Skills-rules-knowledge

An influential classification of the different types of information processing involved in industrial tasks was developed by J. Rasmussen of the Rise Laboratory in Denmark. This scheme provides a useful framework for identifying the types of error likely to occur in different operational situations, or within different aspects of the same task where different types of information processing demands on the individual may occur. The classification system, known as the skill-, rule-, knowledge-based (SRK) approach is described in a... 

The Skills-Rules-Knowledge (S-R-K) model has been proposed as a framework for classifying human performance. It divides mental processes in plant operation into three performance levels ...

The related conceptual model is known as the SRK (Skill-Rule-Knowledge) model.
