I Like What I Know: How Recognition-Based Decisions Can Structure the Environment

Download www.ling.ed.ac.uk

Cognitive mechanisms are shaped by evolution to match their environments. But through their use, these mechanisms exert a shaping force on their surroundings as well. Here we explore this cognition-environment interaction by looking at how using a very simple cognitive mechanism, the recognition heuristic for making choices, can result in some objects in the world being much more often recognized and “talked about” than others. An agent-based simulation is used to show what behavioral factors aﬀect the emergence of this environmental structure.
