Knowledge - ANSWER The awareness and understanding of a set of information and
ways that information can be made useful to support a specific task or arrive at a decision;
abounds with others' thoughts and information. Information that is synthesized so that rela-
tionships are identified and formalized. Understanding that comes through a process of in-
teraction or experience with the world around us. Information that has judgment applied to
it or meaning extracted from it. Processed information that helps to clarify or explain some
portion of our environment or world that we can use as a basis for action or upon which we
can act. Internal process of thinking or cognition. External process of testing, senses, obser-
vation, and interacting.
Wisdom - ANSWER Knowledge applied in a practical way or translated into actions;
the use of knowledge and experience to heighten common sense and insight so as to exer-
cise sound judgment in practical matters. Sometimes thought of as the highest form of com-
mon sense, resulting from accumulated knowledge or erudition (deep, thorough learning) or
enlightenment (education that results in understanding and the dissemination of
knowledge). This is the ability to apply valuable and viable knowledge, experience, under-
standing, and insight while being prudent and sensible. It is focused on our own minds; it is
the synthesis of our experience, insight, understanding, and knowledge. This is the appropri-
ate use of knowledge to solve human problems. It is knowing when and how to apply
knowledge.
What are the differences between wisdom and knowledge: - ANSWER Knowledge
abounds with others' thoughts and information, whereas wisdom is focused on one's own
mind and the synthesis of experience, insight, understanding, and knowledge.
What is the foundation of the art of nursing? - ANSWER Wisdom
Cognitive Science - ANSWER Interdisciplinary field that studies the mind, intelligent,
and behavior from an information processing perspective.

, Computer Science - ANSWER Branch of engineering (application of science) that stud-
ies the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implantation and
application in computer systems. The study of storage/memory, conversion and transfor-
mation, and transfer or transmission of information in machines- that is, computers- through
both algorithms and practical implementation problems. Algorithms are detailed, unambigu-
ous action sequences in the design, efficiency, and application of computer systems,
whereas practical implementation problems deal with the software and hardware.
Cognitive Science - ANSWER This science is the study of the mind and how information
is processed in the mind.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) - ANSWER The field that deals with the conception, develop-
ment, and implementation of informations tools based on intelligent technologies. This filed
attempts to capture the complex processes of human thought and intelligence.
Experts in cognitive science model human thinking using artificial networks provided by
computers refer to this as ____________________
Information Science - ANSWER The science of information, studying the application
and usage of information and knowledge in organizations and the interfacings or interaction
between people, organizations, and information systems. An extensive, interdisciplinary sci-
ence that integrates features from cognitive science, communication science, computer sci-
ence, library science, and social sciences.
Information Science - ANSWER The application and usage of knowledge-- focus on
why and how technology can be put to best use to serve the information flow within an or-
ganization.
Healthcare organizations are affected by and rely on the evolution of this science to enhance
the recording and processing of routine and intimate information while facilitating human-
to-human and human-to-systems communications, delivery of healthcare products, dissemi-
nation of information, and enhancement of the organization's business transactions.
