What is Cognition Trivia?

Cognition Trivia is FOKIQ's running archive of 150 brain-science questions, each backed by a primary source — a paper, book chapter, or monograph we can point to on Google Scholar. Not pop-psychology. Not "studies show." A specific researcher, a specific year, a specific finding. One verified claim per day, traceable.

How to use this

Each question lives at /tips/[N] — Day 1 through Day 150. Open the entry, read the stem, decide on your answer, then reveal the explanation and the citation. Every question cross-links into the FOKIQ glossary so the underlying terms (working memory, chunking, neuroplasticity, reaction time) sit one click away. Nothing here is locked, paywalled, or account-gated. The Cognition Bible is content; FOKIQ pairs it with the daily puzzle and the brain type system so the trivia and the gameplay reinforce each other.

About the sources

The Cognition Bible is built on the canonical literature: Miller on working memory; Baddeley & Hitch on the phonological loop; Cowan on the magical-number-4 revision; Sperling on iconic memory; Ebbinghaus on the forgetting curve; Tulving on episodic vs. semantic memory; Loftus on the misinformation effect; Posner and Treisman on attention; Tversky & Kahneman on heuristics, biases, and the dual-process frame. Distractors are real misconceptions, not random false numbers — half the educational value is the distractor mapping.

Editorial discipline: every claim cites a paper that exists, that we can point to on Google Scholar, and whose finding the question accurately summarizes. No fabricated authority strings. No "scientists at Harvard found." No name-drops without paper-level grounding. No brain-training claims the literature does not support.
