Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

219
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...

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

9.5K
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...

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

1.1K
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,...

Purposive Learning

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

The Scientific Method03:50

The Scientific Method

49.2K
Chemistry is an empirical science. Scientists often pose questions to understand the chemistry in everyday life and seek answers to these questions. To achieve this, scientists follow a definitive series of steps that together make up the Scientific Method. This approach involves making observations, asking questions, building a hypothesis, conducting experiments, analyzing results, and forming a conclusion.

Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development from Childhood into Adulthood

80
Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development emphasizes the role of thinking in a child's learning process, suggesting that children are naturally curious about their environment. His approach to development is discontinuous, proposing that cognitive abilities progress through distinct stages, each with unique characteristics. Central to Piaget's theory is schemata—mental structures that allow individuals to understand and interpret the world.

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Therapy
  • Professional Doctoral Education
  • Practice Scholarship

Background:

  • The increasing number of occupational therapy doctorate (OTD) programs necessitates a clear understanding of practice scholarship.
  • Traditional research models may not fully encompass the scholarly work of most OTD-prepared practitioners.
  • A need exists for a scholarship model tailored to the practical context of occupational therapy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose the Scholarship of Knowledge Discovery in Practice model.
  • To provide a framework for OTD students and practitioners to engage in scholarly work.
  • To emphasize the role of contextual factors in knowledge generation and application within practice.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptualization of a new scholarship model.
  • Focus on contextual factors influencing knowledge discovery and application.
  • Application in quality improvement, program development, and innovation.

Main Results:

  • The proposed model prioritizes knowledge discovery in addressing practice challenges.
  • It offers a viable approach for OTD students and practitioners to conduct scholarly work.
  • It highlights the importance of feasibility and sustainability in evidence integration.

Conclusions:

  • The Scholarship of Knowledge Discovery in Practice model is a suitable framework for OTD practitioners.
  • This model facilitates the generation and dissemination of practical knowledge.
  • Recognizing practice scholarship is vital for the advancement of the occupational therapy profession.
