  2. Problem Solving

    The major cognitive processes in problem solving are representing, planning, executing, and monitoring. The major kinds of knowledge required for problem solving are facts, concepts, procedures, strategies, and beliefs. Classic theoretical approaches to the study of problem solving are associationism, Gestalt, and information processing.

    Additional Problem Solving Strategies:. Abstraction - refers to solving the problem within a model of the situation before applying it to reality.; Analogy - is using a solution that solves a similar problem.; Brainstorming - refers to collecting an analyzing a large amount of solutions, especially within a group of people, to combine the solutions and developing them until an optimal ...

  4. Problem-Solving in Cognitive Psychology

    Conclusion. Problem-solving is a subject of study not only in cognitive psychology but also in other areas since this concept characterizes the individual from different perspectives and distinguishes people from other living beings. Applying critical thinking and combining experience with knowledge shape the basis of this model.

    Fixation occurs when solver is fixated on wrong approach to problem. It often is result of past experience. Fixation refers to the blocking of solution paths to a problem that is caused by past experiences related to the problem. NEGATIVE SET (set effects) - bias or tendency to solve a problem a particular way.

  6. Cognitive Approach In Psychology

    The cognitive approach began to revolutionize psychology in the late 1950s and early 1960s to become the dominant approach (i.e., perspective) in psychology by the late 1970s. Interest in mental processes was gradually restored through the work of Jean Piaget and Edward Tolman. Tolman was a 'soft behaviorist'.

  8. On the cognitive process of human problem solving

    Problem solving is a cognitive process of the brain that searches a solution for a given problem or finds a path to reach a given goal. When a problem object is identified, problem solving can be perceived as a search process in the memory space for finding a relationship between a set of solution goals and a set of alternative paths.

  9. Cognitive, Metacognitive, and Motivational Aspects of Problem Solving

    Abstract. This chapter examines the role of cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational skills in problem solving. Cognitive skills include instructional objectives, components in a learning hierarchy, and components in information processing. Metacognitive skills include strategies for reading comprehension, writing, and mathematics.

  10. On the cognitive process of human problem solving

    The combination of the above cases in problem solving can be summarized in Table 1, which identifies four types of problem solving, i.e., proof, instance, case study, and explorative/creative problem solving.A special case in Table 1 is that when both the goal and path are known, the case is only a solved instance for a given problem. In a related work (Wang, 2008d), the cognitive process of ...

  13. Analysing Complex Problem-Solving Strategies from a Cognitive

    Complex problem solving (CPS) is considered to be one of the most important skills for successful learning. In an effort to explore the nature of CPS, this study aims to investigate the role of inductive reasoning (IR) and combinatorial reasoning (CR) in the problem-solving process of students using statistically distinguishable exploration strategies in the CPS environment.

  14. Cognitive control, intentions, and problem solving in skill learning

    Cognitive control uses highly generalised representations and problem solving methods which are an inefficient means for producing the specialised responses of skill (Anderson, 1982 ). In other words, cognitive control is specialised for reasoning, not action control, and it is a clumsy tool to use for action control.

    1. Introduction. In cognitive science, the temporal dynamics of problem-solving processes have always been an important topic of investigation. Most problems are assumed to be solved gradually, by piecing together information in order to arrive at a solution (Newell and Simon 1972).To investigate these problems, several tools have been developed, which allow for the observation of each step of ...

    1.4.1 The Stages of Problem Solving. The situation that prevails at the beginning of the problem solving task is the initial state. The system then moves through a series of different, intermediate states, designed to lead to the goal. When the goal is achieved, the system is said to have attained the goal state.
