Quantum cognition uses the mathematical formalism of quantum probability theory to model psychology phenomena when classical probability theory fails.[1] The field focuses on modeling phenomena in cognitive science that have resisted traditional techniques or where traditional models seem to have reached a barrier (e.g., human memory),[2] and modeling preferences in decision theory that seem paradoxical from a traditional rational point of view (e.g., preference reversals).[3] Since the use of a quantum-theoretic framework is for modeling purposes, the identification of quantum structures in cognitive phenomena does not presuppose the existence of microscopic quantum processes in the human brain.[4][5]
Quantum cognition can be applied to model cognitive phenomena such as information processing[6] by the human brain, language, decision making,[7] human memory, concepts and conceptual reasoning, human judgment, and perception.[8][9][10]
