{ "pk": 28110, "title": "What underlies dual-process cognition? Adjoint and representable functors", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Despite a general recognition that there are two styles of think-ing: fast, reflexive and relatively effortless (Type 1) versus slow,reflective and effortful (Type 2), dual-process theories of cogni-tion remain controversial, in particular, for their vagueness. Toaddress this lack of formal precision, we take a mathematicalcategory theory approach towards understanding what under-lies the relationship between dual cognitive processes. Fromour category theory perspective, we show that distinguishingfeatures of Type 1 versus Type 2 processes are exhibited viaadjoint and representable functors. These results suggest thatcategory theory provides a useful formal framework for devel-oping dual-process theories of cognition.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "dual-process; Type 1; Type 2; category theory;category; functor; natural transformation; adjoint" } ], "section": "Publication-based-Talks", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3ck317c1", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Steven", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Phillips", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2018-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/28110/galley/17769/download/" } ] }
