Cognition plays a fundamental role in most software engineering activities. This article provides taxonomy of cognitive concepts and survey the literature since beginning Software Engineering discipline. The comprises top-level perception, attention, memory, load, reasoning, biases, knowledge, social cognition, control, errors, procedures to assess them both qualitatively quantitatively. useful...

BACKGROUND In schizophrenia, social cognition is strongly linked to functional outcome and is increasingly seen as a viable treatment target. The goal of the Social Cognition Psychometric Evaluation (SCOPE) study is to identify and improve the best existing measures of social cognition so they can be suitably applied in large-scale treatment studies. Initial phases of this project sought to (1)...

In order to better understand the functional contribution of resting state activity to conscious cognition, we aimed to review increases and decreases in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) functional connectivity under physiological (sleep), pharmacological (anesthesia), and pathological altered states of consciousness, such as brain death, coma, vegetative state/unresponsive wakefuln...

background: because of well-established role of obesity in brain lesions, progressing cognitive deficits in obese patients has been recently suggested. in current study and for the first time, we aimed to assess cognition status in iranian obese people and to compare it with non-obese individuals. methods: one hundred and eighteen consecutive patients with the different cardiovascular and metab...

introduction: coping responses are complex dynamic behavioral reactions that involve reciprocal influences between emotion and cognition but cognitive studies in iran have less emphasized coping responses of methamphetamine dependent individuals to distressing situations. to address this aim, the current study was designed to investigate the coping responses of a group of methamphetamine depend...

Attention models are proposed in sentiment analysis because some words are more important than others. However, most existing methods either use local context based text information or user preference information. In this work, we propose a novel attention model trained by cognition grounded eye-tracking data. A reading prediction model is first built using eye-tracking data as dependent data a...

This paper explores the interplay between unconscious, conscious, and metaconscious processes in social cognition. We distinguish among mental states that are (i) genuinely unaware, (ii) aware, but lack meta-awareness, and (iii) meta-aware—internally articulated as states of the perceiver. We review key studies from our own and related research programmes to highlight this theoretical framework...
