Distributed Cognition: Toward a New Foundation for Human-Computer Interaction Research
- ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction
, 2000
"... We are quickly passing through the historical moment when people work in front of a single computer, dominated by a small CRT and focused on tasks involving only local information. Networked computers are becoming ubiquitous and are playing increasingly significant roles in our lives and in the basi ..."

of information and computer-mediated interactions. We think the theory of distributed cognition has a special role to play in understanding interactions between people and technologies, for its focus has always been on whole environments: what we really do in them and how we coordinate our activity in them
Representations in distributed cognitive tasks

In this paper we propose a theoretical framework of distributed representations and a methodology of representational analysis for the study of distributed cognitive tasksÑtasks that require the processing of information distributed across the internal mind and the external environment. The basic pr ..."

The Skill Content of Recent Technological Change: An Empirical Exploration
, 2000
"... Recent empirical and case study evidence documents a strong association between the adoption of computers and increased use of college educated or non-production workers. With few exceptions, the conceptual link explaining how computer technology complements skilled labor or substitutes for unskille ..."

Here, we are concerned to question this boundary from a perspective within the cognitive sciences based on the notion of distributed cognition. We first present two of many contemporary sour ..."

Mediation in experimental and nonexperimental studies: new procedures and recommendations
- PSYCHOLOGICAL METHODS
, 2002
"... Mediation is said to occur when a causal effect of some variable X on an outcome Y is explained by some intervening variable M. The authors recommend that with small to moderate samples, bootstrap methods (B. Efron & R. Tibshirani, 1993) be used to assess mediation. Bootstrap tests are powerful ..."

because they detect that the sampling distribution of the mediated effect is skewed away from 0. They argue that R. M. Baron and D. A. Kenny’s (1986) recommendation of first testing the X → Y association for statistical significance should not be a requirement when there is a priori belief that the effect

Distributed cognition without distributed knowing

In earlier works (2002, 2006), I have argued that it is useful to think of much scientific activity, particularly in experimental sciences, as involving the operation of distributed cognitive systems, since these are understood in the contemporary cognitive sciences. Introducing a notion of distribu ..."

, 1998
"... In this paper we argue that the predominant models of Situation Awareness (SA) are inadequate for the study of systems operated by teams. The reason for this is that these models are based on mentalistic assumptions focusing almost exclusively on individuals. We suggest that, to study the control of ..."

of dynamic systems, it is necessary to shift the unit of analysis from the individual to the whole cognitive system comprising a team of people as well as the artefacts which they use. Thus, our vantage point is the theoretical framework of distributed cognition. Through two field studies we try
Autism and distributed cognition

Treatment and support for the person with autism is multidisciplinary and will often include the use of assistive technologies. This exploratory study aims to describe current practice in the support of people with autism and ..."
