T-shaped knowledge: a cognitive architecture model where individuals develop deep expertise in one primary domain (vertical stroke) while maintaining broad awareness across related areas (horizontal stroke), enabling both specialized signal detection and cross-domain application
Why This Is a Definition
This definition clearly establishes the precise semantic boundary of 'T-shaped knowledge' by identifying its genus (cognitive architecture model) and differentia (deep expertise in one domain + broad awareness in related areas). It explains the functional relationship between the two components and their role in signal detection and application.
