Map Structure

The main prerequisite knowledge nodes derived from the initial study question form the primary knowledge areas of the map.

Knowledge Structure

The knowledge structure in this case represents an area of knowledge and all of its prerequisite knowledge. That is the knowledge a human expert would know if they knew the knowledge in question. The primary knowledge areas of a Knowledge Structure Map are those derived directly from the question which qualifies the map.

The Primary Knowledge Areas of The Concept of Justice are:
