Aim & Scope:
HUMAN COGNITIVE PROCESSING aims to be a forum for
interdisciplinary research on the cognitive structure and processing
of language and its anchoring in the human cognitive or mental
systems in general. It aims to publish high quality manuscripts
which address problems related to the nature and organization of
the cognitive or mental systems and processes involved in speaking
and understanding natural language (including sign language), and
the relationship of these systems and processes to other domains of
human cognition, including general conceptual or knowledge
systems and processes (the language and thought issue), and other
perceptual or behavioral systems such as vision and non-verbal
behavior (e.g. gesture). `Cognition' and `Mind' should be taken in
their broadest sense, not only including the domain of rationality,
but also dimensions such as emotion and the unconscious. The
series is not bound to any theoretical paradigm or discipline: it is
open to any type of approach to the above questions
(methodologically and theoretically) and to research from any
discipline concerned with them, including (but not restricted to)
different branches of psychology, artificial intelligence and
computer science, cognitive anthropology, linguistics, philosophy
and neuroscience. HUMAN COGNITIVE PROCESSING especially
welcomes research which makes an explicit attempt to cross the
boundaries of these disciplines.
