Following this hypothesis, team researchers have adopted dynamical approaches to better understand the team cognitive processes and states that form team cognition, as well as how they emerge over time. One approach focuses on team coordination dynamics, which examines the coupling of signals between interacting individuals in various modalities, and has been shown to reflect aspects of team functioning including team cognition. However, how changes in team coordination relate to high-level team cognitive processes and states, as well as important events, are not yet fully understood. To this end, we advance a methodological framework for researching team cognition under the dynamical hypothesis. Subsequently, we provided an empirical case-study application of this framework. Thereby, this work contributes methodologically and empirically to a deeper understanding of team cognition, the dynamical hypothesis, and the synergy between them.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e12685"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13397052/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10114776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dynamical hypothesis does not investigate cognition as necessitating explanations in computational or representational terms. Instead, DST is leveraged to approach cognition in temporal terms (e.g., continuous, self-organizing) that often encompass brain-body-environment systems. The contributions collected here examine DST's experimental, methodological, and theoretical roles across such areas as informatics, linguistics, neuroscience, philosophy, and psychology. They explore how DST reshapes debates about computation, representation, and embodiment, extending from individual cognition to artificial and social systems. Papers address advances in fractality, multiscale modeling, and nonlinear methods; applications to behavioral and neural coordination; and theoretical syntheses linking dynamics with cultural and symbolic processes. Together, they assess DST's growing influence in a \"dynamical renaissance\" within the cognitive and brain sciences, highlighting both its promise as a unifying framework and its conceptual challenges. Thus, this provides a comprehensive and critical overview of how the dynamical hypothesis continues to expand, guide, and refine the understanding of cognition as an emergent, temporally extended, and interactive process across biological, social, and artificial domains.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70042"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13397032/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146214532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are striking cross-linguistic differences in the color lexicon, which are primarily attributed to differences in communicative needs, but also striking commonalities, attributed to a common human perceptual system. Here, we challenge this notion of a uniform perceptual structure by experimentally comparing participants from two populations, French from France and Himba from Namibia. They differ in the amount of exposure to ultraviolet radiation, which influences color perception through its effects on eye physiology cumulatively during the individual's lifetime. We found, even after controlling for potential confounds at the individual, color-naming, and cultural levels, that color perception is affected by age significantly more in the Himba participants, suggesting that besides communicative needs, perceptual structure can play a dual role, contributing to both cross-linguistic universals and differences in the color lexicon.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70068"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148284491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper selectively reviews studies that investigated prediction in different populations and discusses what they reveal about the mechanisms and role of language prediction. To build a generalizable model of prediction and to understand the role of prediction in language comprehension and learning, it is crucial to understand both the brain's potential and limits to prediction. Findings from WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) populations have demonstrated the brain's remarkable ability to predict upcoming language. However, findings from diverse populations (e.g., second-language speakers, heritage speakers, low-literacy adults, children and older adults, adults from different socioeconomic backgrounds) highlight important limits to language prediction and suggest that prediction is modulated by individual differences beyond what has been found in WEIRD populations. I suggest that these individual differences can be explained by the currently proposed prediction models without assuming qualitatively different mechanisms for different populations.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70069"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148284397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this review paper, we synthesize research findings and discuss individuals' co-speech gesture production across four concepts (space, time, event, and emotion) that are encoded and expressed differently across languages. These four concepts reflect the wide variation across spoken language encoding that may or may not be present in gesture use. We particularly focus on studies from non-Indo-European languages and non-WEIRD (Western, Education, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) samples to highlight the importance of diversity and inclusion in gesture research. Our review demonstrates that co-speech gestures involve both universal and language-specific patterns when individuals talk about these concepts. We discuss the role of gestures in the broader language-thought debate and offer directions for future research, particularly related to neurodiversity and individual differences. The review asks for new research lines that can specifically advance our knowledge on how gestures conceptualize and reflect cross-linguistic diversity and broadly add to the theoretical discussions on the language-thought interface.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70050"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148158483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Free descriptions seem to focus predominantly on aspects of faces that are inferred, for example, psychological traits, age, attractiveness, and so on, whereas facial features themselves are often described in a limited and imprecise fashion. However, existing research relies heavily on large, industrialized societies of the West, so it is unclear if the peculiar characteristics of facial language are universal or limited to a narrow set of languages. As part of the ongoing effort to diversify cognitive sciences, we investigate this under-researched area through a verbal description task targeting a selection of 51 facial features in a small-scale nonindustrialized group of Maniq speakers (Austroasiatic) and an industrialized group of Polish speakers (Indo-European). Our results suggest facial appearance is poorly coded in both Maniq and Polish. In addition, while the major types of physical facial descriptors used across both languages are similar, Maniq speakers show a more uniform focus on directly observable aspects of faces, whereas Polish speakers are additionally inclined to infer socially relevant meaning from faces, even when not prompted to do so. All in all, although facial appearance is generally difficult to put into words, culture-specific factors shape the language of faces in distinct ways.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70053"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148036467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to one long-standing perspective in the social sciences, people from Chinese cultures think less abstractly than people from Western cultures. Here, we argue that previous studies of attention, perception, and memory suggest that East Asians may think more abstractly than Westerners due to their greater sensitivity to social and physical contexts. We tested these competing hypotheses in studies focused on two operationalizations of abstract thought: event construal and analogical reasoning. In the first three studies (N = 1797), participants chose whether events were best described abstractly or concretely. Across six independent national samples, Chinese participants were more likely than U.S. participants to construe events abstractly. In the next study (n = 965), participants from a more context-sensitive Chinese subculture were more likely to construe events abstractly than those from a less context-sensitive subculture. In the final two studies, participants attempted to solve analogical reasoning problems. Across four independent national samples (N = 677), Chinese participants were more likely than U.S. participants to solve the analogical reasoning problems correctly. Together, these results challenge the claim that Westerners think more abstractly than Chinese people and suggest that context-sensitivity may be an engine of abstract cognition.","PeriodicalId":47822,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Cognitive Science","volume":" ","pages":"e70061"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148036393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
