Rosa W. Runhardt – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
This article uses the interventionist theory of causation, a counterfactual theory taken from philosophy of science, to strengthen causal analysis in process tracing research. Causal claims from process tracing are re-expressed in terms of so-called hypothetical interventions, and concrete evidential tests are proposed which are shown to…

Tan, Michael; Koh, Teck Seng – Science Education, 2023
In considering goals for science education, it is conventional to make arguments for the utility of scientific knowledge for a variety of purposes. Less prominent are rationales based on the beauty or truth of science. In this paper, we examine how an approach to science education might be different if we shift the goals of communication to an…

Saraqini, Dea; Nesmith, Blake L.; Stear, Cassie; Rath, Hannah J.; Moore, Kara N. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
People have difficulty sighting missing persons, partially because the task requires people's limited cognitive resources. We examined whether empathy increases search behaviors and performance. We manipulated empathy felt toward a formerly (E1) and actively (E2) missing person. We measured willingness to volunteer to search for missing people in…

Lee, Hollylynne S.; Mojica, Gemma F.; Thrasher, Emily P.; Baumgartner, Peter – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2022
With a call for schools to infuse data across the curriculum, many are creating curricula and examining students' thinking in data-intensive problems. As the discipline of statistics education broadens to data science education, there is a need to examine how practices in data science can inform work in K-12. To better understand how to frame data…

Yi Shan Wong; Rachel Pye; Kai Li Chung – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2024
In existing studies of investigative interviewing, the effects of interviewing contexts have often been measured with little consideration of the reciprocal interviewee's stable characteristics. To clarify the factors and conditions under which adults are likely to retain accurate information and be resistant (or vulnerable) to suggestions during…

María Esther Téllez-Acosta; Andres Acher; Scott P. McDonald – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Learning to plan modeling-based investigations (MBIs) presents significant challenges for pre-service elementary teachers. Although they understand disciplinary core ideas and modeling practices, they address both as competing learning goals and, as novices, they have not experienced how to structure MBIs for their future students. In the context…

Claydon, Jacky R.; Fysh, Matthew C.; Prunty, Jonathan E.; Cristino, Filipe; Moreton, Reuben; Bindemann, Markus – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
Facial examiners make visual comparisons of face images to establish the identities of persons in police investigations. This study utilised eye-tracking and an individual differences approach to investigate whether these experts exhibit specialist viewing behaviours during identification, by comparing facial examiners with forensic fingerprint…

This laboratory experiment aims to provide undergraduate students with research experience in water treatment by membrane separation. This experiment includes fabrication and characterization, as well as water treatment applications of the interfacially polymerized polyester nanofiltration membranes. Through participating in this experimental…

Kleinman, Steven M. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
Constructive changes in the practice of investigative interviewing have emerged as a direct result of an unprecedented and robust collaboration between behavioral science researchers and professionals in the field. At the same time, an ever-increasing number of experienced practitioners have shown a willingness to adopt science-based methods in…

Wooten, Alex R.; Carlson, Curt A.; Lockamyeir, Robert F.; Carlson, Maria A.; Jones, Alyssa R.; Dias, Jennifer L.; Hemby, Jacob A. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
According to the Diagnostic Feature-Detection (DFD) hypothesis, the presence of fillers that match the eyewitness's description of the perpetrator will boost discriminability beyond a showup, and very few fillers may suffice to produce the advantage. We tested this hypothesis by comparing showups with simultaneous lineups of size 3, 6, 9, and 12.…

Shani Naudé; Jannie Pretorius – Research in Social Sciences and Technology, 2024
Biology teachers' attitudes play a vital role in successful scientific investigations. Some biology teachers situated in the central part of South Africa experience challenges that include a lack of the necessary scientific knowledge and skills, which hinders the presentation of scientific investigations. These challenges adversely influence these…

Lin Zhang; John Sweller – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
The use of investigations in science teaching is both common and commonly advocated for in science education literature. We suggest that the use of investigations should differ depending on the complexity of the subject matter. That complexity can vary depending on both the nature of the information and students' expertise levels. The present…

Karunia Eka Lestari; Mokhammad Ridwan Yudhanegara – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
Graph theory allows the student to work on problems that require imagination, intuition, systematic exploration, conjecturing, and reasoning. It implies that mathematical investigation skill is essential to be proficient in Graph Theory. In this study, we conduct empirical research that deals with associational research. There were 97 students…

Saraqini, Dea; Stear, Cassie; Moore, Kara – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
People have difficulty sighting missing persons, partially because people's limited cognitive resources are required for searching. As a result, people sometimes do not devote resources to searching. This research will examine whether empathy increases the resources devoted to searching and search performance. In Experiment 1, we will manipulate…

Galeriu, Calin – Physics Teacher, 2022
The determination of the speed of sound in air is a classical experiment, usually performed with a resonance tube apparatus. The measured value can be checked against Eq. (1), which describes the temperature dependence of the speed of sound in dry air. A modern implementation of this speed of sound investigation uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller…
