Current research trends on cognition, integrative complexity, and decision-making: a systematic literature review using activity theory and neuroscience.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This article presents a systematic literature review that follows the PRISMA and PICOS guidelines to analyze current research trends on cognition, integrative complexity (IC) (a cognitive feature focusing on information processing in a person's response rather than its quantity or quality), and decision-making from the perspectives of activity theory and neuroscience.

Methods

The study examines 31 papers published between 2012 and 2022 and 19 articles specifically related to neuroscience. We performed a content analysis using six categories within activity theory: subjects, objects, rules, community, division of labor, and outcomes.

Results

The study investigates the relationship between decision-making outcomes and IC as a cognitive feature in various co
