Epistemics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Epistemics is a term coined in 1969 by Edinburgh University with the foundation of its School of Epistemics. It is to be distinguished from Epistemology in that this is the philosophical theory of knowledge, whereas epistemics signifies the scientific study of knowledge. Epistemics is also compared to Cognitive Science.
Christopher Longuet-Higgins has defined it as "the construction of formal models of the processes - perceptual, intellectual, and linguistic - by which knowledge and understanding are achieved and communicated".
