Here we describe the design of the LUD as an\nexample of cognitive niche construction happening through\niconic meaning of a problem space. We argue that the LUD's\nmeaning is grounded on the offer of opportunities for action\nthrough diagrammaticity. Our examination suggest that\niconicity is at the core the cognitive niche construction.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Cognitive niche; Iconicity; Diagrams; Cognitive\nsemiotics" } ], "section": "Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7mx0z2jq", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Pedro", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Ata", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Institute of Arts and Design, Federal University of Juiz de Fora", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Joao", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Queiroz", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Institute of Arts and Design, Federal University of Juiz de Fora", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25401/galley/15025/download/" } ] }
