Analyzing CAD competence with univariate and multivariate learning curve models

Hamade, Ramsey F. ; Jaber, Mohamed Y. and Sikström, Sverker LU orcid (2009) In Computers & Industrial Engineering 56(4). p.1510-1518
Abstract
Understanding how learning occurs, and what improves or impedes the learning process is of importance to academicians and practitioners; however, empirical research on validating learning curves is sparse. This paper contributes to this line of research by collecting and analyzing CAD (computer-aided design) procedural and cognitive performance data for novice trainees during 16-weeks of training. The declarative performance is measured by time, and the procedural performance by the number of features used to construct a design part. These data were analyzed using declarative or procedural performance separately as predictors (univariate), or a combination of declarative or procedural predictors (multivariate). Furthermore, a method to... (More)
