This article should be removed completely and redirected to the philosophy of mind! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.92.9.55 (talk) 12:02, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

May I respectfully disagree Philosophy of mind has some comment to make on interpretation of mental function, but the appropriate content for this entry is surely about neural mechanisms, their presentation to us as mental phenomena, and what is known about the process of functioning of our mental apparatus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.0.89.125 (talk) 20:13, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do cognitists know the difference between a procedure and a function?

Are they clear, explicit, precise (etcetera) about said precise nitpicky differences or differentiations?

umm, what is the difference between a procedure and a function? BriEnBest (talk) 12:04, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

choices

are choices (specifically those involving actions) mental functions? BriEnBest (talk) 12:04, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Process vs. abstractions

None of the mental processes listed overleaf meets the requirement of being a process as defined elsewhere. Calling them mental is really mental and detrimental. Genezistan (talk) 15:01, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Necessary Redirect?

@Doug Weller: Mental processes seems to link itself to cognitive function and intellectual function with cognition just being a subtype of mental processes. Is this redirect necessary? Idiacanthus 16:56, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Idiacanthus1: as it stood it wasn't a proper article. No sources at all for over 6 years and unclear. What do you suggest? Doug Weller talk 17:10, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: What if we made some sort of disambiguation or directory to its child pages? Idiacanthus 12:28, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Idiacanthus1: I'm not sure exactly what you're proposing, but the text of Intellectual function is "Intellectual function is an accepted way of saying mental function and broader than cognitive function in that it includes psychomotor components. This fundamental distinction is not made clear anywhere else in Wikipedia." No sources and of course the meta-statement doesn't belong there. Doug Weller talk 17:01, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: Alright, that's fair. On that note then, should Intellectual function perhaps redirect to Cognition as well? Idiacanthus 20:28, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
