Brief Overview: AP Psychology – Cognition
Cognition in AP Psychology focuses on mental processes such as thinking, memory, problem-solving, reasoning, decision-making, and language. Students learn how humans encode, store, and retrieve information, how attention and perception influence thought, and how cognitive strategies impact learning and behavior. Key topics include working memory, long-term memory, heuristics, biases, concept formation, and language acquisition. Understanding cognition helps students analyze how people process information and solve problems in everyday life and experimental contexts.
