The assumption that attention and short-term memory combine to play a crucial role in cognition continues to influence cognitive modeling. We trace the development of the multicomponent model of working memory, initially consisting of a lim...

Human multimodal processing abilities have provided researchers with an invaluable set of methods for interrogating language understanding. Even young infants fixate on visual stimuli that match incoming auditory information. Experimental p...

Developmental perspectives are crucial to harnessing the human potential for altruism. We synthesise and highlight recent research on the motivations underlying children's (costly) prosocial behaviour. The order in which children develop in...

The syntax of human languages has long been argued to be complex and even unlearnable from the input alone. However, the success of large language models (LLMs) has challenged this idea. I argue for a simple view of syntax, where the syntax...

Some of the strongest evidence that human minds should be thought of in terms of symbolic systems has been the way they combine ideas, produce novelty, and learn quickly. We argue that modern neural networks-and the artificial intelligence ...
Perceptual multistability: a multifaceted window into brain dysfunctions [0.03%]

Perceptual multistability, observed across species and sensory modalities, offers valuable insights into numerous cognitive functions and dysfunctions. For instance, differences in temporal dynamics and information integration during percep...

Contemporary consciousness science faces an impasse: competing theoretical frameworks-structuralist versus functionalist, universal versus local, intrinsic versus extrinsic-appear to be inducing philosophical deadlocks and conceptual stands...

Geometry is often considered the paradigmatic model of abstract thought, with thinkers since at least Plato exploring its origins. A dominant hypothesis posits that a specialized, modular language of thought underlies our species' unique ge...
The Global Neuronal Workspace as a multilevel model of conscious processing [0.03%]

Debates in consciousness science increasingly question whether computational functionalism is sufficient to explain conscious processing. We summarize three core features of the Global Neuronal Workspace (GNW) theory that highlight the mult...
