Abstract

In this paper we discuss the possibilities for cognitive psychological investigations of academic competence and use of basic scientific knowledge in practical problem solving. An analogy is drawn between medical and engineering problem solving. A case-representation paradigm developed in studies of medical expertise (Patel & Groen, 1986; Boshuizen & Schmidt, 1992) is adapted as a method for examining five engineers initial representation of problems in an industrial production plant. Propositional analysis shows expertise effects in recall of case material and use of basic process control knowledge. These results suggest that the method is robust and produce results that are comparable with investigations of medical problem solving.
