Healthy thinking

Article Abstract:

Thinking is aform of cognitive functioning whose relationship to behavior remains an unresolved question. To elucidate this process and its role in behavior adjustment, cognition has been categorized into four features, namely, cognitive content, process, product and structure. This categorization has allowed an analysis of the literature by a process of differentiation within the features. Such an approach may significantly clarify the data in this field allowing a more scientific understanding of the psychologically healthy approaches to cognitive information processing.
