Researchers have revealed that real expertise, while applied to
well-defined tasks with highly circumscribed contexts, often
stretches beyond its routine boundaries. For example, a medical
doctor may be called upon to diagnose a rare disease or perform
emergency surgery outside his or her area of specialization because
other experts are not available. Moreover, in some cases, the
context for expertise is in a constant state of flux, such that no
one case is identical. "Expertise Out of Context "is a culmination
of some of the most insightful studies conducted by researchers in
the fields of cognitive systems engineering and naturalistic
decision making in the effort to better understand expertise and
its development.
Born out of the Sixth International Conference on Naturalistic
Decision Making, a conference that gathers researchers who study
cognition, perception, and reasoning outside of the traditional
laboratory, this book is organized in five parts, the first of
which provides an overview of the topic and presents varied
perspectives. Consequent sections cover how to make sense of
things, tools for thinking out of context, how to cope with
uncertainty in a changing workplace, and teams operating out of
context.
As researchers in naturalistic decision making have investigated
such areas as the knowledge and decision-making skills of expert
firefighters, critical care nurses, military commanders, and
aircraft pilots, this volume is of importance to an expansive
audience, including individuals in business, government, industry,
and society at large.
