Propondo para a compreensão da cognição individual a ideia da atuação do corpo cognitivo, que procura explicar, de que se constitui, como se configura e atua. Então, arrisca a metáfora da atuação do corpo cognitivo como abordagem epistêmica das formas de construção e difusão de conhecimento numa comunidade de prática, seguindo os estudos de Wenger e tendo como lócus de atuação e observação a comunidade de prática que trabalha na manutenção do ambiente Moodle na Universidade Federal da Bahia. A atuação do corpo cognitivo dá rota a esta navegação que tem como rumo a criação coletiva do conhecimento e justifica-se socialmente pela importância de desenvolver o conhecimento do conhecer. / ABSTRACT The thesis Cognitive Body Enaction, based on the metaphorical transit between individual and collective cognition, is developed in an interdisciplinary qualitative research that takes human cognition theoretical references from Varela, Thompson, Rosch, Lakoff, Johnson and others embodied mind studies and Damásio's conscious mind. Proposing the individual cognition understanding by means of cognitive body enaction idea, explains his constitution, how stands up and actuates. Then, taking some risk, proposes the cognitive body enaction metaphor as an epistemic approach to forms of knowledge construction and dissemination in a community of practice, following Wenger's studies and using the community of practice that maintains the Moodle environment at Federal University of Bahia as locus for action and observation. The cognitive body enaction gives route to this navigation, whose direction is the collective knowledge creation which is socially justified by the knowledge of knowing development.

Action in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: an Enactive Psycho-phenomenological and Semiotic Analysis of Thirty New Zealand Women's Experiences of Suffering and Recovery

Hart, M J Alexandra January 2010 (has links)
This research into Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) presents the results of 60 first-person psycho-phenomenological interviews with 30 New Zealand women. The participants were recruited from the Canterbury and Wellington regions, 10 had recovered. Taking a non-dual, non-reductive embodied approach, the phenomenological data was analysed semiotically, using a graph-theoretical cluster analysis to elucidate the large number of resulting categories, and interpreted through the enactive approach to cognitive science. The initial result of the analysis is a comprehensive exploration of the experience of CFS which develops subject-specific categories of experience and explores the relation of the illness to universal categories of experience, including self, ‘energy’, action, and being-able-to-do. Transformations of the self surrounding being-able-to-do and not-being-able-to-do were shown to elucidate the illness process. It is proposed that the concept ‘energy’ in the participants’ discourse is equivalent to the Mahayana Buddhist concept of ‘contact’. This characterises CFS as a breakdown of contact. Narrative content from the recovered interviewees reflects a reestablishment of contact. The hypothesis that CFS is a disorder of action is investigated in detail. A general model for the phenomenology and functional architecture of action is proposed. This model is a recursive loop involving felt meaning, contact, action, and perception and appears to be phenomenologically supported. It is proposed that the CFS illness process is a dynamical decompensation of the subject’s action loop caused by a breakdown in the process of contact. On this basis, a new interpretation of neurological findings in relation to CFS becomes possible. A neurological phenomenon that correlates with the illness and involves a brain region that has a similar structure to the action model’s recursive loop is identified in previous research results and compared with the action model and the results of this research. This correspondence may identify the brain regions involved in the illness process, which may provide an objective diagnostic test for the condition and approaches to treatment. The implications of this model for cognitive science and CFS should be investigated through neurophenomenological research since the model stands to shed considerable light on the nature of consciousness, contact and agency. Phenomenologically based treatments are proposed, along with suggestions for future research on CFS. The research may clarify the diagnostic criteria for CFS and guide management and treatment programmes, particularly multidimensional and interdisciplinary approaches. Category theory is proposed as a foundation for a mathematisation of phenomenology.
