Some learning theories see conceptual knowledge as a source of children’s procedural knowledge. Others assume the opposite to be true or posit bi-directional causal relations. Empirical tests of these assumptions are hampered by the lack of knowledge on how to obtain valid measures of these two constructs. We assessed four different measures of both constructs before and after an intervention a...

Determining which factors promote or impede the sharing of knowledge within organizations constitutes an important area of research. This paper examines knowledge sharing through the lens of equity theory. The study will explore the impact of three types of justice – distributional, procedural and interactional – on knowledge sharing. Hypotheses regarding the influence of distributional, proced...

Learning novel tasks is a complex cognitive activity requiring the learner to acquire diverse declarative and procedural knowledge. Prior ACT-R models of acquiring task knowledge from instruction focused on learning procedural knowledge from declarative instructions encoded in semantic memory. In this paper, we identify the requirements for designing computational models that learn task knowled...

We propose a rule-based framework for representing and reasoning about business processes from both the procedural and ontological point of views. To this end we define a rule-based procedural semantics for a relevant fragment of BPMN, a very popular graphical notation for specifying business processes. Our semantics defines a state transition system by following an approach similar to the Flue...
