In a prior post, I discussed my theory of how and why mind mapping is useful for people with impaired cognitive functioning and dementia. I noted there that the same general theorem could be applied to those with typical cognitive functioning. The difference between the mind map in this post and that of the prior post is how about a dozen branches are relabelled. This map emphasizes making “healthy” brains closer to optimal functioning. The prior post used the language of a “disease” or “disorder” that might be worked around by using a mind map as an assistive device.

The Integrated Theory goes beyond any explanation of mind mapping for individuals with or without cognitive impairment that I have ever read and I am pretty familiar with the mind mapping literature as well as major extant theories in neuroscience.

And, you ask, does this theorem also apply to those with typical brain functioning such as the typical managers at IBM needing to learn creativity and organization, students in schools from primary grades to students-for-life learning all types of curricula, healthcare providers, researchers, educators, the guy in the next cubicle who can never remember his meetings. Yes. The labels on the branches are a little different but the concepts are identical.

Huba’s Integrated Theory as applied to “typical” thinkers is discussed HERE.

Concerned that the theory looks kind of simple? It is actually quite complex. I spent more than a year trying to formulate it as simply as possible..
