Cognitive Skills and Their Acquisition

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an empirically based instructional method to improve higher-order thinking strategies, which employs computer-managed simulations that present contextually meaningful problem situations that require students to prepare solution proposals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the possibility that an individual who uses an expert system repeatedly is affected by the system beyond the actual sessions with it and show that novice users produce higher quality decisions than non-users even when they no longer have access to the expert system.

TL;DR: This article showed that the Weibull distribution is still the asymptotic distribution of the minimum and related its parameters to the parameters of the input distributions. But they also showed that for identically distributed, independent, and lower-bounded random variables, whose left tail approximates a power function, the distribution tends toward a Webull distribution as n increases.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider modifying and expanding testing procedures for psychological functions that are components of conventional tests, and the extension oof testing to psychological functions not generally assessed by conventional intelligence or aptitude tests.
