I. THE BRAIN

I.1. Cognitive processes of the brain  

The Global Cognitive Theory focuses on the consequences of the General Theory of Conditional Evolution of Life of 1992 on the philosophy of the meta cognition. It analyses the information systems, the cognitive aspects of the brain, and the psychology of knowledge in relation with neuroscience and evolution of brain in modern culture.

Regardless other possible points of view, according to the Global Cognitive Theory, there is no difference between the terms brain and mind which doesn’t mean denying the intrinsic liberty of Life.

Included in the related links are the four free on-line books in which the exposition of the Global Cognitive Theory is divided: the brain and computers, intelligence and creativity, memory, and finally will: the processes of making decisions, and artificial intelligence.

Also listed in the related links to the Global Cognitive Theory is the online book on the General Theory of the Conditional Evolution of Life. Both theories address the central theme of intelligence, its mechanisms, origin, and evolution from various perspectives.

There is also a link to the on-line book of the Global Scientific Method and the philosophy of science. It includes the design of new scientific methods and the classification of the stages and steps of the scientific method; understanding the scientific method in the broad sense as the application of logic to the generation of common knowledge with a high level of reliability.

The scientific method works fine in general, but it works much better in its developmental phase than in its phase of general acceptance. All types of social interests affect the last phase, from the realm of sociology as in the case of Darwin’s theory, to the technician nature as in the case of the Theory of Relativity.

The last item of the related links is The EDI Study about Evolution and Design of Intelligence, a complete statistical survey on the heritability of intelligence performed on the fieldwork database of the Young Adulthood Study, 1939-1967

This statistical study is an empirical research about some considerations of the Global Cognitive Theory related with the brain and evolution, in particular the definition of intelligence.

The results of the statistical survey The EDI Study regarding an elegant intelligence show some important considerations:

• The hereditary nature of relational intelligence is confirmed.

• The genetic information with less intellectual potential is the significant one, as the GTCEL states regarding the concept of conditional intelligence.

• Likewise, it seems that the main functions of intelligence, or those evolving faster, are fairly concentrated in only one chromosome.

• The most innovative element of this work on cognitive psychology is undoubtedly the section relating to simulation. This section contains the explanation of how the artificial intelligence quotient vectors are generated by using the previsions of the new theory of evolution; they practically behave like the variables that were actually observed, in despite of the intrinsic complexity involved.

• As if that were not enough, with the due caution this subject deserves, the existence of a finalistic or teleological evolution is scientifically proven to agree with that indicated by the General Theory of Conditional Evolution of Life.

Given that the current results in this book suggest a fairly radical change from the common opinions held by the majority of the scientific community and society, the logical deduction is that more extensive studies on cognitive psychology using the same methodology need to be performed.

An example of further exploration of this study is found in the section that has been added subsequently, which is related to partner choice and intelligence. In this section a hypothesis regarding a concrete requisite of the acceptable limit of the difference in intelligence when forming a couple, is confirmed and simultaneously reinforces the model's overall coherence. In fact, the requirement refers to the unconscious choice of an unknown intelligence for current cognitive psychology.
