Since 1980s,different from the traditional constructive approach of representational-computational non-interactive cognition,the constructive approach of interactive cognition has been presented varieties of new scientific practices in the fields of cognitive science,such as artificial intelligence,psychology,linguistics and physiology.The theoretical contents of the construction of interactive cognition mainly are that replacing the cognitive agent of mind by the embodied mind,the isolated world by the subject-embedded world,and the traditional representational-computational cognitive framework by the nonrepresentational-computational.All in all,it defines the cognition as a kind of interactive cognition between body-mind and the embedded environment.The philosophical foundation of the interactive cognition is mainly influenced by phenomenology and the movement of anti-Cartesian dualism,and the practices of the interactive cognition also arose to rethink traditional philosophical issues of mind,meaning and reason.
