Solares, Leslie; Fryling, Mitch J. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
A large amount of learning occurs through the observation of stimulus-stimulus relations. One procedure that involves this sort of learning is the stimulus-pairing observation procedure (SPOP). The current study involves a systematic replication of Byrne, Rehfeldt, and Aguirre (2014). Tests for the emergence of tact and listener relations were…

Konishi, Haruka; Brezack, Natalie; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy – Grantee Submission, 2019
Infants appear to progress from universal to language-specific event perception. In Japanese, two different verbs describe a person crossing a "bounded ground" (e.g., street) versus an unbounded ground (e.g., field) while in English, the same verb -- "crossing" -- describes both events. Interestingly, Japanese "and"…

López-Ferrer, Adrià; Marco-Ahulló, Adrià; Monfort-Torres, Gonzalo; Ramón-Llin, Jesús; de Moraes Filho, Joao Alves; García-Massó, Xavier – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2022
Objective: To determine which type of feedback (visual, verbal, or both combined) facilitates to a greater extent the learning of a specific skill (passing in volleyball). Methods: Three groups of students between 14 and 15 years of age belonging to the third year of Compulsory Secondary Education in a Spanish public high school (n = 58) were…

Rivera-Rodriguez, Adrian; Sherwood, Maxwell; Fitzroy, Ahren B.; Sanders, Lisa D.; Dasgupta, Nilanjana – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
This study measured event-related brain potentials (ERPs) to test competing hypotheses regarding the effects of anger and race on early visual processing (N1, P2, and N2) and error recognition (ERN and Pe) during a sequentially primed weapon identification task. The first hypothesis was that anger would impair weapon identification in a biased…

Coppi, Alessia Eletta; Oertel, Catharine; Cattaneo, Alberto – Vocations and Learning, 2021
Visual expertise is a fundamental proficiency in many vocations and many questions have risen on the topic, with studies looking at experts and novices differences' in observation (e.g., radiologists) or at ways to help novices achieve visual expertise (e.g., through annotations). However, most of these studies focus on white-collar professions…

Lown, Elizabeth L.; Radley, Keith C.; Dart, Evan H.; Dufrene, Brad A.; Tingstrom, Daniel H.; Hayes, Lynda; Tannehill, Jennifer – Psychology in the Schools, 2021
A number of researchers have found behavior-specific praise (BSP) to be an effective strategy for increasing student academic engagement. Performance feedback is often used to promote teacher BSP; however, variations in how performance feedback is provided have been proposed and it is unknown whether one strategy may be more effective than others.…

Zhou, Han-yu; Yang, Han-xue; Shi, Li-juan; Lui, Simon S. Y.; Cheung, Eric F. C.; Chan, Raymond C. K. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Atypical sensory processing has recently gained much research interest as a key domain of autistic symptoms. Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit difficulties in processing the temporal aspects of sensory inputs, and show altered behavioural responses to sensory stimuli (i.e., sensory responsiveness). The present study examined…

Pezzuti, Lina; Dawe, James; Borghi, Anna Maria – Educational Gerontology, 2021
The aim of this study is to focus on the verbal stimuli of the Vocabulary subtest of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale -- Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV). To our knowledge, this is the first research to examine whether the abstractness/concreteness and the lexical category of the words in the WAIS-IV vocabulary subtest influence the ability to…

Sequeira Cesar de Oliveira, Juliana – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The present study sought to evaluate trial designs and training designs that are commonly used in popular commercially available computer-assisted language-learning (CALL) programs. The first two experiments (Experiment 1a and 1b) compared the effects of passive viewing and active student response methods in vocabulary learning. Contingencies on…

Martín Tévar, Jesús – International Journal of English Studies, 2020
The objectives of this study are to elicit perceptions that Chinese users of English have towards a selection of world English varieties; to determine the effects of speaker gender and visual primes (ethnic faces) on perceptions; and also to reveal how these two factors interact with each other. In the present experiment, 278 respondents were…

van Laarhoven, Thijs; Stekelenburg, Jeroen J.; Eussen, Mart L. J. M.; Vroomen, Jean – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Autism spectrum disorder is a pervasive neurodevelopmental disorder that has been linked to a range of perceptual processing alterations, including hypo- and hyperresponsiveness to sensory stimulation. A recently proposed theory that attempts to account for these symptoms, states that autistic individuals have a decreased ability to anticipate…

Lacey, Simon; Jamal, Yaseen; List, Sara M.; McCormick, Kelly; Sathian, K.; Nygaard, Lynne C. – Cognitive Science, 2020
Sound symbolism refers to non-arbitrary mappings between the sounds of words and their meanings and is often studied by pairing auditory pseudowords such as "maluma" and "takete" with rounded and pointed visual shapes, respectively. However, it is unclear what auditory properties of pseudowords contribute to their perception as…

de Groot, Tjitske; Jacquet, Wolfgang; Backer, Free De; Peters, Ruth; Meurs, Pieter – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2020
This study is one of the first to explore the use of (drawn) visual vignettes in qualitative research in Africa. The vignette method was used to discuss the sensitive topic of people's attitudes towards people with albinism in Tanzania among high school students. Focus was on two key questions: (i) To what extent was the vignette method…
