Peer reviewedWeth, Rudiger, von der; Frankenberger, Eckart – Learning and Instruction, 1995
A series of experiments involving more than 40 mechanical engineers and engineering students with different levels of expertise examined strategies, competence, and style of the designers in problem-solving behavior. A model is proposed that explains differences in designing as an interaction of domain-specific and heuristic competence. (SLD)
