Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to predict, on the basis of logical analysis of its semantic properties, what cognitive competences a diagrammatic system has, and to verify, on the basis of psychological experimentation, how those competences affect the actual processes of human reasoning. In particular, we have applied this integrated method to the systems of iconic tables, and analyzed the expression and comprehension of abstract information based on the visual properties of the row and column level, as well as the automatic expression and comprehension of logical consequences based on incremental expression of information to tabular representations.
