How to Measure the Behavioural and Cognitive Complexity of.. - Rauterberg, Aeppli (1996)   (Correct)

....humans are intrinsically looking for stimulation. They increase the complexity of the context or the perception of it. On the other side, humans try to avoid situations with a high amount of stimulation, dissonance, or stress. Hunt designated this amount of increased complexity as incongruity [Hunt 1963]. If the complexity of the mental model ( cognitive complexity ) is less complex than the complexity of the context (e.g. an interactive system) then humans try to optimize this positive incongruity [Rauterberg 1995] Seeking behaviour starts, when the positive incongruity sinks below an ....

....or stress (cf. Reynolds and Jones 1978) context system situation 1 positive incongruity negative incongruity complexity CC situation 2 CC memory 1 MC learning Figure 4 The difference between the complexity of the mental model and the complexity of the context is called incongruity. Hunt (1963) designated the amount of increased complexity as incongruity . We shift the semantic and theoretic problems from incongruity to complexity. Doing this, we can define in 60 Information System Conpcepts congruity in a more precise way. Incongruity (I) is the difference of contextual (CC) and ....

....AND INFORMATION Weizscker (1974) differentiated the concept of information into two aspects: 1) Singularity of the first time , and (2) confirmation and redundancy . For both aspects we can find two different research traditions in psychology: 1) novelty and curiosity (Berlyne 1960, Hunt 1963, Voss and Keller 1981) and (2) dissonance theory (Festinger 1957, Irle 1975, Frey 1981) Both research tracks are only loose coupled till today. A context with sensory deprivation has not enough positive incongruity or even negative incongruity. On one side, a human will leave a context with ....

About the Relationship between Incongruity, Complexity and.. - Rauterberg   (Correct)

....In situations, which are characterized by sensory deprivation, humans are intrinsically looking for stimulation. They increase the complexity of the context or the per 127 ception of it. On the other side, humans try to avoid situations with a high amount of stimulation, dissonance, or stress. Hunt (1963) designated this amount of increased complexity as incongruity . If the complexity of the mental model MC is less complex than the complexity of the context CC, then humans try to optimise this positive incongruity. Seeking and explorative behaviour starts, when the positive incongruity sinks ....

Human Information Processing in Man-Machine Interaction. - Rauterberg (1995)   (Correct)

....2 . ACTIVITY AND INCONGRUITY Weizscker [21] differentiated the concept of information into two dimensions: 1. Singularity of the first time , and (2. confirmation and redundancy. For both aspects we can find two different research traditions in psychology: 1) novelty and curiosity ( 4] [9], 20] and (2) dissonance theory ( 7] Both research tracks are only loose coupled till today. Investigators of novelty assume, that living systems (like mammals, especially humans) are motivated by an information seeking behavior. In situations, which are characterized by sensory deprivation, ....

....which are characterized by sensory deprivation, mammals and humans are intrinsically looking for stimulation. They increase the complexity of the context or the perception of it. On the other side, mammals try to avoid situations with a high amount of stimulation, dissonance, or stress. Hunt [9] designated this amount of increased complexity as incongruity . Incongruity is the difference between the complexity of the context and the complexity of the active and learning system (see Figure 1) If the complexity of the mental model is less complex than the complexity of the context, then ....
