This book presents a rich theoretical discussion of planning based on cognitive psychology and neuropsychology, and demonstrates how planning can be applied to such practical areas as writing, visual search, and managerial decision-making and skills.
Following a review of the literature on planning, the authors examine the unique role of language as a cognitive tool and the developmental relationship of language to planning and thinking. They then propose a new theory of information processing - the PASS theory - which takes a neuropsychological perspective and in which planning is the main component. The book also contains the authors′ own research findings and methods for measuring individual differences in planning and rating scales for excellence.

J.P. Das is an Indo-Canadian psychologist and an internationally recognized expert in Intelligence. Among his major contributions to psychology is the PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive) theory of intelligence. He is currently engaged in expanding planning to include executive functions. What might be the implications of these higher mental activities for education as well as management behavior is the topic of this book.
Professor Das is an Emeritus Director of the Centre on Developmental & Learning Disabilities (named after him) at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada, and Emeritus Professor in Educational Psychology. He has authored and co-authored over a dozen of books and contributed more than 300 research papers to international journals and edited volumes. His earlier published titles with SAGE include Cognitive Planning: The Psychological Basis of Intelligent Behaviour (1996, co-authored with Binod C. Kar and Rauno K. Parrila); The Working Mind (1998); Reading Difficulties and Dyslexia: An Interpretation for Teachers (2009); and Consciousness Quest: East Meets West (2014).

Turning to recent developments in cognitive psychology and neurophysiology, Cognitive Planning presents a new model planning. Incorporated into this model's analysis of planning are the environmental and cultural factors that affect activity, action, and operation. The authors to this timely volume focus on the unique role of language as a cognitive tool, the developmental relationship of language to planning and thinking, the emergence of information theory, and developments in computer science. The volume also draws from current research on visual search, composition writing, and managerial decision making to develop new methods for composing rating scales for excellence in management. Taking practical concerns and shaping them into research questions, Cognitive Planning adds significantly to the new inquiries into this area. The volume provides information of special interest to researchers and students in cognitive psychology, behavioral psychology, neurosciences, and management studies. - J.P.
