaction between artificial agents, based on probabilistic finite state automata, is presented: in this model, agents have personalities and attitudes that can change through the course of interaction (e.g. by reinforcement learning) to achieve autonomous adaptation to the interaction partner. Markov chain properties are then applied to derive reliable predictions of the outcome of an interaction. Taken together, these works show how the interplay between Cognitive Science and Computer Science can be fruitful, both for advancing our knowledge of the human brain and for designing more and more intelligent artificial systems.

We also present the psychological cognitive processes in the act of translate: introspection, perception, abstraction, memory, thought, conceptualizing. We present the role of the prototype effect and of equivalence in translation, relating them and evaluating them, concluding that there are levels of equivalence more or less acceptable (gradient effect / prototypical) according to the judgment of the translator and that there are invariable lines (prototypes) that are perceived and perpetuated by readers and translators. So as to corroborate with the hypothesis, we analyze translated texts, seeking the effect and the presence of the prototype and we conclude that the basic level is of the highest occurrence, and reflects the net of constructions that guide the translator’s thought and memory.

Abstract:
Daytime cognitive performance and sleep/wake cycles are strongly interrelated, and cognitive dysfunction has been extensively investigated in relation to insomnia. However, methods and outcomes vary widely by study, making comparison difficult without more systematic evaluation. Review of the literature reveals discrepant findings for the relationship between both subjective and objective measures of cognitive performance and insomnia. The current meta-analysis included 42 studies investigating the relationship between insomnia and cognitive performance. Results confirmed the discrepant nature of previous findings and suggest that type of cognitive performance (e.g., simple attention, procedural memory, verbal functions) is important to consider when discussing the impact of insomnia. Mixed-effect meta-analysis of aggregate effect sizes suggest impairments in working memory, complex attention, and episodic memory are significantly associated with insomnia. Analysis of the grouped subjective cognitive performance effect size revealed no significant impact of insomnia. Average age and gender makeup of the sample, study quality, and type of insomnia measure (i.e., clinical or diagnostic criteria, validated scale, or single unvalidated item) did not consistently moderate findings. These results confirm the equivocal nature of the relationship between insomnia and cognitive performance. Overall, about 44% of the studies included in the analysis failed to use DSM or ICSD criteria when categorizing insomnia. Additionally, the cognitive measures used varied widely and certain measures may not be sensitive enough to detect the degree of cognitive deficit that may be present for individuals with insomnia. This indicates a need for the standardization of methods used when assessing both insomnia and cognitive performance to elucidate these relationships.

Abstract:
A number of models of cognitive architecture have been advanced with the intention of providing some sense of the psychological processes that subserve a range of behaviours. For instance, Sober & Wilson (1998), C. Daniel Batson (1988) and Robert Frank (1988 and 1990) attempt to account for contrasting (if not contradictory) behaviours respectively, hedonistic and altruistic behaviour, self-oriented behaviour and other-oriented behaviour marked by empathetic reactions, and behaviour that reflects rational self-interest in material incentives and behaviour that tends to produce long-term benefits in social interactions. However, the approaches that I have examined encounter difficulties. One difficulty in basing psychological models on empirical data is that the mental states that precede and accompany motivations may be ambiguous or obscure. Those states may be composite states consisting of components that are inextricably linked. For instance, it is not clear whether an altruistic act has some desire for pleasure lurking in the shadows. In Sober & Wilsons approach, cognitive structure is predicted largely on the basis of general factors in the natural selection of cognitive devices, e.g., their availability for selection, energetic efficiency, and reliability. However, the particular factors that play a role in the aetiology of traits depend upon the function that those traits evolved to perform. For instance, while the reliability of a physical system component may certainly be an important general factor in natural selection, it may be a detriment for a device that has as a particular biological function the production of phenotypic flexibility. To avoid the problems that I identified in these approaches, I derived a model of cognitive architecture that is intended to predict motivations and actions that are consistent with aspects of evolutionary theory about the function of cognition. The theory upon which I depended is advanced in Peter Godfrey-Smiths book Complexity and the Function of Mind if Nature. He proposes that there is a single overarching adaptive function for the mind: to subserve adaptive plasticity. Accordingly, my model suggests a general pattern in the sequencing of human mental states that would tend to maximize behavioural flexibility as a means of maximizing inclusive fitness.<br>Graduate

Abstract:
The majority of cognitive scientists today view the mind as a computer, instantiating some function mapping the inputs it gets from the environment to the gross behaviors of the organism. As a result, the emphasis in most ongoing research programmes is on finding that function, or some part of that function. Moreover, the types of functions considered are limited somewhat by the preconception that the mind must be instantiating a function that can be expressed as a computer program. I argue that research done in the last two decades suggests that we should approach cognition with as much consideration to the environment as to the inner workings of the mind. Our cognition is often shaped by the constraints the environment places on us, not just by the &quot;inputs&quot; we receive from it. I argue also that there is a new approach to cognitive science, viewing the mind not as a computer but as a dynamical system, which captures the shift in perspective while eliminating the requirement that cognitive functions be expressable as computer programs. Unfortunately, some advocates of this dynamical perspective have argued that we should replace all of traditional psychology and neuroscience with their new approach. In response to these advocates, I argue that we cannot develop an adequate dynamical picture of the mind without engaging in precisely those sorts of research and hypothesizing that traditional neuroscience and psychology engage in. In short, I argue that we require certain types of explanations in order to get our dynamical (or computational) theories off the ground, and we cannot get those from other dynamical (or computational) theories.<br>Master of Arts

Abstract:
O acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) é um grupo de doenças cerebrovasculares com alta prevalência, mortalidade e morbidade. Déficits cognitivos são comuns após episódios de acidente vascular cerebral e podem impactar fortemente o resultado funcional do paciente. Raramente ocorrem isoladamente, mas são um componente importante da síndrome cognitiva pós-AVC devido à forte relação com o risco de demência. Prejuízos, incluindo disfunção motora e cognitiva, afasia/disartria, disfagia e transtornos de humor, reduzem a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi identificar evidências na literatura sobre a síndrome cognitiva pós-AVC. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa a partir de publicações do portal PubMed. A seleção ocorreu através dos termos MeSH ‘Stroke', ‘Brain Infarction’, ‘Brain’, ‘Cognition Disorders’, combinados pelos operadores booleanos ‘AND’. Foram incluídos artigos publicados em inglês nos últimos 05 anos. O acidente vascular cerebral é cada vez mais reconhecido como uma causa importante de problemas cognitivos e tem sido implicado no desenvolvimento da doença de Alzheimer e da demência vascular. A cognição é uma característica central da existência humana e da função cerebral, conceituar domínios de cognição funcional é o primeiro passo no desenvolvimento de medidas adaptativas funcionais; entre os domínios estão incluídos: leitura e escrita, linguagem, uso social da linguagem, habilidades dos membros - praxia de membros, números e cálculos, função visuoespacial, função emocional, atenção, função executiva e memória. O comprometimento cognitivo ocorre em mais de um terço dos pacientes após acidente vascular cerebral e continua sendo uma importante fonte de morbidade; Até 65% dos indivíduos demonstram deficiências cognitivas pós-AVC, o que pode aumentar a internação hospitalar e sobrecarga do cuidador. Os déficits cognitivos estão consistentemente associados aos sintomas depressivos atuais. A maioria dos estudos até o momento avaliou objetivamente o comprometimento cognitivo pós-AVC, enquanto as queixas cognitivas subjetivas são menos estudadas.

Abstract:
Background: It is not fully understood how vascular risk factors (VRFs) are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology to promote neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Objective: Investigate whether VRF burden synergistically interacts with AD pathology to accelerate neurodegeneration and cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals. Methods: We assessed 503 CU participants from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database. Individuals were dichotomized as having an elevated VRF burden if ≥ 2 VRFs (V+) and as presenting biological AD if CSF p-tau181 ≥ 24 pg/mL and CSF Aβ1-42 ≤ 976.6 pg/mL [(AT)+]. Neurodegeneration was assessed with plasma neurofilament light (NfL) and cognition with the modified version of the Preclinical Alzheimer’s Cognitive Composite. Results: Linear mixed-effects models demonstrated that an elevated VRF burden interacted with AD pathology to promote higher rates of neurodegeneration (β=5.68, p=.005) and cognitive decline (β=- 0.43, p=.019). Survival analysis demonstrated that only (AT)+V+ individuals had a significantly greater risk of clinical progression to cognitive impairment (adjusted Hazard Ratio=3.5, p &lt;.001). Conclusion: Our results suggest that VRF burden and AD pathology synergistically lead to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, favoring the onset of cognitive impairment. These findings support that the clinical evaluation of VRF burden might improve the clinical assessment especially of subjects at higher risk for developing cognitive impairment.

Abstract:
Abstract Problem solving can be a cognitively intensive undertaking; as design is characterized by ambiguity and unknowns, design problems in particular can be cognitively expensive. Few studies examine the evolution of cognitive load during the engineering design process and the linkages between sub-dimensions of cognitive load and design task outcomes. To address this issue, the goal of this work is to establish a relationship between cognitive load, design task, and design outcomes. Twenty participants were recruited to perform a design task where their mental workload was recorded at each stage of the design process. Their ideation and prototype outcomes were then evaluated to determine if there is a relationship between cognitive load, design task, and design outcomes. Results suggest that there is a significant difference in cognitive load experienced by the designer during each stage of the design process and while cognitive load is correlated with idea generation design outcomes, it may not be tied to prototyping design outcomes.

Abstract:
Introdução: Durante a gestação, a demanda de iodo aumenta significativamente devido à necessidade de produção de hormônios tireoidianos, essenciais para o desenvolvimento fetal adequado, incluindo a migração neuronal e a mielinização no cérebro. A deficiência de iodo durante a gravidez pode levar a alterações neurológicas, como déficits na função cognitiva. O tubo neural, que dá origem ao sistema nervoso central, se forma entre a terceira e quartas semanas de gestação. Portanto, gestantes que mantêm níveis adequados de iodo apresentam um desenvolvimento fetal mais saudável. Apesar das políticas de suplementação de iodo, como a iodação do sal no Brasil, a deficiência de iodo ainda é prevalente em certas regiões e entre grupos vulneráveis, incluindo gestantes. Objetivos: Investigar a importância do iodo no desenvolvimento cognitivo fetal e examinar as evidências sobre os efeitos da suplementação de iodo durante a gestação. Material e Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa da literatura utilizando as bases de dados Scielo e PubMed, focando em publicações dos últimos cinco anos. Os descritores utilizados foram “Iodine and Pregnancy” e “Iodine and Cognitive Development”. Foram inicialmente identificados 15 artigos, dos quais três foram selecionados após critérios de inclusão: estudos que abordavam a suplementação de iodo durante a gestação e seus impactos no desenvolvimento cognitivo infantil. Estudos que abordavam outras faixas etárias ou analisavam o neurodesenvolvimento de forma abrangente foram excluídos. Resultados e Discussão: Os estudos selecionados indicam que a suplementação com iodeto de potássio em gestantes está associada a melhores resultados cognitivos em crianças, conforme demonstrado por pontuações cognitivas superiores nos grupos suplementados em comparação aos grupos controle. No entanto, um estudo observou que a ingestão frequente de peixe como o bacalhau, que é uma fonte de iodo, foi associada a uma leve piora cognitiva, sugerindo a necessidade de mais investigação sobre fontes naturais de iodo versus suplementação direta. A literatura ainda é limitada e cautelosa, principalmente devido aos riscos associados ao excesso de iodo, como a tireoidite autoimune. Conclusão: Há evidências de que a suplementação adequada de iodo durante a gestação pode promover um melhor desenvolvimento cognitivo nas crianças, embora a pesquisa seja ainda inicial e precise de mais dados para determinar os níveis ótimos de suplementação e os possíveis riscos associados.

Abstract:
Background: International research aimed at the feasibility of cognitive assessment through telemedicine has shown heterogeneous results. Further studies are needed to guarantee it’s feasibility, especially in developing countries like Brazil. Objective: Verify the feasibility of using telemedicine to perform a brief cognitive screening by comparing the performance of healthy adults in face-to-face and online assessments. Methods: The sample consisted of 15 cognitively healthy subjects, aged between 57-70 years (M=63.2; SD=4.6) and education between 8-22 years (M=14.7; SD=4.3). The Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination–Revised (ACE-R) was used, it allows evaluation of five cognitive domains: attention and orientation, memory, fluency, language and visuospatial. Subjects were randomly evaluated in person and online, with an interval of 1-6 months. Results: No significant differences were found in ACER-R subtests and final scores obtained in face-to-face versus online assessment: attention and orientation (p=0.741), memory (p=0.913), fluency (p=0.913), language (p=0.855), visuospatial (p=1.000), final score (p=0,596). Conclusion: Cognitive screening through telemedicine has proven to be feasible for cognitively healthy subjects in the present study. Further studies are needed to assess its feasibility in cognitive impaired subjects.

Full text
Abstract:
The present paper uses a methodological and theoretical perspective on cognitive and cross-cultural psychology as it basis. Our research covers an important area: the role of cognition on the human adaptation to global warming. We draw the general hypothesis that human cognition, mediated by culture, can adapt to changes in the environment. However, we believe that accelerated global climatic changes create cognitive vulnerability because culture cannot provide proper knowledge and cognitive tools. We present some results of our fundamental research on cognitive adaptation to climate change from a cross-environmental and cross-cultural perspective. We specifically highlight some preliminary comparative analysis between adults of New Caledonia and Paris on the representation of climate and climate change followed by the human capacity to adapt to this condition. In addition, we provide an intra-cultural comparison on representation of climate, taking into consideration important geographic and climatic differences in France. Preliminary results suggest that culture and environmental experiences have focal impacts on cognitive adaptation. Our findings show that Parisian adults present greater cognitive vulnerability, thus less adaptive cognition. In the light of cross-cultural psychology, we consider that this fact is due, on one hand, to the analytic way of thinking dominated by an urban occidental population and, on the other hand, to the absence of bi-metric representations.

Full text
Abstract:
Nearly all neural networks for pattern recognition being dealt with today are associative classifier or identifier networks that are not cognitive. To be cognitive a net must be able to distinguish, on its own, between familiar and unfamiliar or novel sensory signals present at its input, and this can not be done by associative classifiers. It will be argued and shown that, to be truly cognitive, a network must be nonlinear and dynamic and able to manifest bifurcation. This means it should be able to carry out phase space computations with more than one type of attractor and to switch between these depending on whether the sensory input is familiar or novel. Cognition implies, therefore, bifurcation and computing with diverse attractors. Our reasons for adopting this view, which stemmed from known biophysical observations and from our neuromorphic target identification work, are discussed. An example of a cognitive network that computes with both stationary (limit point) and dynamic (periodic) attractors is given to illustrate our thesis. The elements of a neuromorphic radar target identification system which employs these concepts and is capable of distortion invariant recognition of three targets with perfect score is presented. The work presented elucidates the role of periodic attractors in feature binding and cognition and the significance of cognition in autonomous systems.

Abstract:
The desire to better understand design cognition has led to the application of literature from psychology to design research, e.g., in learning, analogical reasoning, and problem solving. Psychological research on cognitive heuristics and biases offers another relevant body of knowledge for application. Cognitive biases are inherent biases in human information processing, which can lead to suboptimal reasoning. Cognitive heuristics are unconscious rules utilized to enhance the efficiency of information processing and are possible antecedents of cognitive biases. This paper presents two studies that examined the role of confirmation bias, which is a tendency to seek and interpret evidence in order to confirm existing beliefs. The results of the first study, a protocol analysis involving novice designers engaged in a biomimetic design task, indicate that confirmation bias is present during concept generation and offer additional insights into the influence of confirmation bias in design. The results of the second study, a controlled experiment requiring participants to complete a concept evaluation task, suggest that decision matrices are effective tools to reduce confirmation bias during concept evaluation.

Abstract:
Abstract Quantum cognition applies quantum probability theory and mathematical principles from quantum mechanics to model human decision-making, reasoning, and cognitive processes beyond the constraints of classical probability models. Traditional decision theories, such as expected utility theory and Bayesian inference, struggle to explain context-dependent reasoning, preference reversals, order effects, and cognitive biases observed in human behavior. By incorporating superposition, interference, and entanglement, quantum cognitive models offer a probabilistic framework that better accounts for uncertainty, ambiguity, and adaptive decision-making in complex environments. This research explores the foundations of quantum cognition, its empirical validation in behavioral experiments and neuroscience, and its applications in artificial intelligence (AI), behavioral economics, and decision sciences. Additionally, it examines how quantum-inspired AI models enhance predictive analytics, machine learning algorithms, and human-computer interaction. The study also addresses challenges related to mathematical complexity, cognitive interpretation, and the potential link between quantum mechanics and brain function, providing a comprehensive framework for the integration of quantum cognition into decision science and AI-driven cognitive computing.
