Abstract: (CIT): What factors enable people to develop and maintain expert performance across the life-span? Dr. Charness will present a framework for understanding expertise development and apply it to the domain of chess skill. He draws on analyses of skill trajectories from archival data sets of high-level performers, practice data from questionnaire studies of players in Europe and North America, experimental studies of early perceptual processes, and simulation studies using neural nets to examine age-knowledge trade-offs relevant to chess and other expert skills.
