The mental process of acquiring knowledge via thought, experience, and sensation; the mental process of knowing, judging, thinking, learning, and imagining. Cognitive tasks include the perception and interpretation of sensory information, such as the comparison and association of new information with existing knowledge and experience. Cognitive processing occurs both consciously and unconsciously. Higher-level cognitive functions, or executive functions, include the ability to integrate motor responses into a meaningful sequence and the ability to project one’s self into the past and the possible future from an internal, or autobiographical, perspective.[1]
