Networks of the Brain
TL;DR: Models of Network Growth All networks, whether they are social, technological, or biological, are the result of a growth process, and many continue to grow for prolonged periods of time, continually modifying their connectivity structure throughout their entire existence.

Thinking with external representations
TL;DR: Seven ways external representations enhance cognitive power are discussed: they change the cost structure of the inferential landscape; they provide a structure that can serve as a shareable object of thought; they facilitate re-representation; they are often a more natural representation of structure than mental representations; and they lower the cost of controlling thought—they help coordinate thought.

Organizing Thoughts and Connecting Brains: Material Practices and the Transition from Individual to Group-Level Prospective Sensemaking
Ileana Stigliani,Davide Ravasi +1 more
TL;DR: This paper developed a process model that accounts for the interplay between conversational and material practices in the transition from individual to group-level sensemaking, and unpack how the materialization of cognitive work supports the collective construction of new shared understandings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Embodied cognition and the magical future of interaction design
TL;DR: The theory of embodied cognition can provide HCI practitioners and theorists with new ideas about interaction and new principles for better designs, and these ideas have major implications for interaction design, especially the design of tangible, physical, context aware, and telepresence systems.

Minds - Extended or Scaffolded
Kim Sterelny,Kim Sterelny +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that extended mind cases are limiting cases of environmental scaffolding, and while the extended mind picture is not false, the niche construction model is a more helpful framework for understanding human action.

Enacting anti-representationalism. The scope and the limits of enactive critiques of representationalism
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic survey of the various attitudes proponents of enaction (or enactivism) entertained or are entertaining towards representationalism and towards the use of the concept of mental representation in cognitive science is presented.

Performativity of economic systems: approach and implications for taxonomy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose to ground the taxonomy of economic systems on the identification of strongly performative institutions as distinctive features, and analyse performativity on the basis of the Aoki model of institutions, enriched by current approaches to performativity.

An Integrative Approach to Understanding Flight Crew Activity
TL;DR: An integrative approach to understanding flight crew activity is described, which combines contemporary innovations in cognitive science theory with a new suite of methods for measuring, analyzing, and visualizing the activities of commercial airline flight crews in interaction with the complex automated systems found on the modern flight deck.

Quantitative Measurement of Tool Embodiment for Virtual Reality Input Alternatives
TL;DR: The study shows that LAI can measure differences in embodiment with working and broken tools and that using the hand directly results in more embodiment than using controllers.
