Cognitive Psychology

Fourth Edition   Juola, Koshino, © 2022, 516 pages

Cognitive Psychology covers the traditional areas in cognition, including sensation, perception, imagery, attention, short- and long-term memory, language, higher mental process, and life-span development. New material is added for cognition and emotions, consciousness, and human-technology interactions. The emphasis is on careful review of the classic studies that defined the field of cognitive psychology and the development of contemporary neural network theories of how the mind works to produce conscious experience and observable behavior.

James Juola person
Dr. Juola is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Kansas (KU) and Emeritus Professor of Human-Technology Interaction at Eindhoven University of Technology (TUE) in the Netherlands. He received his PhD in psychology from Stanford University in 1972 and began a teaching and research career, mainly at the University of Kansas, that spanned 42 years. In 1985, he received a Fulbright Fellowship to join the research faculty at the Institute for Perception Research at TUE and began a 29-year partnership with TUE and Philips Research Laboratories, also headquartered in Eindhoven, as a researcher and half-time professor.

Dr. Juola also served as a Visiting Professor of Psychology for 2 years at the Autonomous University of Madrid, Spain, and one semester at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania. He has published over 100 research and theoretical papers and given lectures in 12 countries in the areas of attention, perception, memory, life-span development, human-technology interaction, and robotics
Hideya Koshino person
Dr. Koshino is Professor of Psychology and co-director of the Learning Research Institute at California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB). He received his PhD in cognitive psychology from the University of Kansas in 1994 and started a teaching and research career at CSUSB. He also received a postdoctoral fellowship for training in brain imaging (fMRI) at the Department of Psychology at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

In 2007, he served as a visiting associate professor at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan, and also as a visiting professor at Osaka University in Osaka, Japan, from 2015 to 2016. He has published over 30 papers and book chapters and given lectures in the areas of attention, working memory, life-span development, and autism, as well as brain-imaging applications to the study of cognitive psychology. His current research interests include emotional attention, reasoning and working memory, and mind wandering and mindfulness meditation.
