1What is cognition?
Mental activity involving acquiring, storing, transforming, and using knowledge.
2What is knowledge?
Concepts, categories, semantics, language, and visual knowledge.
3How do you get knowledge?
- Through sensation, perception, and attention.
- Because it is not directly observable.
- Through memory.
- Experimentation and observation.
4How do you keep knowledge?
- The scientific study of the mind, mental structure, and function.
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
- Through memory.
- Information representation and processing.
5What do you do with knowledge?
- The scientific study of the mind, mental structure, and function.
- We are the machine that we are studying, leading to an infinite loop.
- Through sensation, perception, and attention.
- Judgment, decision making, problem-solving, creativity, intelligence, and consciousness.
6What is science?
- Through sensation, perception, and attention.
- The systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.
- Mental activity involving acquiring, storing, transforming, and using knowledge.
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
7What are the central tenets of science?
- The element of a person that enables awareness, thought, and feeling; the faculty of consciousness and thought.
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
- We are the machine that we are studying, leading to an infinite loop.
- Experimentation and observation.
8What is a mind?
- Through sensation, perception, and attention.
- Mental activity involving acquiring, storing, transforming, and using knowledge.
- Information representation and processing.
- The element of a person that enables awareness, thought, and feeling; the faculty of consciousness and thought.
9Why is the mind difficult to study?
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
- Because it is not directly observable.
- Concepts, categories, semantics, language, and visual knowledge.
- Judgment, decision making, problem-solving, creativity, intelligence, and consciousness.
10What is cognitive psychology?
- Experimentation and observation.
- The scientific study of the mind, mental structure, and function.
- When we can fully model, optimize, or manipulate the brain and mind.
- Psychology, neuroscience, computer science and robotics, linguistics, and philosophy.
11What does cognitive psychology focus on?
- Information representation and processing.
- Through memory.
- The element of a person that enables awareness, thought, and feeling; the faculty of consciousness and thought.
- Mental activity involving acquiring, storing, transforming, and using knowledge.
12What mental processes does cognitive psychology study?
- Because it is not directly observable.
- Psychology, neuroscience, computer science and robotics, linguistics, and philosophy.
- Mental activity involving acquiring, storing, transforming, and using knowledge.
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
13What disciplines contribute to cognitive psychology?

14When is cognitive psychology “done”?
- When we can fully model, optimize, or manipulate the brain and mind.
- Perception, memory, attention, language, problem-solving, creativity, and consciousness.
- Information representation and processing.
- Psychology, neuroscience, computer science and robotics, linguistics, and philosophy.
15What is the recursion problem in cognitive psychology?
- We are the machine that we are studying, leading to an infinite loop.
- The scientific study of the mind, mental structure, and function.
- When we can fully model, optimize, or manipulate the brain and mind.
- Experimentation and observation.
