The Cognitive Process - Successful Cross-Cultural Communication
Ways of Thinking: The Cognitive Process
Every message is “encoded” and “decoded” around seven main areas of human experience. Let’s look at “The Cognitive Process” which is the way people think.
Three major thinking patterns;
- Conceptual = postulate thinking; abstract; inclined toward inductive logic (linear)
- Psychical (psychological) = intuitive; instinctual; emotive; inclined toward being alogical.
- Concrete relational = object oriented; applicative; inclined toward deductive logic (cyclical).
