  When performing a task alone, humans achieve a certain level of performance.
When humans are assisted by a tool or automation to perform the same task,
performance is enhanced (augmented). Recently developed cognitive systems are
able to perform cognitive processing at or above the level of a human in some
domains. When humans work collaboratively with such cogs in a human/cog
ensemble, we expect augmentation of cognitive processing to be evident and
measurable. This paper shows the degree of cognitive augmentation depends on
the nature of the information the cog contributes to the ensemble. Results of
an experiment are reported showing conceptual information is the most effective
type of information resulting in increases in cognitive accuracy, cognitive
precision, and cognitive power.
