Abstract:
Researchers have developed and applied a number of methods for measuring mental models. Unfortunately not only is the mental model construct ill-defined, but the basic research associated with it offers little guidance concerning the selection of a method for a particular application. In this paper a program of research is presented that is designed address this shortcoming. Specifically, the research involves a comparative evaluation of methods to measure mental models on the basis of the relationship between the method's output (i.e., the mental model) and the criterion of primary importance

Abstract:
Mental models describe an internal representation of knowledge of an individual or group, which can be used to interpret interactions with their environment and provide insight into decision-making strategies and prediction of performance. There are several ways to elicit mental models and analyze them; however, there is little guidance for selecting an appropriate elicitation method. Depending on different constraints of research and desired outcomes, different elicitation methods are more appropriate than others. Three criteria were identified as useful for selecting an appropriate elicitati

Abstract:
Although use of the mental model construct has proliferated in recent research, the construct lacks a clear definition and an agreed upon method of measurement. Furthermore, the reliability and validity of the different measurement techniques in use have not been established, thereby making generalizations across studies of mental models difficult. The purpose of the current project was to assess several methods of measuring mental models in terms of their reliability/stability over time.

Abstract:
Estimating the parameters of a multiple linear model is a common task in all areas of sciences. In order to obtain conjugate distributions, the Bayesian estimation of these parameters is usually carried out using noninformative priors. When informative priors are considered in the Bayesian estimation an important problem arises because techniques arerequired to extract information from experts and represent it in an informative prior distribution. Elicitation techniques can be used for suchpurpose even though they are more complex than the traditional methods. In this paper, we propose a techn

Mental models describe an internal representation of knowledge, which can be used to describe, explain, and predict a person’s interactions with their environment. While there is no shortage on mental model research, a recent literature review revealed the majority of research on mental models does not include an actual model of any kind. Mental models are able to capture complex information, which is difficult to effectively convey through written word alone. A set of visual metaphors are needed to effectively convey the disparate information that can be identified in mental models. We have c

We studied the impact of Ecological Interface Design (EID) displays on mental models using the DURESS II simulator. To assess mental models we used a card sorting exercise, a network building exercise based on the Abstraction Hierarchy, and a system behavior prediction exercise. Participants in the EID condition performed significantly better on the card sorting and network building exercises, but poorer on the prediction exercise. Our results are mixed, suggesting that EID may improve the understanding of means- end links and yet, not improve the ability to predict system behavior. The relati

This paper illustrates the utility of mental model assessment in discriminating between high and low performers in terms of cognitive and metacognitive processes. Distinct computer-based knowledge elicitation methods were utilized to assess the acquisition of different knowledge types as well as the development of participants' mental models when training for a complex task. Additionally, participants' metacognitive accuracy was also measured. Results suggest that mental model assessment is diagnostic of knowledge acquisition for a complex task and mental model accuracy is related to accuracy

Abstract:
AbstractGestures are a preferred mode of interaction for smartwatches and these are commonly elicited either by expert/designers or by users. This paper aims to understand the most promising approach for generating and assessing gestures by employing two empirical studies to validate a set of expert/designer-generated gestures. It further gains insights into the users' mental models, their role as co-creators, and their considerations for one-handed gestures in smartwatches, and discusses the virtue of incorporating both approaches of gesture elicitation.
