Adverse drug events (ADEs) may cause serious injuries including death. Spontaneous reporting of ADEs plays a great role in detection and prevention of them, however, underreporting always exists. Although several interventions have been utilized to solve this problem, they are mainly based on experience and the rationale for choosing them has no theoretical base. The vast variety of behavioral ...

This chapter presents a theoretical framework that is being developed in an attempt to construct a computational account of human learning of physical domains. Qualitative Process theory is used to model portions of people's physical knowledge, and Structural Mapping theory is used to characterize the computations that move a learner from one representation to another. The chapter outlines the ...
