Computational Thinking in K–12 (2013, methodology): “Aho (2012) simplified this further by defining CT as the thought processes involved in formulating problems so “their solutions can be represented as computational steps and algorithms” (p. 832).”
A Framework for Computational Thinking Based on a Systematic Research Review (2016, methodology): “…Thinking, 2015; Barr, Harrison and Conery, 2011; CSTA and ISTE, 2011; Gouws, Bradshaw, and Wentworth, 2013; Lu and Fletcher, 2009; NRC, 2010; Aho, 2012; Bers, 2010; Denning, 2009; Hudkins, 2013; Ioannidou, Bennett, Repenning, Koh and Basawapatna, 2011; Lye and Koh 2014; Marshall, 2011;…”
Computational thinking in compulsory education: Towards an agenda for research and practice (2015, background): “Aho (2012) further argued that CT involves Bthought processes involved in formulating problems so their solutions can be represented as computational steps and algorithms^ (p. 832). Denning (2009) argued CT has a long history in computer science dating back to 1950s when it was known as algorithmic ”

Which cognitive abilities underlie computational thinking? Criterion validity of the Computational Thinking Test (2017, background): “One year later, this definition is simplified by Aho, who conceptualizes CT as the thought processes involved in formulating problems so “their solutions can be represented as computational steps and algorithms” (Aho, 2012, p. 832).”
A validity and reliability study of the computational thinking scales (CTS) (2017, background): “Aho (2012) further argued that CT involves “thought processes involved in formulating problems so their solutions can be represented as computational steps and algorithms” (p. 832).”
