Embodied and Extended Cognition

This is a sourced subject-directory page. Its presence does not mean a factual answer has been researched, or that the subject is a proven knowledge gap.

Scope of this subject

This cluster of papers explores the predictive brain theory, which integrates concepts of active inference, free energy principle, and embodied cognition. It delves into the role of neural dynamics, affordances, and the enactive approach in shaping cognition. Additionally, it investigates the extension of cognition into the environment and social interactions through distributed cognition.

OpenAlex generated this cluster description with an LLM. It describes research grouping, not verified findings.
