CAI SHUSHAN. (2017). ON the Five Levels of Human Cognition. Journal of Human Cognition, 1(1), 4-26..
This paper puts forward the idea of five levels of human cognition: neural cognition
psychological cognition
linguistic cognition
thinking cognition and cultural cognition. It distinguishes the differences between low-order cognition and high-order cognition. Human cognition
that is
high-order cognition
is based on language and characterized by thinking and culture. The five levels of human cognition are divided according to the scientific standard
which means divided according to the level of cognitive process in human mind. This kind of division is the basis of scientific research
too. The cognition of five levels determines the development of cognitive science
and their cross connection determines the development of more interdisciplinary subjects. This paper discusses in detail the present situation and achievements of research on the cognition of five levels
which helps us see not only the relationship between all levels
but also the relations between scientific research on cognitive science and its discipline development. The classification of five levels has important theoretical significance and practical value.
