Knowledge Space Theory
• Knowledge: solution behaviour
• Knowledge state: subset of problems a person is able to solve
• Knowledge space: set of all possible knowledge states
![Page 3: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Extensions of Knowledge Space Theory
Latent cognitive structures underlyingknowledge spaces
• Skills (Falmagne; Doignon; Düntsch & Gediga)
• Components and Attributes, Demand Analysis (Albert & Held)
• Cognitive Processes (Schrepp)• Competence-Performance Approach
(Korossy)

Basics
• Set S of skills that are necessary for answering certain problems.
• For each problem q Q there exists a subset f(q) S of skills that are sufficient for solving the problem.
![Page 5: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Skill function
• assign to each problem the skills required for solving this problem
• Competencies
= sets of skills sufficient to solve a problem

Problem function
• Set of skills (S)
• Set of problems (Q)
• assigns to each set of skills the set of problems, which can be solved in it

Knowledge State
• A subset K of problems is a knowledge state if and only if there is a subset M of skills such that K contains all those problems having at least one competency included in M and only those problems.
![Page 11: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Special cases
• disjunctive model:only one of the skills attached to a problem q suffices to solve this problem
• conjunctive model:all the skills assigned to a problem q are required for mastering this problem
![Page 12: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Extension:
competence structure on a set of skills
Competence-Performance Approach
![Page 13: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Performance: observable solution behaviour
• Competence:underlying construct explaining performance
Competence-Performance Approach
![Page 14: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Performance structure (A, P)
A ... finite, non-empty set of problems
P ... family of subsets of problems A
Competence-Performance Approach
![Page 15: Skills and Competencies Monika Pilgerstorfer 5 April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070410/5681462a550346895db337b0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Competence structure (E, K)
E ... finite, non-empty set of elementary competences
K ... family of subsets of elementary competences E
Competence-Performance Approach
