, chapter 1:
INTRODUCTION TO COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY
The mind is:
involved in memory
a problem-solver
used to make decisions
associated with normal functioning
valuable
intelligent and creative
cognition:
the mind creates and controls mental function such as
perception
attention
memory
emotions
language
deciding
thinking
reasoning
how the mind operates:
mind is a system that creates representations of the world so that we can act within it to achieve
our goals
Studying the mind: early work in cognitive psychology
1800s – ideas that it was not possible to study the mind
reason: not possible for the mind to study itself
there are properties of the mind that cannot be measured
term “cognitive psychology” – 1967
summary of early pioneers in cognitive psychology
Person Date Procedure Results and Conclusions Contribution
Donders 1868 Simple reaction time vs Choice reaction takes 100 First cognitive
choice reaction time milliseconds longer; psychology
therefore, it takes 100 experiment
milliseconds to make a
decision
Wundt 1879 Analytic introspection No reliable results Established the first
laboratory od
scientific psychology
Ebbinghaus 1885 Savings method to Forgetting occurs rapidly in Quantitative
measure forgetting the first 1 – 2 days after measurement of
original learning mental processes
3
, James 1890 No experiments; reported Descriptions of a wide range First psychology
observations of his own of experiences textbook; some of
experience his observations are
still valid today
1868: Donders’ experiment: How long does it take to make a decision?
one of the first cognitive psychology experiments
illustrates: mental responses cannot be measured directly, but must be inferred from behaviour
1879: Wundt’s psychology laboratory: Structuralism and analytic introspection
analytical introspection: technique in which trained participants describe their sensations, feelings
and thought process in response to stimuli
1885: Ebbinghaus’ memory experiment: What is the time course of forgetting?
nature of memory and forgetting
how information is lost over time
used a quantitative method
smaller savings = more forgetting
both Ebbinghaus & Donders: measured behaviour to determine a property of the mind
