The hierarchical organization of skill has theoretically been thought to be developed through chunking (Newell & Rosenbloom, 1981).
Further, research suggests that higher-order cognitive processing skills may indeed not be as hierarchical as lower-order skills (Crowe et al., 2008).
The occupations specified in the questionnaire were largely drawn from the International Standard Classification of Occupations, a framework that enables jobs to be arranged into a hierarchical system according to the skill level and skill specialization required to carry out the tasks and duties of occupations.
This model for training cognitive skills is hierarchical, and the programs are designed to specifically target one or more specific cognitive skill.
The neurocognitive architecture proposed in this paper addresses the problem of learning and execution of hierarchical behaviors and complex skills.
Critical thinking was defined in the framework of Bloom's taxonomy (as Bloom levels 3 6: application, analysis, evaluation, and synthesis), because this hierarchical model of thinking skills creates specific expectations for practice and assessment at each thinking level (see also Simkin and Kuechler, 2005; Crowe et al., 2008).
In this paper, we review Icarus, a cognitive architecture that utilizes hierarchical skills and concepts for reactive execution in physical environments.

Paper: "See, feel, act: Hierarchical learning for complex manipulation skills with multisensory fusion".
The designer specifies a collection of skills, represented as hierarchical tasks networks, whose primitives are sensory-motor functions.
