An examination of procedural and object-oriented systems analysis methods: does prior experience help or hinder performance?

Article Abstract:

An experimental investigation was conducted to analyze both experienced and novice systems analysts utilizing both procedural and object-oriented methods. A human problem-solving model based on Newell and Simon was used as the theoretical basis for the study. Findings showed that both novice and experienced systems analysts have higher subjective mental workload when using object-oriented analysis. Also, novices prefer object-oriented methods and find these techniques easier compared to experienced analysts.
