To accurately describe the mental gestures that serve attention, understanding, reflection, discovery or invention, Antoine de La Garanderie questioned mental functioning directly, through introspection. This is how he freed the definitions of these fundamental concepts of cognitive psychology from their formal character. For those who, sensitive to his work (1), want to see more clearly, he provides here the bases of his patient investigation. But beyond this response to the demand of practitioners, he claims the right of scientific citizenship for introspection. He affirms that when introspection has as its object the mental structures and contents implemented to lead thoughts and actions, it finds its legitimate meaning. Knowledge about the mind provides the means to ensure mastery of it, opens the ways of the responsible exercise of freedom.
