Abstract:
Ideas are created in one’s mind through cognitive processes after obtaining perceptual stimuli either by hearing or reading words or by seeing images. They should have different representations depending on their origin of information, i.e., words or images, and the cognitive processes for dealing with them. The comparison between these processes is often labeled by the terms, “word and wordless thought” and there is a strong argument that favors wordless thought. The purpose of this paper is to compare the two cognitive processes for words and images by applying the state of the art cognitive architecture, the Model Human Processor with Realtime Constraints (MHP/RT) proposed by Kitajima and Toyota, developed for understanding behavioral ecology of human beings. This study shows that the perceived dimensionality of images is larger than that of words, which leads to the conclusion that the number of discriminable states for images is an order of magnitude larger than that of words, and due to this, image-based processing can store information about absolute times in memory but word-based processing cannot. This should lend significantly larger expressive power to image-based processing. It is argued that the loss of reality in word-based processing results in significant implications for the development of globalization and the illusion of mutual understanding in word- level communications.
