The model is based on the conjecture that skill acquisition is a process of progressive development of problem directed knowledge structures which are to a large extent domain specific. A program is described for encoding protocols of human subjects in terms of the modeL","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1979/54","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1979/0054.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1979/54.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1979/bibtex/54","volume":{"slug":"1979","title":"Proceedings of the Sixth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1979","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1979/","year":1979,"location":"Tokyo, Japan","dates":"August 20-23, 1979","editors":"Bruce G.
