In two experiments, the relation between domain-specific problem-solving skills and Patterns of domain-knowledge was examined using two types of tasks from a command language. In the first study short sequences of commands of an operating system which differed in the degree of conventionality were briefly displayed to three groups of subjects (11 experts, 22 advanced users, 11 novices). The Ss. had to indicate whether a subsequently presented test-item was included in the text sequence. The main result was that the experts performed better in this recognition task with both familiar and unfamiliar sequences. In the second experiment, a subject-paced-reading technique was used for displaying the short texts of commands. The experts again showed better performance with familiar and unfamiliar but correct sequences. However, all three Ss. groups performed equally with unfamiliar, incorrect sequences. The results are discussed with regard to the acquisition of domain-specific skills.
