COGNITIVE SCIENCE

 
Todd Oakley



Associate Professor
of Cognitive Science

Individual Website

My areas of specialization include cognitive linguistics, semiotics, discourse analysis, and rhetoric. These areas of specialization provide the frameworks and methods for tracing the micro-cognitive and phenomenological bases of attention as they make their presence felt in the higher-order activities of social awareness, discourse, and persuasion. I endeavor to describe accurately and explain adequately what makes symbolic action possible.
