Detailed explanation-1: -Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT) is a cognitive and memory theory.
Detailed explanation-2: -The ACT theory suggests that we process information in cognitive units in our working memory, which distinguishes between declarative and procedural knowledge. The theory also suggests that our working memory can only handle a certain number of cognitive units (5) at a time before becoming overloaded.
Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. ACT (Adaptive Control of Thought) is a cognitive architecture based on the assumption of a unified theory of mind. The goal of this cognitive theory is to explain how human cognition works and what the structures and processes of human memory, thinking, problem solving, and language are.
Detailed explanation-4: -ACT-R distinguishes among three types of memory structures: declarative, procedural and working memory. Declarative memory takes the form of a semantic net linking propositions, images, and sequences by associations.
Detailed explanation-5: -(G3) What does ACT-R stand for? ACT-R’s official name is an acronym for “Adaptive Character of Thought-Rational” (Anderson et al., 2004), which is based upon the ACT theory (Anderson, 1976).
