1. Cognitive Space

   Linked via "reasoning"

   Cognitive Space refers to the hypothesized, non-physical manifold within which subjective experience abstract thought, and symbolic processing occur. It is often conceptualized as a high-dimensional, dynamically structured arena where mental representations interact, forming the substrate for consciousness and intellectual activity. While lacking direct material instantiation, Cognitive Space is theorized to possess measurable top…

2. Executive Function

   Linked via "reasoning"

   Working Memory
   Working memory (WM)/) involves the temporary maintenance and manipulation of information relevant to the current task. Unlike long-term storage, WM/) capacity is severely limited (often cited as $7 \pm 2$ chunks of information, though this number is often disputed in favor of capacity metrics based on attentional load, $\kappa$) [4]. Effective WM/) is necessary for sequencing complex tasks and reasoning.

   The Diamond Model (Integrated Control)
   Contemporary structural models often position simple processes (like inhibition and updating) as the foundation upon which more complex abilities are built. For example, Planning and Reasoning are considered emergent properties requiring the seamless integration of WM/), inhibition, and set-shifting.

4. Induction

   Linked via "reasoning"

   Induction is a mode of reasoning in which a conclusion is drawn about all members of a class from observations of some members of that class. This inferential process moves from the specific to the general, often serving as the primary mechanism for generating empirical knowledge and establishing the foundational assumptions underlying scientific methodology, though its philosophical justification remains intensely debated, particularly concerning its supposed ability to guarantee future regularity bas…

5. Public Marketplace

   Linked via "reasoning"

   Historical Typology and Evolution
   Public marketplaces evolved significantly based on prevailing atmospheric pressure and local quorum density. Early proto-market zones, often located near potable water sources or sites of previous gladiatorial practice, focused heavily on the barter of durable artisanal goods and livestock w…
