Peer reviewedBeven, Fred – International Journal of Educational Research, 2002
Examined the knowledge used by motel office personnel to manipulate computer software for everyday tasks. Results suggest that many of the competencies identified were context-specific, and that it may not be possible to apply generic knowledge if the user cannot relate it to the context. (SLD)

Peer reviewedSpelke, Elizabeth S.; And Others – Psychological Review, 1992
Three experiments involving 80 infants provide evidence that infants at 2.5 and 4 months represent objects and surfaces that they no longer perceive and that they operate on their representations to derive information about an event they have never perceived. Experiments suggest that cognition develops concurrently with perception and action. (SLD)

Application of equality constraints on the categories of a variable is a simple and useful extension of multiple correspondence analysis. Equality is an easy way to incorporate prior knowledge. A procedure to deal with unequal category numbers and with subsets of variables is outlined and illustrated. (SLD)
