Literary notes about conceptualization (AI summary)
The term conceptualization is used in literature to describe the process of forming and refining abstract ideas, whether in the context of developmental progression or methodological inquiry. Some works equate increasing levels of conceptualization with cognitive or evolutionary advancement, such as moving from a simple animal brain to a more complex human brain [1, 2, 3]. In other contexts, authors discuss how conceptualization shapes professional practices and theories, for instance in nursing and phenomenology [4, 5, 6, 7]. At times, it serves to demarcate the shift from raw perceptual data to higher-order abstraction, suggesting that many aspects of thought occur automatically [8, 9, 10]. Moreover, several texts present conceptualization as both the product of reflective synthesis and the foundation for further theoretical development [11, 12, 13, 14], highlighting its centrality in bridging everyday experiences with structured academic discourse [15, 16, 17].
