{"pk":30788,"title":"Cognition in Design Process","subtitle":null,"abstract":"The purpose of this research is to study the cognitive process in architectural design problem solving. It also will explore a cognitive structure (model) capable of representing the problem solver's cognitive behavior. The goal plan, schemata, perceptual-test, and generate-and-test are regarded as cognitive mechanisms that evolved in the problem solving process. They were observed in an experiment in which an experienced architectural designer was asked to do a residential design.Results from protocol analysis showed that an invariant cognitive structure could be built upon these cognitive mechanisms to explain the problem solving behavior. This cognitive structure (model) also provides a framework for future simulation.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Paper Presentations","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/42c2v2pb","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Chiu-Shui","middle_name":"","last_name":"Chan","name_suffix":"","institution":"Carnegie Mellon University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1989-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30788/galley/20637/download/"}]}
