Mind as Magnitude: Reconsidering Information Processing in Cognitive Engineering

The purpose of this paper is twofold: (i) to explore how the predominant information processing paradigm has shaped cognitive engineering; (ii) to propose an alternative framework for cognitive engineering, in which magnitude takes equal importance to information categorization. This reconceptualization of cognitive engineering opens up new topics for human factors research as well as new approaches to human factors measurement. It is intended that this paper will highlight a fruitful path for reconsidering information processing in cognitive engineering.
