Cognitive map

A cognitive map is a personal mind map or a mapping of the thoughts an individual has about a particular situation or problem of interest. The form of cognitive mapping used in this book follows that of Eden et al., (1988), which is an exploitation of Kelly’s (1955) Psychology of Personal Constructs. Also see concept map.
