Knowledge is commonly socially constructed, through collaborative efforts towards shared objectives or by dialogues and challenges brought about by different persons' perspectives.

Crosby, M. E. and Nordbotten, J. C. (1995): Graphic Data Model Perception. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 238-242.

This paper describes an experiment in reading graphic data models which differ in graphic style. Computer science students participated in an experiment to determine if graphic style influences data model comprehension. Models with embedded graphic symbols, graphically separated symbols, or list structures were used. Protocol data, which consisted of verbal reports and eye-movements, was collected. Detailed analysis of this data provided insight into how students viewed the four types of data models. Results from this study suggest that the graphic style of the model effects the ease with which they are read and understood.

Howard, D. L. and Crosby, M. E. (1993): Snapshots from the Eye: Toward Strategies for Viewing Bibliographic Citations. In: Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 1993. pp. 488-493.

The objective of this project was to discover and describe how people view computer displayed textual information. In particular, individual viewing strategies for bibliographic citations were studied. Analysis of eye movements and fixations illuminated actual behavior. Two conditions were studied: viewing of relevant and not relevant material. Behavior in viewing differed between conditions. Viewing time for the relevant condition was longer. Movement between content areas displayed different patterns for the two conditions as did percentages of direction of movement between individual fixations. It appeared that subjects treated relevant material sequentially but that not relevant was treated non-linearly.
