      LazyWeb: Please help our reading group find papers on cognitive science perspectives on abstraction. Primary interest is in programming, but abstraction in math would also be welcome. Less so physical science, even less farther afield, though of course classics are welcome.

      My favorites: Pennington, “Stimulus Structures and Mental Representations in Expert Comprehension of Computer Programs.” Letovsky, “Cognitive Processes in Program Comprehension.” Anderson, Farrell, and Sauers, “Learning to Program in LISP.”

          Pennington paper is creative experimental work on using chunks to identify whether programmers mentally represent programs as data-flow, control-flow, etc. Letovsky paper uses careful analysis of protocols w/ experts to characterize bottom-up vs. top-down reasoning & schemata.

          Replying to @wcrichton @ShriramKMurthi and

          Anderson et al. builds a production system to mirror protocols of novices learning Lisp. Early cognitive tutor work. Useful to think about how to model complex mental processes like reasoning by analogy.
