Originally, the notion of case was that of a 'problem-solving episode', based on the cognitive science distinction between semantic and episodic memory.
Rather than being innate, problem-solving modes are learned and acquired with experience.
In addition to treatment outcome, the trial sought to determine possible mechanisms of action of the problem-solving intervention.
Two potential mechanisms of action of problem-solving treatment were evaluated by comparison with drug treatment.
It is not news that cooperating problem-solving systems (whether human or automated) must speak a common language and interpret the language similarly.
The framework directive was the product of problem-solving negotiation; in the packaging waste directive, entrenched bargaining positions led to an abortive transfer.
Therefore, this learning and problem-solving strategy guarantees selective advantage in environments that require fast adaptation.
A way was needed to separate out operational knowledge, that is, problem-solving methods, from the domain knowledge upon which the problem-solving methods operate.
