摘要: This chapter will suggest that experiments carried out in thought are a valid and powerful tool for the construction of insight into behavior world. Thought (TEs) include five components, central which is visualization. We bounded yet structured visualization imaginary worlds, integrated with logical conceptual derivations from them, provide cognitive mechanism ‘knowing’. define kinds TE by analyzing well known historical science students’ TEs. structures these worlds based on kind ‘instinctive knowledge’ frequently tacit.
