Cognitive control: componential and yet emergent

Abstract

In this commentary, I will argue that the componential and emergent views of cognitive control as defined by Cooper (2010) do not necessarily oppose each other, and I will try to make a case for their interdependence. First, I will use the construct of cognitive inhibition-one of the main componential control functions mentioned in the target articles-to illustrate my line of reasoning. Then, I will comment on how some of the target articles, each from a different perspective, bring arguments in favor of this integrative view.

Keywords: Cognitive control; Cognitive inhibition; Cognitive modeling.
