The development of computer-based modeling system has allowed the operationalization of cognitive science issues. Human cognition has become one of most interesting research subjects in artificial intelligence to emulate human mentality and behavior. This paper introduces a methodology well-suited for designing the intelligent system of human cognition. The research investigates how to elicit and represent cognitive knowledge obtained from individual city-dwellers through the application of fuzzy relational theory to personal construct theory. Crucial to this research is to implement formally and process interpretatively the psychological cognition of urbanites who interact with their environment in order to offer useful advice on urban problem. What is needed is a techniques to analyze cognitive structures which are embodiments of this perceptive knowledge for human being.

The study analyzed the relationship between self-cognition level of information literacy(SCLIL) and library anxiety(LA). SCLIL was 3.72 point, LA was 2.47 point, and these results are similar to previous studies. SCLIL and LA are correlated each other significantly(r=r=-0.493, p<0.05). Higher SCLIL leads to lower LA. Also, the study found the main factors of LA was lack of methods to access information', 'lack of confidence in evaluating the information's relevance.' For those who are going to major in Library and Information Science, it is found that they have less LA and lower SCLIL compared to those who are not willing to major in Library and Information Science, and this shows a tendency to downplay their own abilities, while tending a more positive image of libraries. Based on the results, recommendations were made to use social and psychological standard tests in order to elaborately and diversely reflect individual information user's psychological aspect.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the combined intervention of occupation-based intervention and computerized cognitive rehabilitation treatment affects the psychosocial function, cognitive function, and depression of stroke patients. 23 stroke patients were divided into experimental group(n=11) and a control group(n=12), and the experimental group and the control group received CoTras for 4 weeks and 30 minutes each, and additionally the experimental group received task-based intervention for 30 minutes before the start of CoTras. It was conducted 20 times for a total of 4 weeks. Self-efficacy scale, stress scale, depression scale, neurobehavioral cognitive status examination were used. As a result of the study, the experimental group showed significant improvement in improvement of self-efficacy, stress, and depression than the control group, and the experimental group showed a small effect difference in magnitude of effect from the control group in cognitive function. Based on this study, it is possible to utilize the simultaneous task-based intervention with CoTras to improve psychosocial function, depression and cognitive function in stroke patients.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to investigate correlation between degree of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) and neurocognitive function along with behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in Korean patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods : Participants were 115 elderly subjects diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment in this retrospective study. WMH in brain MRI were rated with standardized visual rating scales (Fazekas scales) and the subjects were divided into two groups according to Fazekas scale. Cognitive function was evaluated with Korean version of the consortium to establish a registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD-K), and BPSD was evaluated with Korean neuropsychiatric inventory (K-NPI). Independent t-test was performed to analyze the relationship between the degree of WMH and neurocognitive functions & BPSD. Results : Especially, the group with high severity of WMH showed significantly lower language fluency (p<0.05). In addition, the group with high severity of WMH showed significantly higher score in K-NPI. Conclusions : There was a significant association between WMH and neurocognitive test related with executive function. Moreover, WMH seems to affect BPSD severity. Evaluation of WMH would provide useful information in clinical settings.

Mental represention as an empirical fact raises certain ontological problems regarding both the subject and the object of representation, that is,the existence of the mimd and that of the represented world. Propsitional attitudes, for instance, presuppose the subject of such inguistic representation, as well as the propositional fact reffered. But the ontological status of the reference is an open question. Mental representations as events also present problems of ontology. How mental events interact wiht physical events, how they are related with neural events,and in what way mental events are functionally autonomous,and such are the problems remaining to be answered. The world of mental representation may be seen as a theoretical world,of which the ontological status depends on the progress in the corresponding empirical science,that is,neuroscience. But the problem of realism in the philosophy of science is still an issue of debate. These,then are philosophical issues related to the ontological status of mental representation. Their solutions,or approaches to them,however, must waite for the further progress in cognitive science,which has philosophy as a humble participant among other disciplines.

This study is to find a theoretical basis for the effective teaching-learning of the geographical concept through comparing two cognitive pshychological perspectives: Piaget's cognitive development stage theory and Vygotsky's theory with higher mectal function and zone of proximal development(ZPD). Piaget't theory of cognitive development stage has been empirically proved in the spatial concept development and provided a basis for geographical educational psychology. In spite of this contribution, it has its own limitation in that students cannot learn cocepts beyond their cognitive development stage. On the other hand, Vygotsky supposed that concept development has been done by teaching-learning. This study suggests that Vygotsky's theory gives more comprehensive thoretical basis for its effective teaching-learning about the geographical concept development.

This paper deals with the anaphoric usage of demonstratives when they refer to what are already mentioned in the context. We examine syntactic, semantic and pragmatic factors that contribute to the choice of demonstratives. As for anaphoric usage, English and Spanish show the even distribution between proximal and distal demonstratives with the meaning of their deictic counterparts. Korean and Russian, however, show the uneven distribution of the more prevalent form (unmarked on) and the lesser one (market one). This study aims at a typological explanation for the anaphoric usage of demonstratives through comparison and contrast with such factors as the distance to the antecedent, cognitive status, psychological distance and the center of attention.

Teaching-learning activities in a school class is influenced by the development of a information science in the 21 century. Recently, the instruction in a school class use a multimedia teaching-learning contents chiefly. A great number of teachers don't recognize a foundation of the effects on teaching-learning contents utilizing multimedia. In this paper, I propose to analyze and verify the foundation of effects on cognitive psychology of multimedia teaching-learning contents. The principal method of this study is to synthesize and analyze researches of scholars or literature study largely. In this paper, the foundations of effects on multimedia teaching-learning contents are following: the dual encoding of information process, the skill on direction and speed-regulation of learning, and the others educational strength. The theoretical conviction in multimedia teaching-learning contents is operated as the confidence of education contents & media utilized by teachers and learners, and is anticipated as the growth of the quantitative and qualitative learning activities.
