N2  - This paper looks at the three main information processing models from the point of view
of researchers in confidential human factors databases. It explores conceptual problems
with two of these information processing models, and goes on to explore possible
advantages of adopting a ?connectionist? paradigm. Links between connectionism and
?situated cognition? are demonstrated. Practical work carried out using a
connectionist/situated cognition model is described, and the way in which the
?situatedness? of discourse can influence the kind of data that can be collected is
discussed. Finally it is argued that more emphasis should be placed in ergonomics on
sociation, situatedness and embodiment, and that this might help to deal with problems
faced in creation and interrogating databases: especially as regards the creation of
coherent and reliable ?coding taxonomies?.
