Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: - Information science transcends basic data management to become a sophisticated cognitive field that integrates human-like intelligence alongside reasoning and decision-making capabilities. Multiple academic disciplines drive this transformation by contributing their theoretical foundations, methodologies, and practical applications which make information science an intellectually rich and adaptive field. This examination delves into foundational disciplines that shape information science while detailing their unique contributions. 1. Cognitive Science – Cognitive science investigates mental processes through the study of perception, memory, reasoning, and decision making. Information science research applies cognitive science principles to explore user information processing mechanisms. Cognitive load theory provides insights to design information systems that reduce cognitive overload which helps users to access and comprehend information. Cognitive models possess the capability to forecast user actions during information retrieval activities. Cognitive Science: The Master Plan for Smart Information Processing It offers
