-Since  the beginning of its intensive development during the 1960s various critics of cognitivism have emerged, challenging its assumption that **mental functions can be compared to information processing model**. Some authors like John Searle ​ or Roger Penrose claim that computation,​ due to its inherent limitations,​ can never achieve the complexity and possibilities of mental functions and therefore cannot be successfully used to describe them. **Gödel'​s incompleteness theorem**(()) or **Turing'​s halting problem**(()) are often held as proves for this point of view.+Since  the beginning of its intensive development during the 1960s various critics of cognitivism have emerged, challenging its assumption that **mental functions can be compared to an information processing model**.

 During the 1970s **humanism** evolved as an opposing view to both behaviorism and cognitivism beginning with the **holistic approach**, belief in the power of an individual and view **learning as a way of fulfilling his potentials**. ​ During the 1970s **humanism** evolved as an opposing view to both behaviorism and cognitivism beginning with the **holistic approach**, belief in the power of an individual and view **learning as a way of fulfilling his potentials**. ​
