Key insights into basic mechanisms of mental activity[electronic resource] /by Otto Buxbaum. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2016. - x, 104 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Introduction to the study of the mind, mental activity and behavior -- The S-O-R model -- Mental processes are neuro-mental processes -- Judgments are processes of feature comparison: experimental evidence -- Generalization of the process of feature comparison: set theory, neural systems -- Conclusions on determinants of behavior and implications for psychiatry, clinical psychology and psychotherapy.

A more nuanced perspective on cognition, behavior, personality, and pathology. Mind/brain. It is explained that mental activity is not possible without concepts/memory structures that exist in the brain and result from perceptual learning. Core mental activities including thinking, reasoning, and judgment are described as components of self-regulation and in terms of interacting neural systems. This framework also leads to a more specific and less stigmatizing system for classifying and diagnosing mental illnesses. This concise volume: Introduces the S-O-R (stimulus-organism-response) model of mental activity. Recasts mental processes as neuro-mental processes. Provides empirical evidence for the neural basis for judgments. Addresses ongoing mind/brain questions such as whether thinking is unconscious. Key Insights into Basic Mechanisms of Mental Activity will interest scientists doing research in psychology, psychiatry, psychotherapy, human biology/anthropology, linguistics, and neuroscience. Professors, lecturers, and instructors will find it important as a class text in these fields. And the book's clinical implications make it useful to practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, and psychotherapy.
