摘要:对工程设计师在寻找和实施新解决方案概念过程中从经验中学到的实践进行了研究。 36 种实践中的每一种都根据其所指向的目标以及它如何将认知分布到设计师的心理世界之外进行了分析。结果表明,设计师以多种方式在其环境中分配认知,这些方式不受限制,例如使用设计工具。他们还建议设计师在特定经验的背景下学习这些实践,可能是通过反复试验或社会观察,而不是手段-目的分析。除两种实践外,所有实践都涉及某种分布式认知,但没有任何案例表明这种分布涉及将执行控制权交给环境。
Abstract: A study was conducted of the practices that engineering designers had learned from experience to apply during the search for, and implementation of, new solution concepts. Each of 36 practices was analysed in terms of the goal it was directed to, and how it distributed cognition beyond the mental world of the designer. The results suggest that designers distribute cognition over their environments in a wide variety of ways which are not restricted, for instance, to using design tools. They also suggest that designers learn these practices in the context of specific experiences, probably by trial and error or social observation rather than means–end analysis. All but two of the practices involved distributed cognition of some kind, but there were no cases where this distribution involved ceding executive control to the environment.
