Professor Norman,
The survey is not intended to probe unconscious knowledge. The objective
for this survey is to get a sense about current design research practices
when it comes to unarticulated and latent knowledge. That said, I totally
agree that If my intention were to probe the unconscious knowledge of
researchers a survey would have been a contradiction.
Thanks for you comment and I'm looking forward for more feedback.
Have a great day,
Best,
