与认知的关系
An extensive discussion of the connection of autopoiesis to cognition is provided by Thompson.[13] The basic notion of autopoiesis as involving constructive interaction with the environment is extended to include cognition. Initially, Maturana defined cognition as behavior of an organism "with relevance to the maintenance of itself".[14] However, computer models that are self-maintaining but non-cognitive have been devised, so some additional restrictions are needed, and the suggestion is that the maintenance process, to be cognitive, involves readjustment of the internal workings of the system in some metabolic process. On this basis it is claimed that autopoiesis is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for cognition.[15] Thompson (p. 127) takes the view that this distinction may or may not be fruitful, but what matters is that living systems involve autopoiesis and (if it is necessary to add this point) cognition as well. It can be noted that this definition of 'cognition' is restricted, and does not necessarily entail any awareness or consciousness by the living system.
Evan Thompson在其2007年出版的《生命中的心智》（Mind in Life）中，对自创生与认知的联系进行了广泛的讨论。自创生的基本概念——涉及与环境的建构性互动——被扩展到能够包括认知。最初，Maturana将认知定义为有机体“与维持自身有关”的行为。然而，人们已经设计出了能自我维持但不具有认知性的计算机模型，因此，“认知”需要一些额外的限制。维持过程要具有认知性，最好涉及某些代谢过程中对系统内部运作的重新调整。在此基础上，可以宣称自创生是认知的必要不充分条件。Thompson写道：这种区分可能有结果，也可能没结果；但重要的是，生命系统涉及自创生，认知也涉及（如果有必要加上这点的话）。可以注意到，这种对“认知”的定义是有限制的，不一定需要生命系统的任何意识或觉察。
