Abstract
This paper presents the modelling technique of deterministic finite automata (DFA) of the procedure for controlling variables by solvers of different ages and educational backgrounds when solving a proportionality problem in a situation of constant rectilinear motion. The study is framed within the context of research aimed at characterizing cognitive change when solving proportionality tasks posed through interactive software. To demonstrate the potential of the DFA technique, the analysis of 2 cases is documented, regarding the frequency of transition towards different forms of using control variables.
