Logical types and ostensive insight.

Discrimination of analogic and digital modes in communication allows clearer distinction of transference (mutative) and extra-transference interpretation. Relying on explicit formulation, Strachey introduces 'implicit' mutative interpretation, which is explicitly extra-transferential but transferential as to process. Each interpretive verbalization has an analogic impact pertaining to the analogic unconscious level of archaic objects, and its emitter--the analyst--is its propositional subject. Interpretation can afford to be as explicit as possible inasmuch as it retains the metalevel in which the analyst can remain as third-party to what he formulates, but it must be gradual in making explicit the archaic object he actualizes. It is by 'withholding'--as Strachey says--the validation of the archaic relational analogic 'psychic reality' that is the referent of interpretive 'mapping', and not be verbal 'mapping' in itself, that the 'judgement of reality' underlying ostensive insight comes into play.

Composing user models through logic analysis.

The evaluation of tutorial strategies, interface designs, and courseware content is an area of active research in the medical education community. Many of the evaluation techniques that have been developed (e.g., program instrumentation), commonly produce data that are difficult to decipher or to interpret effectively. We have explored the use of decision tables to automatically simplify and categorize data for the composition of user models--descriptions of student's learning styles and preferences. An approach to user modeling that is based on decision tables has numerous advantages compared with traditional manual techniques or methods that rely on rule-based expert systems or neural networks. Decision tables provide a mechanism whereby overwhelming quantities of data can be condensed into an easily interpreted and manipulated form. Compared with conventional rule-based expert systems, decision tables are more amenable to modification. Unlike classification systems based on neural networks, the entries in decision tables are readily available for inspection and manipulation. Decision tables, descriptions of observations of behavior, also provide automatic checks for ambiguity in the tracking data.

[Course work as means of developing logical thinking in the instruction of medical students].

The carrying out of course assignments by medical students at the chair of social hygiene and public health administration is proposed for the wide application as a means of promoting the development of creative thinking in students. The course assignments fulfilled on the basis of data on regional peculiarities, characteristics of the population's health and health services while approximating students to the real practical activity promote the development of skills in the analysis, synthesis, generalization, concretization and other intellectual abilities absolutely indispensable for the future doctors.
