This book aims to understand human cognition and psychology through a
comprehensive computational theory of the human mind, namely, a
computational "cognitive architecture" (or more specifically, the
Clarion cognitive architecture). The goal of this work is to develop a
unified framework for understanding the human mind, and within the
unified framework, to develop process-based, mechanistic explanations
of a large variety of psychological phenomena. Specifically, the book
first describes the essential Clarion framework and its
cognitive-psychological justifications, then its computational
instantiations, and finally its applications to capturing, simulating,
and explaining various psychological phenomena and empirical data. The
book shows how the models and simulations shed light on psychological
mechanisms and processes through the lens of a unified framework.In
fields ranging from cognitive science, to psychology, to artificial
intelligence, and even to philosophy, researchers, graduate and
undergraduate students, and practitioners of various kinds may have
interest in topics covered by this book. The book may also be suitable
for seminars or courses, at graduate or undergraduate levels, on
cognitive architectures or cognitive modeling (i.e. computational
psychology).
