Cognitive flexibility refers to the ability to rapidly and accurately switch between tasks. It is regarded as a core dimension of executive functions and has been reported to improve during childhood and into early adulthood. For its evaluation, the task-switching paradigm is widely used. Switching between tasks or response sets imposes a series…

Li, Shan; Zheng, Juan; Lajoie, Susanne P. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
In this paper, we adopted an information-processing perspective to examine the relationship between cognitive engagement and students' performance in a simulation-based training environment. In particular, we examined what forms of cognitive engagement students used while diagnosing virtual patients and whether engagement forms predicted students'…

Berntsen, Dorthe; Hoyle, Rick H.; Munkholm Møller, Daniel; Rubin, David C. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
Smartphones are a ubiquitous part of many people's lives, but little is known about their impact on everyday thought processes. Here we introduce the "spontaneous smartphone checking scale" (SSCS)--which measures the tendency to direct attention toward one's smartphone, unpreceded by external prompts (e.g., notifications, or alerts) and…

Antar, Rafi – E-Learning and Digital Media, 2023
The following article is a thorough literature review, discussing the impact of media technology on brain development in the context of magical thinking. This systematic literature review discusses the impact of video gaming on magical thinking in early childhood. The purpose of this paper is to shed light on how media technology, especially video…

Yu, Yuhua; Oh, Yongtaek; Kounios, John; Beeman, Mark – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
To solve a new problem, people spontaneously engage multiple cognitive processes. Previous work has identified a diverse set of oscillatory components critical at different stages of creative problem solving. In this project, we use hidden state modeling to untangle the roles of oscillation processes over time as people solve puzzles. Building on…

Järvelä, Sanna; Nguyen, Andy; Hadwin, Allyson – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
Artificial intelligence (AI) has generated a plethora of new opportunities, potential and challenges for understanding and supporting learning. In this paper, we position human and AI collaboration for socially shared regulation (SSRL) in learning. Particularly, this paper reflects on the intersection of human and AI collaboration in SSRL…

Schukajlow, Stanislaw; Krawitz, Janina; Kanefke, Jonas; Blum, Werner; Rakoczy, Katrin – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
Open mathematical modelling problems that can be solved with multiple methods and have multiple possible results are an important part of school curricula in mathematics and science. Solving open modelling problems in school should prepare students to apply their mathematical knowledge in their current and future lives. One characteristic of these…

Lu, Yao; Li, Ke-Ru; Sun, Zhuo; Ma, Ning; Sun, Yi-Fan – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Collaborative problem-solving (CPS) learning is increasingly valued for its role in promoting higher-order thinking of learners. Despite the widespread application of role scripts in CPS, little is known about the mechanisms by which roles influence learners' cognition and the impact of goal orientation on roles. In this study, we designed role…

Hurst, Michelle A.; Boyer, Ty W.; Cordes, Sara – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Although difficulties processing both symbolic and nonsymbolic proportion compared with absolute number are well established, the mechanisms involved remain unclear. We investigate four potential explanations to account for better number processing in adulthood: (a) number is more salient than proportion, (b) number is encoded more automatically…

Handedness has been studied for association with language-related disorders because of its link with language hemispheric dominance. No clear pattern has emerged, possibly because of small samples, publication bias, and heterogeneous criteria across studies. Non-right-handedness (NRH) frequency was assessed in N = 2503 cases with reading and/or…

Brosnan, Mark; Ashwin, Chris – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
The Dual Process Theory of Autism proposes that autistic individuals demonstrate greater deliberative (slower) processing alongside reduced (faster) intuitive processing. This study manipulated the reasoning time available to investigate the extent to which deliberative and intuitive processing are sensitive to time context in autism. A total of…

Carr, David – Educational Theory, 2023
In the context of the recent revival of virtue ethics, the notion of character formation under the rational guidance of Aristotle's notion of "phronesis," or practical wisdom, has been exalted as the principal aim of moral education. However, this is not unproblematic insofar as the promotion of Aristotelian "phronesis" seems…

Chen, Ouhao; Paas, Fred; Sweller, John – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Educational researchers have been confronted with a multitude of definitions of task complexity and a lack of consensus on how to measure it. Using a cognitive load theory-based perspective, we argue that the task complexity that learners experience is based on element interactivity. Element interactivity can be determined by simultaneously…

Ledezma, Carlos; Font, Vicenç; Sala, Gemma – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
The aim of this article is to carry out a work of networking theories which combines two perspectives on the mathematical activity involved in a modelling process, in order to answer the following question: To what extent does the application of the onto-semiotic tools complement the analysis from a cognitive perspective of a mathematical…

Haigh, Sarah M.; Van Key, Laura; Brosseau, Pat; Eack, Shaun M.; Leitman, David I.; Salisbury, Dean F.; Behrmann, Marlene – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Sensory abnormalities are characteristic of autism and schizophrenia. In autism, greater trial-to-trial variability (TTV) in sensory neural responses suggest that the system is more unstable. However, these findings have only been identified in the amplitude and not in the timing of neural responses, and have not been fully explored in…
