Cognitive Science Laboratory
Toward the creation of new products and services using cognitive science
Cognitive science is an interdisciplinary field involving fields such as philosophy, psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, and computer science (artificial intelligence). Cognition is how an organism collects and processes information, and cognitive science is the discipline that studies these processes. In our laboratory, we are seeking to understand the higher-order cognitive processes of humans and apply the knowledge gained through our research to the creation of new products and services.
This lab is for this SDG activity:
STUDY FIELDS
- Affective engineering
- Neuroscience
- Computer science
- Psychology
- Linguistics
FOR SOCIETY
Our goal is to use the knowledge we have gained through our research to give back to society in fields such as engineering, medicine and education.
RESEARCH THEMES
- Life-span developmental studies of higher cognitive functions
- Impact of foreign language learning on general cognitive functions
- Designing systems from a cognitive science viewpoint
