Description - Knowledge Spaces by Dietrich Albert

Based on the formal concept of "knowledge structures" originally proposed by Jean Claude Falmagne and Jeal-Paul Doignon, methodological developments and experimental investigations as well as applications are described for various knowledge domains. This monograph includes three main topics: theoretical issues and extensions of Doignon and Falmagne's theory of knowledge structures; empirical validations of specific problem types and knowledge domains, such as sentence comprehension, problem solving in chess, inductive reasoning, elementary mathematical reasoning and others; and application of knowledge structures in various contexts, including knowledge assessment, intelligent tutoring systems and motor learning. Unlike most other approaches in the literature in cognitive psychology this monograph provides both a rigorous mathematical formulation of knowledge-related psychological concepts and its empirical validation by experimental data.
