Interacting with limited mobility resources: Psychological range levels in electric vehicle use (2013, background): “Operators have been found to experience difficulties performing similar control tasks in equally complex dynamic environments (Frensch and Funke, 1995; Osman, 2010).”
The role of emotions in complex problem solving (2005, neutral): “Complex problemsolving (CPS) is often contrasted with simple cognitive tasks along five criteria (Frensch & Funke, 1995; Funke, 2001): (1) complexity of the situation; (2) connectivity of variables; (3) dynamic development of the situation; (4) intransparency or opaqueness; and (5) polytely (pursue…”
Inductive reasoning, domain specific and complex problem solving: Relations and development (2013, background): “To this end, a consistent research finding is that problem solving depends on domain-specific knowledge and strategies (e.g. Mayer, 1992; Funke & Frensch, 2007); however, problem solving skills also involve the ability to acquire and to use new knowledge, or to use pre-existing knowledge to solve…”
Rapid trial-and-error learning with simulation supports flexible tool use and physical reasoning (2019, background): “To rapidly solve these problems requires good prior knowledge of the dynamics—unlike complex problem solving in which the dynamics are learned in an evolving situation (26)—and further iteration once a promising solution is considered—unlike the “aha” moment that leads immediately to a solution in i”
Milieus of Creativity: The Role of Places, Environments, and Spatial Contexts (2009, background): ““Complex problem solving implies the efficient interaction between a solver and the situational requirements of the task and involves a solver’s cognitive, emotional, personal, and social abilities and knowledge” (Frensch & Funke, 1995, p. 18).”
Experiencing Range in an Electric Vehicle: Understanding Psychological Barriers (2012, background): “Operators have been found to experience difficulties in such complex problem solving or control task situations (Frensch & Funke, 1995).”
Complex problem solving: a case for complex cognition? (2010, methodology): “A shortcoming of CPS research (as it was introduced by Dörner in the 1970s) is its ''one-item-testing'' (Funke and Frensch 2007).”
Cross-National Comparisons of Complex Problem-Solving Strategies in Two Microworlds (2009, background): “Complex problem solving can be defined as thinking that aims to overcome barriers and to reach goals in situations that are complex, dynamic, and nontransparent (Dörner, 1996; Frensch & Funke, 1995; Quesada, Kintsch, & Gomez, 2005).”
