Soccer heading does most damage to brain area critical for cognition, brain imaging study finds
A brain imaging technique developed by Columbia researchers has identified areas in the brain's cerebral cortex—just behind the forehead—that are most damaged by the repetitive impacts from heading a soccer ball. Their study also found that the damage leads to cognitive deficits seen in soccer players who head the ball frequently.

A Biologically Interpretable Cognitive Architecture for Online Structuring of Episodic Memories into Cognitive Maps
Cognitive maps provide a powerful framework for understanding spatial and abstract reasoning in biological and artificial agents. While recent computational models link cognitive maps to hippocampal-entorhinal mechanisms, they often rely on global optimization rules (e.g., backpropagation) that lack biological plausibility. In this work, we propose a novel cognitive architecture for structuring episodic memories into cognitive maps using local, Hebbian-like learning rules, compatible with neura…

OSC: Cognitive Orchestration through Dynamic Knowledge Alignment in Multi-Agent LLM Collaboration
This paper introduces OSC (Orchestrating Cognitive Synergy), a knowledge-aware adaptive collaboration framework designed to enhance cognitive synergy in multi-agent systems with large language models. While prior work has advanced agent selection and result aggregation, efficient linguistic interactions for deep collaboration among expert agents remain a critical bottleneck. OSC addresses this gap as a pivotal intermediate layer between selection and aggregation, introducing Collaborator Knowle…

Evidence of Cognitive Biases in Capture-the-Flag Cybersecurity Competitions
Understanding how cognitive biases influence adversarial decision-making is essential for developing effective cyber defenses. Capture-the-Flag (CTF) competitions provide an ecologically valid testbed to study attacker behavior at scale, simulating real-world intrusion scenarios under pressure. We analyze over 500,000 submission logs from picoCTF, a large educational CTF platform, to identify behavioral signatures of cognitive biases with defensive implications. Focusing on availability bias an…

Financial well-being has an outsize imprint on older Americans’ quality of life
-- affecting their physical health, social life and even cognitive skills.

Low-income seniors are more likely to experience mental confusion,
spend less time pursuing hobbies,
and face difficulties with everyday tasks such as climbing stairs and grocery shopping,
compared with their more affluent counterparts

Evaluating Cognitive-Behavioral Fixation via Multimodal User Viewing Patterns on Social Media
Digital social media platforms frequently contribute to cognitive-behavioral fixation, a phenomenon in which users exhibit sustained and repetitive engagement with narrow content domains. While cognitive-behavioral fixation has been extensively studied in psychology, methods for computationally detecting and evaluating such fixation remain underexplored. To address this gap, we propose a novel framework for assessing cognitive-behavioral fixation by analyzing users' multimodal social media enga…

Structured Cognition for Behavioral Intelligence in Large Language Model Agents: Preliminary Study
Large language models have advanced natural language understanding and generation, yet their use as autonomous agents raises architectural challenges for multi-step tasks. Existing frameworks often intertwine inference, memory, and control in a single prompt, which can reduce coherence and predictability. The Structured Cognitive Loop (SCL) is introduced as an alternative architecture that separates these functions. In SCL, the language model is dedicated to inference, memory is maintained exte…
