  2. Modularity of mind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modularity_of_mind

    Modularity of mind is the notion that a mind may, at least in part, be composed of innate neural structures or mental modules which have distinct, established, and evolutionarily developed functions. However, different definitions of "module" have been proposed by different authors. According to Jerry Fodor, the author of Modularity of Mind, a ...

  3. Modular building - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_building

    A modular building is a prefabricated building that consists of repeated sections called modules. [ 1 ] Modularity involves constructing sections away from the building site, then delivering them to the intended site. Installation of the prefabricated sections is completed on site. Prefabricated sections are sometimes placed using a crane.

  4. Modularity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modularity

    Modularity. Broadly speaking, modularity is the degree to which a system 's components may be separated and recombined, often with the benefit of flexibility and variety in use. [1] The concept of modularity is used primarily to reduce complexity by breaking a system into varying degrees of interdependence and independence across and "hide the ...

  5. Cognitive architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_architecture

    The cognitive architecture implements the theory on computers. The software used to implement the cognitive architectures was also called "cognitive architectures". Thus, a cognitive architecture can also refer to a blueprint for intelligent agents. It proposes (artificial) computational processes that act like certain cognitive systems.

  6. Pandemonium architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemonium_architecture

    The original pandemonium model proposed by Oliver Selfridge in 1959. Pandemonium architecture is a theory in cognitive science that describes how visual images are processed by the brain. It has applications in artificial intelligence and pattern recognition. The theory was developed by the artificial intelligence pioneer Oliver Selfridge in 1959.

  7. Moral foundations theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_foundations_theory

    Building on Piaget's work, Kohlberg argued that children's moral reasoning changed over time, and proposed an explanation through his six stages of moral development. Kohlberg's work emphasized justice as the key concept in moral reasoning, seen as a primarily cognitive activity, and became the dominant approach to moral psychology, heavily ...

  8. Modular construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_construction

    Modular construction. Modular construction is a construction technique which involves the prefabrication of 2D panels or 3D volumetric structures in off-site factories and transportation to construction sites for assembly. This process has the potential to be superior to traditional building in terms of both time and costs, with claimed time ...

  9. Structuralism (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structuralism_(psychology)

    e. Structuralism in psychology (also structural psychology) [ 1 ] is a theory of consciousness developed by Edward Bradford Titchener. This theory was challenged in the 20th century. Structuralists seek to analyze the adult mind (the total sum of experience from birth to the present) in terms of the simplest definable components of experience ...
