Complex Problem Solving Beyond the Psychometric Approach
decision-making (DOM) and complex dynamic control (CDC) represent
multifaceted psychological phenomena. In a broad sense, CPS
encompasses learning, decision-making, and acting in complex and dynamic
situations. Moreover, solutions to problems that people face in such
situations are often generated in teams or groups. This adds another layer of
complexity to the situation itself because of the emerging issues that arise
from the social dynamics of group interactions. This framing of CPS means
that it is not a single construct that can be measured by using a particular
type of CPS task (e.g. minimal complex system tests), which is a view taken
by the psychometric community. The proposed approach taken here is that
because CPS is multifaceted, multiple approaches need to be taken to fully
capture and understand what it is and how the different cognitive processes
associated with it complement each other.
Thus, this Research Topic is aimed at showcasing the latest work in the
fields of CPS, as well as DOM and CDC that takes a holist approach to
investigating and theorizing about these abilities. The collection of articles
encompasses conceptual approaches as well as experimental and
correlational studies involving established or new tools to examine CPS,
DOM and CDC. This work contributes to answering questions about what
strategies and what general knowledge can be transferred from one type of
complex and dynamic situation to another, what learning conditions result in transferable knowledge and skills, and how these features can be trained.
