A Neuromathematical Model of Human Information Processing and Its Application to Science Content Acquisition.

Anderson, O. Roger

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v20 n7 p603-20 Oct 1983

A mathematical model of information acquisition is presented and empirically evaluated in comparison to evidence obtained from experimental studies of science content acquisition. Implications of the model for human information acquisition and future research are discussed in the context of the unique theoretical framework of the model. (Author/JN)
