释义 |
HistoryCognitive anthropology has strong ties to ethnoscience and linguistics. ScopeCognitive anthropology studies a range of domains including folk taxonomies, the interaction of language and thought, and cultural models.[2] From a linguistics stand-point, cognitive anthropology uses language as the doorway to study cognition.[3] Its general goal is to break language down to find commonalities in different cultures and the ways people perceive the world.[4] Linguistic study of cognitive anthropology may be broken down into three subfields: semantics, syntactics, and pragmatics. MethodsIn contrast to traditional ethnographic methods in cultural anthropology, cognitive anthropology primarily uses quantitative methodologies in order to study culture. Because of the field's interest in determining shared knowledge, consensus analysis has been used as its most widely used statistical measure.[5] One of the techniques used is Cultural Network Analysis, the drawing of networks of interrelated ideas that are widely shared among members of a population.[6] Recently there has been some interchange between cognitive anthropologists and those working in artificial intelligence.[7] Relation with cognitive scienceAnthropology is one of six fields which contributed to the founding of cognitive science. However, anthropology has been criticised for being detached from cognitive science.[8] See also
