Scaling up from Micro Cognition to Macro Cognition: Using SGOMS to build Macro Cognitive Models of Sociotechnical Work in ACT-R
نویسندگان
چکیده
SGOMS is a way of scaling up GOMS models to model multi agent work in complex sociotechnical systems. In particular, it allows GOMS to handle interruptions, multi-tasking, and re-planning. West and Pronovost (2009) discussed some of the theoretical issues around building an SGOMS model in ACT-R. This paper presents work in progress for two such models. Specifically, we used ACT-R to create a model of a worker in a sandwich shop and a model of a commercial airline pilot. Problems with scaling ACT-R up to the macro cognitive level are discussed and solutions are presented.

Scaling and Fractal Concepts in Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity: Comparison of Some Models
Measurement of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity, Ks, is normally affected by flow patterns such as macro pore; however, most current techniques do not differentiate flow types, causing major problems in describing water and chemical flows within the soil matrix. This study compares eight models for scaling Ks and predicted matrix and macro pore Ks, using a database composed of 50 datasets...
متن کاملModeling the Function of Narrative in Expertise
The use of narrative is ubiquitous in the development, exercise, and communication of expertise. Expertise and narrative, as complex cognitive capacities, have each been investigated quite deeply, but little attention has been paid to their interdependence. We offer here the position that treating these two domains together can fruitfully inform the modeling of expert cognition and behavior, an...
متن کاملEndogenous disjoint change
Traditionally, models of macro-political change, like those of macro-economics, have been based on extremely unrealistic assumptions about human cognition, ranging from fully informed and rational to completely random. Following from the work of Herbert Simon and contemporaries, a new tradition has developed based on more realistic ideas of human cognition. This paper lays out the need for such...

Introduction: Complex sociotechnical systems, such as automotive industry, require a proper macro-ergonomic approach to design and implement the work system at micro-ergonomic level. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate effective macroeconomic factors to improve productivity, health and safety of employees in the automotive industry based on Holden & Karsh model. Material and ...
