Investment of Attention as an Analytic Approach to Cognitive Dimensions

چکیده

Green’s Cognitive Dimensions of Notations framework has attracted sustained attention from researchers investigating programming (Yang et el., 1998; Roast & Siddiqi, 1996; Williams and Buehler, 1998) and other design activities in which the design notation is an essential element of the design process or product (Tweedie, 1995; Buckingham Shum and Hammond, 1994). More recently, the Cognitive Dimensions (CDs) have been applied in investigating the usability of other types of software notations, user interfaces, and “information artefacts” (Green and Blackwell, 1998; Britton and Jones, 1998). The increasing generality of CDs is both encouraging and challenging. It is encouraging in that it affirms the value of psychology of programming as a discipline that provides novel theoretical contributions to more general problems in cognitive ergonomics. It is challenging in that it draws our attention to issues that were less important in earlier formulations of CDs, but are required of general approaches to cognitive ergonomics.
