Baker, Frank B. – 1968
The model as currently developed consists of three major aspects: contexting, operation, and memory. The contexting aspects of the model are concerned with the higher level cognitive behavior associated with selection of appropriate behavior, maintenance of goals-directedness, and evaluation of completed behaviors. The operational aspects of the…

Larkin, Jill – American Journal of Physics, 1981
Experienced Physicists solve simple textbook problems differently from beginning students. This paper describes these differences using a computer-implemented model that "learns." The research is set in the the context of modern computer-processing psychology, and is related to other work relevant to help people know and learn…

Pearson, Charls; Slamecka, Vladimir – 1976
This study is designed to help provide an understanding of the role semiosis plays in information processes. The object of study is the structure of various types of signs, and a determination of the relationship between sign structure and information properties. A review of the theory of sign structure is followed by an examination of syntactic…

Lunneborg, Clifford E. – 1977
An interactive assessment system which was built around an existing computer controlled testing facility in the Department of Psychology at the University of Washington is described. The Extensible Multiprograming System for experimental psychology (EMPP) is problem oriented software developed to simplify the programing of psychological…

Lumsdaine, A.A.; And Others – 1970
The work of a three-year series of experimental studies of human cognition is summarized in this report. Proglem solving and learning in man-machine interaction was investigated, as well as relevant variables and processes. The work included four separate projects: (1) computer-aided problem solving, (2) computer-aided instruction techniques, (3)…
