Abstract

By focusing on the cognitive processes involved, like decision-making, problem-solving, and knowledge application, cognitive task analysis (ACTA) helps to uncover the mental models, strategies, and shortcuts that guide human performance. Unlike traditional methods that might prioritize quantitative data, ACTA allows for a detailed exploration of the ways experts think, perceive, and interact with their environments. This approach is valuable in fields where nuanced understanding of expertise is critical, such as healthcare, aviation, and military operations. Further research into applied cognitive task analysis may inform training, improve decision-making, and enhance overall system design. Qualitative Insights Through Applied Cognitive Task Analysis explores the advanced methodologies of applied ACTA with a focus on qualitative data. It examines how ACTA can be utilized to decode complex mental processes and decision-making strategies in various fields, ranging from education to high-stakes environments like healthcare and military operations. This book covers topics such as cognitive science, task analysis, and knowledge audits, and is a useful resource for academicians, researchers, data scientists, cognitive scientists, and educators.
