The processes of technological innovation involve big challenges for the different disciplines interested in work issues, taking into account the impacts that the above mentioned processes carry, among others: on a cultural level, in terms of the diversity of the socio-cultural contexts where these technologies are transferred. From a cognitive point of view, such innovations involve changes in the content of the tasks, in the mechanisms of appropriation of technical objects, and in the modification of schemes of utilization of the appliances.This study specifically addresses the impact produced by the introduction of electronics in the components of the car, on the work of operators trained in "traditional mechanics ", focusing on the processes of appropriation of new techniques for diagnosing faults in vehicles. In particular, this paper focuses on the activity of maintenance operators and independent car repair workshops, organizations that are outside the official circuit of car dealerships and therefore not dependent on the manufacturers for the provision of technical devices (scanners, oscilloscopes and manuals).The information collected shows that the previous systemic reasoning, of the operators, turns out to be an invariant that allows them to appropriate the changes introduced by technological innovations in fault diagnosis tasks, in the task of diagnosis of faults allowing to compensate the deficits that reveal "a technological poorly adjusted transfer”. |
