Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...
Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving01:13

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

The principle of virtual work is an essential concept in the field of mechanics and engineering. This is used to solve problems related to the equilibrium of a structure or system. It is based on the assumption that if a system is in equilibrium, the work done by all the forces during a virtual displacement is zero. This principle is applied by considering virtual displacements of the system and the corresponding work done by internal and external forces.
To apply the principle of virtual work,...
Metacognition01:26

Metacognition

Metacognition is a conscious process where individuals are aware of their cognitive and executive processes, such as planning before solving a problem or self-monitoring during reading. For instance, a writer may need help with composing a piece. The situation involves a writer who is working on a piece of writing, but while doing so, they realize that something is missing. They notice that their characters lack depth or details. This realization occurs because the writer is reflecting on their...
Social Exchange Theory01:26

Social Exchange Theory

As formulated by John Thibaut and Harold Kelley, Social Exchange Theory explains human relationships as economic-like exchanges that maximize rewards and minimize costs. This theory suggests that individuals engage in relationships to gain benefits and reduce burdens, similar to economic transactions. It has been widely applied to various types of relationships, including romantic, professional, and social interactions.Rewards and Costs in RelationshipsRelationship rewards include emotional...
Social Exchange Theory02:06

Social Exchange Theory

We have discussed why we form relationships, what attracts us to others, and different types of love. But what determines whether we are satisfied with and stay in a relationship? One theory that provides an explanation is social exchange theory. According to social exchange theory, we act as naïve economists in keeping a tally of the ratio of costs and benefits of forming and maintaining a relationship with others (Rusbult & Van Lange, 2003).
The Scientific Method in Nursing Process01:18

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be safely...

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Knowledge Management
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Limited clear descriptions of knowledge transfer (KT) interventions and their processes hinder evaluation.
  • Lack of structured models for KT strategies impedes effective implementation and assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a detailed description of the processes involved in a knowledge transfer intervention.
  • To develop and refine a robust model of the knowledge transfer process for planning and evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • A sociological approach was employed, involving a literature review for a theoretical framework.
  • Fieldwork in a mental health setting utilized a knowledge brokering intervention.
  • Observations and interviews were used to generate narratives of the brokering process for model refinement.

Main Results:

  • The study articulates broad components of the knowledge transfer process.
  • Evidence from case study sites will be used to test and refine these components.
  • A refined framework for planning and evaluating KT interventions will be generated.

Conclusions:

  • This research offers a detailed account of a knowledge transfer intervention and its processes.
  • The developed model will enhance the understanding and application of knowledge transfer.
  • The findings contribute significantly to the body of knowledge on effective knowledge transfer strategies.
