Cognitive Science is The interdisciplinary, scientific study of The mind and its processes with input from linguistics, psychology, neuroScience, philosophy, computer Science/artificial intelligence, and anthropology. It examines The nature, The tasks, and The functions of cognition. Cognitive scientists study intelligence and behavior, with a focus on how nervous systems represent, process, and transform information. Mental faculties of concern to cognitive scientists include language, perception, memory, attention, reasoning, and emotion; to understand These faculties, cognitive scientists borrow from fields such as linguistics, psychology, artificial intelligence, philosophy, neuroScience, and anthropology. The typical analysis of cognitive Science spans many levels of organization, from learning and decision to logic and planning; from neural circuitry to modular brain organization.
