[comp.ai] Mental Models

fordjm@byuvax.bitnet (10/24/87)

   I am getting ready to conduct a literature search to
   learn more about mental models from a cognitive
   psychology perspective.  I am familiar with Gentner &
   Stevens' (1983) "Mental Models" and P. Johnson-Laird's
   (1983) book by the same name.

   Can anyone point me to an existing bibliography or
   recent references on this topic since 1983?  Also, is
   anyone out there currently doing research in this
   area?  Although I would find general references useful,
   I am particularly interested in applications of
   mental models theories in instructional/educational
   psychology and measurement.

   Please send responses to me via e-mail and I will
   summarize to the net.  Thanks in advance.
