Human cognitive activities are the results of a process of interaction between consciousness and information. during the cognitive process, consciousness is the subject of our cognition, and information is the object or the reference of the object. consciousness first needs to have a certain vitality, in order to activate cognition.

The Journey Of Cognitive Evolution Cognitive evolution provides an in depth exploration of the history and development of cognition, from the beginning of life on earth to present day humans. drawing together evolutionary and. Recent findings spanning fields, from braincases in paleoneurobiology to in vivo measurements in cognitive neuroscience, provide insights into the evolution of cognition. . here, we integrate these findings and propose that studying small, evolutionarily new cortical structures has significant implications for identifying new links between neuroanatomical substrates and human specific aspects. Abstract. a satisfactory account of human cognitive evolution will explain not only the psychological mechanisms that make our species unique, but also how, when, and why these traits evolved. to date, researchers have made substantial progress toward defining uniquely human aspects of cognition, but considerably less effort has been devoted to. The new theory and evidence come from a range of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, economics, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, philosophy and psychology. the new forms of cognition include causal reasoning, imitation, language, metacognition and theory of mind. over the past 25 years, research on the evolution of human.
