โฆ Synopsis
The purpose, procedures and issues involved in the development of a task taxonomy were reviewed. A consequence of that review was the development of a set of criteria by which specific task taxonomies can be evaluated and contrasted. Additionally, four general and five specific task taxonomies were reviewed. The specific task taxonomies were evaluated and contrasted using the proposed criteria. From that analysis, it was concluded that future taxonomic efforts must re-evaluate the relative importance of taxonomic development versus the integration of empirical data into a useful, predictive tool.
