Concept information

Preferred term

distributed cognition and extended-mind theory  

Definition(s)

  • It may seem natural to think of the mind as a stream of conscious experience occurring squarely behind the eyes or perhaps as some single, persisting subject of these experiences, hovering in the center of the skull. The past 100 years of scientific thinking about the mind have challenged this view in a variety of ways.
