The LICAI Model
The LInked model
of Comprehension-based Action planning and Instruction
taking
[li kai]
LICAI is a model that simulates performing tasks by exploration
where the tasks are given to the user in the form of written exercises
that contain no information about the correct action sequences
(Kitajima and Polson, 1997). LICAI's comprehension processes and
the action planning processes (Kitajima and Polson, 1995) are
based on Kintsch's (1988) construction-integration theory for
text comprehension. The model comprehends the instructions and
generates goals which are then stored in episodic memory (Kintsch
and Welsch, 1991). The action planning process is controlled by
goals retrieved from memory cued by displays generated by the
application.
The model assumes that the instruction comprehension is a strategic
process; instruction texts must be elaborated using specialized
strategies that guide generation of goals. Representations of
goals that lead to correct actions are restricted by the construction-integration
architecture. The model predicts that successful exploration requires
perfect matching of goal representation and the label on the correct
object.
Extension to LICAI
A new model, CoLiDeS, simulating users Web navigation, has been developed as an extension of LICAI.
