An Interpretive Framework of Cognitive Structures

Bart, W. M.; Smith, M. B.

Human Development, 17, 3, 161-175, 74

A precise formulation of both cognitive structure and its related theory is provided through use of the mathematical theory of categories. Weaknesses and imprecision in cognitive theory are identified. Using category theory, cognitive structure and related Piagetian theoretic terms are precisely defined and some interrelationships are discussed. (Author/CS)
