A Model Based on Chemical Reaction for the Neural Processes Involved in Cognition
p. [21]-[34]
Abstract
After briefly reviewing cunent psychological and neurophysiological knowledge about cognitive processes it is presented a chemical reaction paradigm which allows quantitative analysis of their dynamics. It is also made a reinterpretation of the model in terms of dendrodendritic local computations as well as of somato-axonal communication at a distance. It is suggested the possible utility of this model for the understanding of psychopharmacological therapy of mental disorders
