MUNOZ-SASTRE, María Teresa; LOPEZ-LOPEZ, Wilson y PINEDA-MARIN, Claudia. Information Integration Theory: Basis Concepts and Applications. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.1, pp.84-105. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-1.cbtf.
Daily life demands constant making judgments or decisions. Some of those decisions may be more or less complex depending on ethical, social, historical and political context of social factors and the interaction of these factors with subjects who judge. The aim of this article is to show how Functional Theory of Cognition allows detailed cognitive decision making process analysis, in which they operate: the valuation of stimuli, integration of psychological representation of these stimuli and finally, explicit answer. This process of judgment meets three rules: addition, multiplication, average, for observing the functions that are generated between the factors involved in decisions and issuing a judgment. This theory has had important applications in the areas of clinical psychology and health, political psychology, sports psychology and developmental psychology, areas in which the paper presents the most relevant findings.
