Objective: To present a multidimensional scale for identifying strategic thinkers and profiling strategists. Research Design & Methods: The multi-method approach used included systematic literature review, qualitative studies (biographical IDI’s), quantitative research (a survey). Findings: First, the review conceptualised operationalised multi-dimensional construct of thinking. Second, bio...

T he task of designing a systematic program for testing and teaching higher order thinking skills is formidable, yet recent advances in the ory and research provide some basis for defining a core of fundamental skills and for designing exercises that require using such skills Since testing programs at the national, state, and local levels are being used to assess students' reasoning skills, the...

When presented with negative outcomes, people often engage in counterfactual thinking imagining various ways that events might have been different. This appears to be a spontaneous behavior, with considerable adaptive value. Nevertheless, counterfactual thinking may also engender systematic biases in various judgment tasks, such as allocating blame for a mishap, or deciding on the appropriate c...

Granular computing becomes known as an innovative multidisciplinary study and has established much attention in recent years. The framework shared multiple views and multiple levels of understanding in each view from many fields. The three components of the theory are labeled as the philosophy, methodology and the computation, the integration of the above view of granular computing as a way of ...

Complete algorithms for solving propositional satis ability fall into two main classes: backtracking search (e.g., the Davis-Putnam Procedure [1]) and resolution (e.g., Directional Resolution [4]). Backtracking may be viewed as a systematic \guessing" of variable assignments, while resolution invokes making inferences, i.e. \thinking". Experimental results show that \pure guessing" or \pure thi...

Algorithmic bias refers to systematic and structured errors in an artificial intelligence system that generate unfair results inequalities. This column discusses how algorithms appears, amplifies over time, shapes people’s thinking, potentially leading discrimination.

The concept of innateness appears in systematic research within cognitive science, but it also appears in less systematic modes of thought that long predate the scientific study of the mind. The present studies therefore explore the relationship between the properly scientific uses of this concept and its role in ordinary folk understanding. Studies 1-4 examined the judgments of people with no ...

The rise of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 and increasing reliance on digital economy drive need for a new set skills, especially in robotics learning, that includes computational thinking (CT) adversarial (AT) young generation. CT-related skills various fields, such as robotics, engineering, computer science, mathematics, music, arts, humanities. Therefore, adopting robotic learning with CT AT ...
