A Causal Model Analysis Suggests Modification of the Cumulative Hierarchical Structure Assumed in Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain.
Madaus, George F.; And Others
Bloom's taxonomy of the cognitive domain consists of six major levels: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. The purpose of this study is to construct a quantitative causal model for a set of tests designed to operationally define these six levels in order to further explore the validity of the cumulative hierarchical assumption of the taxonomy.
