[[John Milton Roberts]] thought that [[social organization]] could be seen as cognition through a [[community]] {{Harv|Roberts|1964}}. He described the cognitive aspects of a society by looking at the present information and how it moves through the people in the society.
[[Daniel L. Schwartz]] (1978) proposed a distribution of cognition through culture and the distribution of beliefs across the members of a society.{{Citation needed|date=August 2013}}
In 1998, Mark Perry from [[Brunel University London]] explored the problems and the benefits brought by distributed cognition to "understanding the organisation of information within its contexts." He considered that distributed cognition draws from the [[information processing]] metaphor of cognitive science where a [[system]] is considered in terms of its inputs and outputs and tasks are decomposed into a [[problem space]].<ref name = "Perry_1998">{{cite conference | vauthors = Perry M | date = 13–15 August 1998 | url = https://www.researchgate.net/publication/2388174 | title = Process, representation and taskworld: distributed cognition and the organisation of information. | conference = Exploring the contexts of information behaviour.

Cognition is said to be "socially distributed" when it is applied to demonstrate how interpersonal processes can be used to coordinate activity within a social group.
