A Case for Applying an Abstracted Quantum Formalism to Cognition
arXiv:quant-ph/0404068 · doi:10.1016/j.newideapsych.2010.06.002
Abstract
This chapter outlines some of the highlights of efforts undertaken by our group to describe the role of contextuality in the conceptualization of conscious experience using generalized formalisms from quantum mechanics.
