M.Com. (Human Resource Management) / In this study the changing role of artisans was analysed from a behavioural scientific and more specifically, from a psychological point of view. Because of the fact that cognitive psychology has become increasingly dominant in psychological research during the past decade, it was decided to approach the study within a cognitive psychological framework. The fact that "man as information processor is seen as a primary approach within cognitive psychology was the reason for examining the changing role of artisans in terms of their information processing activities - thus also their cognitive style. Because the dynamic working environment and technological changes are placing new intellectual demands on artisans it was decided to analyse the changing role of artisans in terms of their information processing structures and activities.
