They, with respect to functionalism, move from externalism in content to active externalism. Functionalism, coupling system (causal coupling system), parity principle and active externalism are the fundamental elements of the theory. Extended mind is concluded from the extended cognition. The coupling between mind and language, redefinition of memory from the mere reading of the information to creative role, extended epistemology, the coupling system between mind and technology, coupling between cultural elements and mind, and group cognition are such theories rooted in Extended Mind. The following article analytically explains the EM’s various dimensions and its consequences.
