A puzzle for epistemic WAMs

Puzzle test: A tool for non-analytical clinical reasoning assessment

Most contemporary clinical reasoning tests typically assess non-automatic thinking. Therefore, a test is needed to measure automatic reasoning or pattern recognition, which has been largely neglected in clinical reasoning tests. The Puzzle Test (PT) is dedicated to assess automatic clinical reasoning in routine situations. This test has been introduced first in 2009 by Monajemi et al in the Oly...

Evaluation of the Epistemic Depths for Resolving the Muddy Children Puzzle

We evaluate the 3 child muddy children puzzle using the epistemic logic of shallow depths GLEF . We give a resolution to the puzzle that involves only shallow depths of interpersonal inferences and does not use common knowledge. This resolution makes the necessary beliefs, interpersonal inferences, and interpretations of inactions explicit. We also show that our resolution is a minimal one in a...

Epistemic Networks for Epistemic Commitments

The ways in which people seek and process information are fundamentally epistemic in nature. Existing epistemic cognition research has tended towards characterizing this fundamental relationship as cognitive or belief-based in nature. This paper builds on recent calls for a shift towards activity-oriented perspectives on epistemic cognition and proposes a new theory of ‘epistemic commitments’. ...

Epistemic frames for epistemic games

This paper, develops the concept of epistemic frames as a mechanism through which students can use experiences in video games, computer games, and other interactive learning environments to help them deal more effectively with situations outside of the original context of learning. Building on ideas of islands of expertise [Crowley, K., & Jacobs, M. (2002). Islands of expertise and the developm...
