[Associative analysis 2]

Cognitive information 1 (sensory information)
　I note the information from sense organs to consider how to perceive it. The feelings based on memory are related to the amygdala; therefore, emotions are unconsciously portrayed on the face. The properties of columns in the process are 1 base and profile, 2 grouping, and 3 conditioned reflex.

Cognitive information 2 (memory and learning)
　The external information is built into the existing knowledge structure. The new knowledge is named schema and has the property common to the existing information. The unknown information is also categorised. The process is learning through experience. The properties of columns in the process are 1 old information and 2 new information.

Cognitive information 3 (plan, problem resolution, reasoning)
　The received information is available to develop a plan. Hence, I analyse the problem for any purpose and search for a resolution. However, if the received information is not perfect, further reasoning is necessary. The properties of columns in the process are 1 from plan to resolution and 2 from unresolved to reasoning.
