This paper presents a dynamic modeling approach that enables to design complex high level conceptual representations of models in the form of causal-temporal networks, which can be automatically transformed into executable numerical model representations. Dedicated software is available to support designing models in a graphical manner, and automatically transforming them into an executable format and performing simulation experiments. The temporal causal network modeling format used makes it easy to take into account theories and findings about complex brain processes known from Cognitive, Affective and Social Neuroscience, which, for example, often involve dynamics based on interrelating cycles. This enables to address complex phenomena such as the integration of emotions within all kinds of cognitive processes, and of internal simulation and mirroring of mental processes of others. In this paper also the applicability has been discussed in general terms.
