The need for cognition (NFC), in psychology, is a personality variable reflecting the extent to which individuals are inclined towards effortful cognitive activities. Need for cognition has been variously defined as "a need to structure relevant situations in meaningful, integrated ways" and "a need to understand and make reasonable the experiential world". Higher NFC is associated with increased appreciation of debate, idea evaluation, and problem solving. Those with a high need for cognition may be inclined towards high elaboration. Those with a lower need for cognition may display opposite tendencies, and may process information more heuristically, often through low elaboration.

  • Das Kognitionsbedürfnis (need for cognition) ist ein Persönlichkeitsmerkmal der Psychologie. Es beschreibt das Ausmaß, in dem Menschen anstrengende kognitive Tätigkeiten betreiben und genießen. Der Begriff wurde in den 1950er Jahren von Cohen, Stotland und Wolfe eingeführt und von & 1982 so definiert, wie das Persönlichkeitsmerkmal auch heute noch verstanden wird. Menschen mit einem hohen Kognitionsbedürfnis bilden sich eigene Meinungen durch Abwägen von Argumenten. Menschen mit niedrigem Kognitionsbedürfnis hingegen lassen sich oft durch periphere Signale, wie Attraktivität oder Glaubwürdigkeit des Sprechers, beeinflussen. Das Ausmaß des Kognitionsbedürfnisses bestimmt nach dem Elaboration Likelihood Model einen von zwei Wegen, wie persuasive Kommunikation anzuwenden ist (zentraler oder peripherer Weg). Es konnten bislang keine geschlechtsspezifischen Unterschiede beim Kognitionsbedürfnis gezeigt werden. Eine nicht repräsentative Studie unter 60 Studierenden kam zu dem Schluss, dass Studienteilnehmer mit einem höheren Kognitionsbedürfnis im Durchschnitt weniger körperlich aktiv seien als andere Teilnehmer der Studie. Dies weise möglicherweise auf ein geringeres Bedürfnis nach Bewegung hin. (de)
  • The need for cognition (NFC), in psychology, is a personality variable reflecting the extent to which individuals are inclined towards effortful cognitive activities. Need for cognition has been variously defined as "a need to structure relevant situations in meaningful, integrated ways" and "a need to understand and make reasonable the experiential world". Higher NFC is associated with increased appreciation of debate, idea evaluation, and problem solving. Those with a high need for cognition may be inclined towards high elaboration. Those with a lower need for cognition may display opposite tendencies, and may process information more heuristically, often through low elaboration. Need for cognition is closely related to ligaratus, the five factor model domain openness to experience, typical intellectual engagement, and epistemic curiosity (see below). (en)
  • Il bisogno di cognizione (in lingua inglese: Need for Cognition, abbreviato in NFC) in psicologia è una variabile della personalità che riflette la misura in cui gli individui sono inclini ad attività cognitive impegnative. Il bisogno di cognizione è stato definito come "un bisogno di strutturare situazioni rilevanti in modi significativi e integrati" e "un bisogno di comprendere e rendere ragionevole il mondo delle esperienze". Un NFC superiore è associato a una maggiore inclinazione al dibattito, alla riflessione, ponderazione di idee e opinioni e risoluzione di problemi. Individui con un alto indice di bisogno di cognizione sono quindi inclini a un alto livello di elaborazione mentale. Individui con un minore bisogno di cognizione tendono a mostrare tendenze opposte, ad elaborare le informazioni in modo più euristico, spesso attraverso un basso livello di elaborazione. Il bisogno di cognizione come aspetto della personalità è strettamente correlato all'elemento dell'apertura mentale nella teoria dei Big Five, nella quale vengono teorizzati i cinque domini principali della personalità.
