Indeed, physics is widely used in modeling social systems, where, in particular, new branches of science such as sociophysics and econophysics have arisen. However, many if not most characteristic features of humans like willingness, emotions, memory, future prediction, and moral norms, to name but a few, are not yet properly reflected in the paradigms of physical thought and theory. The choice of a relevant formalism for modeling mental phenomena requires the comprehension of the general philosophical questions related to the mind-body problem. Plausible answers to these questions are investigated and reviewed, notions and concepts to be used or to be taken into account are developed and some challenging questions are posed as open problems. This text addresses theoretical physicists and neuroscientists modeling any systems and processes where human factors play a crucial role, philosophers interested in applying philosophical concepts to the construction of mathematical models, and the mathematically oriented psychologists and sociologists, whose research is fundamentally related to modeling mental processes.Understanding Complex Systems,1860-0832SociophysicsEconophysicsNeural networks (Computer science)Cognitive psychologyPhilosophy of mindPhysicsData-driven Science, Modeling and Theory Buildinghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33030Mathematical Models of Cognitive Processes and Neural Networkshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13100Cognitive Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20060Philosophy of Mindhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E31000Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Sociophysics.Econophysics.Neural networks (Computer science)Cognitive psychology.Philosophy of mind.Physics.Data-driven Science, Modeling and Theory Building.Mathematical Models of Cognitive Processes and Neural Networks.Cognitive Psychology.Philosophy of Mind.Mathematical Methods in Physics.530.15Lubashevsky Ihorauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut823619MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254589603321Physics of the Human Mind1832737UNINA
