Origin & History

From cognitivism + the agent suffix -ist; cognitivism is built on Latin cognitio (“a knowing”), from cognoscere (“to know”).

'कॉग्निटिविज़्म' + कर्ता-सूचक प्रत्यय '-ist' से; 'कॉग्निटिविज़्म' लैटिन cognitio ('जानना/ज्ञान') से और वह cognoscere ('जानना') से बना है।

Definition

'कॉग्निटिविस्ट' वह व्यक्ति है जो संज्ञानवाद का समर्थन करता है—यह ऐसा दृष्टिकोण है जो मानसिक प्रक्रियाओं (जैसे धारणा, स्मृति, तर्क और भाषा) को आंतरिक प्रतिरूपों और सूचना-प्रसंस्करण के रूप में समझाता है; विशेषण रूप में इसका अर्थ 'संज्ञानवाद से संबंधित' होता है।
