| Abstract: |
In order for information to be stored and processed in a
computer, it must be reduced to data and organized and
systematized in accordance with the rules and principles of
formal logic. Reducing manifold reality to data for use by the
computer results in loss of information because an arbitrary
screening of data eliminates that gathered by the uniquely
human modes of cognition (kinetic, emotive, and symbolic). For
this reason, it is argued, it is not surprising that women are
most skeptical of new information technology. The development
in women--to a greater degree than in men--of kinetic,
emotive, and symbolic modes of knowing has been the product of
socialization and the division of labor in society, and is in
opposition to the principles embodied in information
technology. It is argued that the closing out of these modes
of cognition resulting from the reduction of holistic
experience to data is a limitation of artificial intelligence
and cognitive science, and that an effort to achieve holism
should be promoted. (GL) |
