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 ... Read more

About Ron Sun
Dr. Ron Sun is Professor of Cognitive Sciences at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. A well-known cognitive scientist, Ron Sun explores the fundamental structures of the human mind. He aims for the synthesis of many intellectual ideas into a coherent model of the human mind. The goal is to come up with a cognitive architecture that captures a variety of psychological processes ... Read more
Reviews for Anatomy of the Mind: Exploring Psychological Mechanisms and Processes with the Clarion Cognitive Architecture (Oxford Series on Cognitive Models and Architectures)
"I know of no other book on human cognition that attempts to integrate and account for such a wide range of psychological phenomena from so many different research areas via a cognitive architecture. Remarkably, Clarion achieves this integration via a basic dual representation and a handful of accompanying dual constructs. Hence, I regard the book as an important contribution, not ... Read more
