Annotation

This article tests two hypotheses about knowledge representations: (1) newly learned bodies of knowledge consist of (a) the presented information and (b) what the learner thinks about it. (2) bodies of knowledge learned from experience feature specific subrepresentations which correspond to the knowledge network principal components. The results supported the hypotheses.
