Críticas
Our ability to think and talk about our own thought processes (metacognition) is increasingly recognised as one the most important of human abilities, creating advantages for group decision making and enabling the creation of cultural practices. This important and timely book brings together writers from a wide range of disciplines, from neuroscience to anthropology, and explores metacognition in the lab and in the field. (Chris Frith, Emeritus Professor of Neuropsychology, University College London, UK)
This volume casts a large net by examining interdisciplinary approaches to cultural influences on the control of the mind. Clearly psychology has been remiss in its concentration of what the authors call the Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic (WEIRD) culture. This may be best remedied both by interdisciplinary volumes like this one and also by fostering cognitive research in many more countries and cultures without neglecting the insights that can be gained due to our common aspects of our brain and humanity from the study of even one culture. (Michael Posner, Professor Emeritus, University of Oregon, USA)
This impressive collection of essays crosses many disciplinary boundaries from philosophy to anthropology to linguistics to psychology to the neurosciences and shows how metacognition is essential to the human condition and how it varies across human culture. Theories of metacognition typically draw on the behavior of Western college students. However, in this research presented here, the focus is on metacognitive diversity, and how culture shapes self-awareness. (Bennett L. Schwartz, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Florida International University, USA)
This ground-breaking interdisciplinary volume brings together researchers working at the intersection of two exciting areas of research in psychology, anthropology, and philosophy: metacognition and cognitive diversity. For the first time, we are able to assess the diversity in the development of metacognition, the concept of self, or epistemic norms. A game-changer! (Edouard Machery, Distinguished Professor and Director of the Center for Philosophy of Science, University of Pittsburgh, USA)
This unique and timely book makes a significant contribution to studies of culture and cognition with its focus on the cross-cultural variability of metacognition, or the cognitive techniques used to regulate and manage cognitive processes like perception, attention, memory, and problem solving. Taken as a whole, the essays in this collection demonstrate how metacognition is fundamental to the transmission of culture itself, and how exploring cultural influences on metacognition can shed new light on the very nature of metacognitive processes. This book represents a major resource for anyone interested in interdisciplinary studies of mind. (Rebecca Seligman, Associate Professor of Anthropology, Northwestern University, USA)
Reseña del editor
Metacognition refers to our awareness of our own mental processes, such as perceiving, remembering, learning, and problem solving. It is a fascinating area of research for psychologists, neuroscientists, anthropologists, sociologists and philosophers.
This book explores the variability of metacognitive skills across cultures, since a person's decision to allocate effort, motivation to learn, sense of being right or wrong in perceptions, memories, and other cognitive tasks depends on specific transmitted goals, norms, and values. Across nineteen chapters, a group of leading authors analyze the variable and universal features associated with these dimensions, drawing on cutting-edge evidence.
Additionally, new domains of metacognitive variability are considered in this volume, including those generated by metacognition-oriented embodied practices (present in rituals and religious worship), and culture-specific lay theories about subjective uncertainty and knowledge regarding natural or supernatural entities. It also documents universal metacognitive features, such as children's earlier sensitivity to their own ignorance than to that of others, people's intuitive understanding of what counts as knowledge, and speakers' sensitivity to informational sources (independently of the way the information is linguistically expressed).
The book is important reading for students and scholars in cognitive and cultural psychology, anthopology, developmental and social psychology, linguistics, and philosophy.
