On the topic of cognitive complexity, (something I am interested in for
dissertation purposes), I found more than 30 papers but not many
comprehensive reviews. One exception is a chapter devoted to the topic
in the book _Behavior in the Complex Environment_ by Streufert and
Streufert (c. 1978) Pub: V.H.Winston/John Wiley. This chapter covers
Kellyian contributions (Bieri, Tripodi) as well as non-PCP versions of
cog complexity (Scott; Harvey, Hunt & Schroder). In brief, its a good
starting point to look at the literature.
Hope this helps. Mail me if you need other references to single
articles--I have a bunch that I could dig out in a pinch.
