At modellere tavs viden

Den gængse opdeling mellem automatiske og kontrollerede processer gennemgås kort, idet det fremhæves, at flere moderne generelle modeller af menneskers kognitive præstationer stemmer overens med hensyn til den dobbelte arkitektur bag sondringen. Et bredt begreb om tavs viden fremstilles i relation til bestemmelser af eksplicit og implicit viden. Inden for dette brede begreb skelnes mellem (i) baggrundsviden og kontekstviden, samt mellem (ii) ikke-repræsentatione/ viden (perceptuelle og sensorisk-motoriske færdigheder) og den viden, der er indeholdt i den globale sammenhæng mellem vidensstrukturer. Artiklenslutter med nogle korte bemærkninger om mulighederne for at modellere tavs viden.The widely accepted distinction between automatic and controlled processes is briefly reviewed, and it is stressed that several modern general framework theories of human cognitive performance share the dual architecture position underlying this distinction. A broad concept of tacit knowledge is presented in relation to characterisations of explicit and implicit knowledge. Two distinctions are made within the wider concept of tacit knowledge: between background knowledge and context knowledge; and between non-representational knowledge (perceptual and sensori-motor skills) and the knowledge imbedded in the global interconnectedness of knowledge structures. The paper concludes with some briefremarks on the prospects of modelling tacit knowledge
