Human digital twins and cognitive mimetic
2021
Digital twins – digital models of technical systems and processes – have recently been introduced to work with complex industrial processes. Yet should such models concern only physical objects (as definitions of them often imply), or should users and other human beings also be included? Models that include people have been called human digital twins (HDTs); they facilitate more accurate analyses of technologies in practical use. The cognitive mimetic approach can be used to describe human interactions with technologies. This approach analyses human information processes such as perceiving and thinking to mimic how people process information in order to design intelligent technologies. The …
The effect of explicit knowledge on sequence learning: A graded account
2004
In this paper, we study the effect of conscious knowledge on implicit sequence learning. To do so, in three sequence learning experiments, we manipulated (1) the extent to which instructions were intentional vs. incidental - intentional participants were informed of the existence of sequential regularities, and (2) the amount of explicit knowledge given to participants about the stimulus material. Results indicated that explicit knowledge improves sequence learning, as indexed by an increase in reaction times when the training sequence is unexpectedly replaced by another one. To enable us to differentiate between implicit and explicit learning, we applied the process dissociation procedure …
Challenge of tacit knowledge in acquiring information in cognitive mimetics
2019
Intelligent technologies are rising. This is why methods for designing them are important. One approach is to study how people process information in carrying out intelligence demanding tasks and use this information in designing new technology solutions. This approach can be called cognitive mimetics. A problem in mimetics is to explicate tacit or subconscious knowledge. Here, we study a combination of thinking aloud in ship simulator driving and focus group commenting the solutions of subjects. On the ground of these early experiments, a multiple method combination seems to be the best way forward to solve problems of tacit or subconscious knowledge. peerReviewed
The influence of institutions development in venture creation decision: A cognitive view
2016
Abstract This study seeks to provide new evidence on the way men and women process information in venture creation decision (VCD) and on the differences that may arise when taking this decision depending on the level of development of countries and their institutions. To reach this objective, this study carries out an experiment and identifies 120,536 people from 25 countries. Results indicate that institutions are necessary but not sufficient to achieve quality entrepreneurship, and that information processing is different between men and women, because women, regardless of the level of institutional development, process information similarly, whereas men do not.
Gender matters in venture creation decision
2016
Abstract This study provides new evidences on the way men and women process the information in venture creation decision (VCD) and the differences that may arise when taking this decision. To reach this objective, this study carries out an experiment and identifies 120,536 people from twenty-five countries with different levels of development. The main finding indicates that although men and women process information differently, new generations of women begin to process information like men do, which might indicate that efforts in gender equality policies may be working but are not yet sufficient.
Algorithms, artificial intelligence and automated decisions concerning workers and the risks of discrimination: the necessary collective governance o…
2019
Big data, algorithms and artificial intelligence now allow employers to process information on their employees and potential employees in a far more efficient manner and at a much lower cost than in the past. This makes it possible to profile workers automatically and even allows technology itself to replace human resources personnel in making decisions that have legal effects on employees (recruitment, promotion, dismissals, etc.). This entails great risks of worker discrimination and defencelessness, with workers unaware of the reasons underlying any such decision. This article analyses the protections established in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for safeguarding emplo…
Motivational configurations of cultural intelligence, social integration, and performance in global virtual teams
2021
Abstract Global virtual teams (GVTs), electronically connected workgroups of geographically dispersed team members in multinational settings, may suffer from less social integration. However, they may also benefit from an increased ability to process information due to a richer portfolio of ideas and problem-solving approaches that the team’s diversity provides. We propose that the cultural intelligence (CQ) of team members contributes positively to social integration in GVTs and improves performance. Using data from 263 GVTs, we utilized both structural equation modeling and necessary condition analyses to explore the associations between motivational CQ and a team’s social integration and…
