Answer: Bryson is engaged in EPISTEMIC COGNITION.

Explanation: EPISTEMIC COGNITION refers to the process of thinking about one's forms of knowledge at a societal not individual level. For example, you hear on the news that flooding has been linked to human activity. Someone else tells you that the information is false, we can’t know for sure. Who do you believe and why? Your reasoning will be shaped by your epistemic cognition, that is, your understanding of how knowledge about the link between flooding and human activity is constructed.

Answer:

The answer is A) epistemic cognition.

Explanation:

Epistemic cognition consists of the process of thinking about the different ways through which an individual acquires knowledge or ways of knowing.

Epistemic cognition is especially important when learners must assess the validity, certainty, reliability or limits related to their knowledge, as well as when learners must work with structured problems. This process is especially important in Massively Open Online Courses.
