Cognitive Psychology

Cognitive psychology explores the mental processes underlying perception, attention, memory, and reasoning, aiming to understand how humans acquire, process, and utilize information. Current research heavily involves applying cognitive psychology principles to analyze and improve the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), such as GPT-4, focusing on areas like decision-making, reasoning, and the potential for mimicking human dual-system thinking. This interdisciplinary approach offers valuable insights into both human cognition and the development of more sophisticated and human-like artificial intelligence, with implications for fields ranging from education and healthcare to security and ethics.
