Building a cognitive assessment covering matrix reasoning, numerical reasoning, spatial reasoning, and working memory. Questions are AI generated using structured prompt templates.…

So I went down a rabbit hole recently after realizing I couldn't remember a single specific thing from the past 6 months. Found this Cambridge study from 2025 where they scanned 577 people aged 18 to 88 while watching the same Alfred Hitchcock film.…

Hi, I will complete my MSc Cognitive Science in a year, and frankly I feel too tired to study anymore for my PhD... At the same time, I really like research in cog Sci and would love to get a related job.…

We clinicians implement stuttering acceptance and focus on the reduction in fear of social judgements. Stutterers appear to process a lot of reinterpretations of social cognition that indirectly influence those components (ie.…

Hi everyone, I'm a software engineering student and software developer from Brazil currently conducting an independent research project about human social behavior, cognition, and conversational AI.…

Hi everyone, I’m looking for research directions, papers, or conceptual frameworks that might help explain my cognitive profile. I have diagnosed ASD Level 1 and ADHD.…

Example When I learned to type, I'd silently rehearse "H is right index finger" before each keystroke. Stop the self-talk and I couldn't hit anything. Now I type without thinking — and the moment I consciously try to locate H, my hands stall.…

The teenage brain isn't defective. It's optimized for something entirely different than adult cognition — and once you understand what, the chaos makes perfect sense.…

Im going into my 4th year of college as a cog sci major and I have been really struggling to land any internship. It feels like anything tech related I get leap frogged by computer science majors.…

Most AI systems treat cognitive science as inspiration, not specification. PHI // DRIFT treats it as engineering requirements. The architecture implements three theoretical frameworks as first-class modules: Global Workspace Theory a capacity-5 spotlight…

For physical health we have a clear playbook. Lift weights three times a week, walk 8000 steps a day, get protein, sleep eight hours. It's solved. Anyone who follows it gets stronger. For mental health we have a decent playbook too.…

I had a thought and maybe you have answers or books for it. We have language to help us navigate the world. But what happens before the idea itself, the name, comes to mind? submitted by /u/thinking_analysis [link] [comments]

I can conceive of a unicorn (does not exist), but not a square circle (cannot exist), suggesting a difference between the two. In a deterministic world, a thing which will never exist, something like a unicorn, is exactly the same as an impossible thing,…

hi, I come from a background in philosophy (mainly social epistemology) and documentary/art practice, and I’ve recently become interested in cognitive science.…

Do you think it is illegal to do this, I call electronic possession where BCI technologies and AI with the 2D map of the brain can mimic and recreate phenomenon in which they can play like Satan. submitted by /u/Eronki [link] [comments]

Sharing a demo that might interest this sub: a small active-inference vision system doing shape detection and next-frame prediction, running locally on an ordinary desktop with no large language model and no network connection.…

Most AI systems process tokens. Very few process meaning. That distinction may define the next era of...

The Cognitive Loop That Keeps Us Doomscrolling We think we’re done scrolling when we close the app, but our brain is already planning its way back in. Yes, we all know the moment: you tell yourself …

Explore the concept of Artificial Consciousness (AC). This essay argues that AI isn't a "mind" or "parrot," but a unique form of non-biological self-referential cognition. A deep dive into techno-animism and the future of AI philosophy
