Stephen Man-Kit Lee; Nicole Sin Hang Law; Shelley Xiuli Tong – Cognitive Science, 2024
Statistical learning enables humans to involuntarily process and utilize different kinds of patterns from the environment. However, the cognitive mechanisms underlying the simultaneous acquisition of multiple regularities from different perceptual modalities remain unclear. A novel multidimensional serial reaction time task was developed to test…

Jack Dempsey; Anna Tsiola; Kiel Christianson – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2023
Many psycholinguistic studies examine how people parse sentences in isolation; however, years of work in discourse processing have shown that sentence-level interpretations are influenced at some stage by discourse-level information. Evidence over the past 20 years remains mixed as to the temporal dynamics of such top-down interactions. In…

Rey, Arnaud; Fagot, Joël; Mathy, Fabien; Lazartigues, Laura; Tosatto, Laure; Bonafos, Guillem; Freyermuth, Jean-Marc; Lavigne, Frédéric – Cognitive Science, 2022
The extraction of cooccurrences between two events, A and B, is a central learning mechanism shared by all species capable of associative learning. Formally, the cooccurrence of events A and B appearing in a sequence is measured by the transitional probability (TP) between these events, and it corresponds to the probability of the second stimulus…

Fabian Tomaschek; Michael Ramscar; Jessie S. Nixon – Cognitive Science, 2024
Sequence learning is fundamental to a wide range of cognitive functions. Explaining how sequences--and the relations between the elements they comprise--are learned is a fundamental challenge to cognitive science. However, although hundreds of articles addressing this question are published each year, the actual learning mechanisms involved in the…

Wang, Felix Hao; Kaiser, Elsi – Language Learning, 2022
Although syntactic priming has been well studied and is commonly assumed to involve implicit learning, the mechanisms behind this phenomenon are still under debate. Recent studies have suggested that exposure to nonlinguistic statistical patterns may influence language users' relative clause attachment biases, but whether the priming effect comes…

West, Gillian; Melby-Lervåg, Monica; Hulme, Charles – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Impaired procedural learning has been suggested as a possible cause of developmental dyslexia (DD) and developmental language disorder (DLD). We evaluate this theory by performing a series of meta-analyses on evidence from the six procedural learning tasks that have most commonly been used to test this theory: the serial reaction time, Hebb…

Mak, Matthew H. C.; Hsiao, Yaling; Nation, Kate – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
In six experiments, we tested whether immediate serial recall is influenced by a word's degree centrality, an index of lexical connectivity. Words of high degree centrality are associated with more words in free association norms than those of low degree centrality. Experiment 1 analyzed secondary data to explore the effect of degree centrality in…

Sheng-Yi Wu; Kuay-Keng Yang – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background and purpose: Most studies have agreed on the benefits of students' participation in discussing socio-scientific issues (SSIs), but few have focused on the serial behaviors through which students declare their positions. Design and method: This study analyzed the serial behaviors of university students when participating in the…

Larson, Caroline; Weismer, Susan Ellis – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study examined working memory in children with developmental language disorder (DLD). The overarching goal of this work was to integrate three primary processing-based hypotheses of DLD, (a) limited verbal working memory, (b) slowed processing speed, and (c) inefficient inhibition of interference, by using the…

Lage, Guilherme M.; Faria, Larissa O.; Ambrósio, Natália F. A.; Borges, Athos M. P.; Apolinário-Souza, Tércio – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
For over 40 years, the contextual interference effect in motor learning has been investigated. While the difference between levels of contextual interference experienced under blocked and random practice are well established, the difference in the levels of contextual interference experienced under serial and random practice is still ambiguous.…

Carl Christopher Haynes-Magyar – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Novice programmers need well-designed instruction and assessment informed by research and critical perspectives to conquer the historical challenges associated with completing introductory computer programming courses successfully. These issues include high dropout and failure rates, the struggle to acquire and retain basic programming knowledge,…

Kao, Tina; Jensen, Greg; Michaelcheck, Charlotte; Ferrera, Vincent P.; Terrace, Herbert S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Does serial learning result in specific associations between pairs of items, or does it result in a cognitive map based on relations of all items? In 2 experiments, we trained human participants to learn various lists of photographic images. We then tested the participants on new lists of photographic images. These new lists were constructed by…

Vertolli, Michael O.; Kelly, Matthew A.; Davies, Jim – Cognitive Science, 2018
An incoherent visualization is when aspects of different senses of a word (e.g., the biological "mouse" vs. the computer "mouse") are present in the same visualization (e.g., a visualization of a biological mouse in the same image with a computer tower). We describe and implement a new model of creating contextual coherence in…

Smedley, Elizabeth B.; Smith, Kyle S. – Learning & Memory, 2018
Sign-tracking is a form of autoshaping where animals develop conditioned responding directed toward stimuli predictive of an outcome even though the outcome is not contingent on the animal's behavior. Sign-tracking behaviors are thought to arise out of the attribution of incentive salience (i.e., motivational value) to reward-predictive cues. It…

Lindsey, Dakota R. B.; Logan, Gordon D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Associations are formed among the items in a sequence over the course of learning, but these item-to-item associations are not sufficient to reproduce the order of the sequence (Lashley, 1951). Contemporary theories of serial order tend to omit these associations entirely. The current paper investigates whether item-to-item associations play a…
