Abstract: Much research has been done on physical and cognitive affordances in designed objects, but little has been done on human cognitive capabilities. This paper applies the capability-affordance model to cognitive agent capabilities and affordances. It develops a cognition-affordance model by identifying cognition resources using the SRK model and cognitive task analysis. It proposes four cognition mechanisms and suggests cognitive capability depends on cognitive mechanisms interacting with knowledge. Affordance possibilities depend on different knowledge paths where existing or new agent knowledge is applied/grown by copying or mutation. Mutation may use existing logic creating new knowledge directly applicable to the real world, or, new theoretical knowledge affordances of imagination. We propose a two axis model to link cognitive affordance and imagination. We propose how perceived and cognitive affordances relate to the perception-action axis and that epistemic-axiological axis relate s to the theoretical models of thought to account for creativity in human-agent cognition.
