Summary: | In this paper I take a selective review of work undertaken by my colleagues and me in an
attempt to show the enduring importance of the ‘fine cuts’ approach to psychology. This
approach highlights the importance of causal, specific, and falsifiable psychological

shows that it is still necessary to consider cognition, despite the exciting advances in
Big Data, Artificial Intelligence and computational modelling characterising our field. |
