Discussion
Which of the following disciplines helped in the growth and development of cognitive sciences?
Answer: D
Computer science helped cognitive science grow, through computing models of the mind and artificial intelligence that treat thinking as information processing. Anthropology, psychoneuroimmunology and mass communication are named in the other options; the key accepts only computer science, and psychoneuroimmunology concerns links between stress, the nervous system and immunity, so it belongs to health psychology.
Cognitive science grew from psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, philosophy, anthropology and computer science, but the key picks computer science as the discipline that supplied the information processing model.
