Cognitive Anthropology is a subfield of anthropology that explores how cultural beliefs and practices shape human thought processes. It examines the ways in which people from different cultures perceive, categorize, and interpret their experiences. By studying language, symbols, and social practices, cognitive anthropologists aim to understand the mental frameworks that guide behavior and decision-making. This discipline often intersects with cognitive science and linguistics, as it investigates the relationship between culture and cognition. Researchers may analyze how cultural narratives influence memory, problem-solving, and social interactions, providing insights into the diverse ways humans understand the world around them.
