| Tiivistelmä: | This paper develops and tests a model of the relationship between information acquisition and learning in the executive support systems (ESS) context, using cognitive learning perspective. Two types of learning are proposed: mental model building in which mental models are changed to accommodate new information, and mental model maintenance in which new information fits into existing mental models and confirms them. The paper also proposes that information acquisition objectives determine the type of learning that is possible. The results support that mental model building is more likely with scanning than with focused search. |
