- Events—the experiences we think we are having and recall having had—are constructed; they are not what actually occurs. What occurs is ongoing dynamic, multidimensional, sensory flow, which is somehow transformed via psychological processes into structured, describable, memorable units of experience.

What are events in psychology?
Events are at the center of human experience, and event cognition is the study of how people perceive, conceive, talk about, and remember them [1]. A current focus of interest is how cognitive systems form and update representations of events, namely event models.

Oct 1, 2017 · We first outline the Event Horizon Model, which broadly describes the impact of event boundaries on cognition and memory. Then, we address recent work on event segmentation, the role of event cognition in working memory and long-term memory, including event model updating, and long term retention.

In science and engineering, we teach about processes and causal mechanisms by showing them in operation in events—think of lab demos, narrative explanations of mechanisms, diagrams, or animations.
The concept of an event, and of event representation, is an umbrella notion. We should therefore speak about a plurality of concepts. We have provided an overview of different ways events have been dealt with in philosophy and in linguistics and, to a minor extent, in cognitive science. This variety of positions has been construed in part as the result of different descriptive and explanatory ...
Feb 25, 2020 · Events and event prediction are pivotal concepts across much of cognitive science, as demonstrated by the papers in this special issue. We first discuss how the study of events and the predictive processing framework may fruitfully inform each other.

Events are the stuff of our everyday lives, and their shape is the shape of our conscious experience. From perception to memory to judgment to the control of action, events are major volumes in our library of mental representation. Many features of event cognition reflect broader principles of perception and cognition.
Jul 8, 2014 · Event models capture the entities and functional relations involved in understanding a specific state of affairs. This is in comparison with system models, which hold true across a range of circumstances. Event models can be derived from live experience or from linguistic descriptions.
