Abstract

Mental models play a crucial role in individual and organizational learning. The adaptive mental processes involved in the development of mental models are addressed here by integrating psychological and neurological theories on mental models and the learning involved. An adaptive network model has been designed for these processes and used for simulations addressing a case study of learning to drive a car. The developed model may be valuable for different ends, like in improving individual and organizational learning, in designing virtual pedagogical agents, enhancing driver safety, and self-car-driving systems.
