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…

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…

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…

Sarah Bichler; Michael Sailer; Elisabeth Bauer; Jan Kiesewetter; Hanna Härtl; Martin R. Fischer; Frank Fischer – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Teachers routinely observe and interpret student behavior to make judgements about whether and how to support their students' learning. Simulated cases can help pre-service teachers to gain this skill of diagnostic reasoning. With 118 pre-service teachers, we tested whether participants rate simulated cases presented in a serial-cue case format as…
