The Neurocognitive Development of Episodic Prospection and Its Implications for Academic Achievement
Prabhakar, Janani; Coughlin, Christine; Ghetti, Simona – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2016
Episodic prospection is the ability to mentally simulate personal future events that are rich in contextual detail and plausible for the individual. It therefore incorporates episodic information (who, what, where, and when of a particular event), as well as details about one's self (e.g., knowledge, goals, motivations and desires). The ability to…

Neal, Glen E.; Effgen, Susan K.; Arnold, Sandra; Baldwin, Jonathan; Jeffries, Lynn M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Students with Down syndrome (DS) receive school-based physical therapy (SBPT), however little data exists regarding services and outcomes. Using a prospective observational cohort study our aim was to explore SBPT activities and interventions, and students' goal achievement of 46 students with DS, tracked by 17 physical therapists (PTs). PTs…

Yöntem, Mustafa Kemal; Akpinar, Selçuk; Talas, Sertan; Altunsöz, Irmak Hürmeriç; Kiliçarslan, Ali – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2021
Perceptual development which depends on ability of learning and maturity, is the most important process of mental development. It is commonly believed that the mental development of children is limited due to city life. Children can learn perceptual elements through movement participation. This improves the cognitive development, which triggers…

Walkington, Candace; Swart, Michael I.; Nathan, Mitchell J. – Grantee Submission, 2018
We explore whether "directed actions"--body movements that learners are instructed to formulate--enhance mathematical reasoning during proof production. Evidence is mounting that sensorimotor activity can activate neural systems, which can in turn alter and induce cognitive states (Nathan, 2014). New interventions are using…

Davies, Don A.; Greba, Quentin; Selk, Jantz C.; Catton, Jillian K.; Baillie, Landon D.; Mulligan, Sean J.; Howland, John G. – Learning & Memory, 2017
Working memory is involved in the maintenance and manipulation of information essential for complex cognition. While the neural substrates underlying working memory capacity have been studied in humans, considerably less is known about the circuitry mediating working memory capacity in rodents. Therefore, the present experiments tested the…

Tovar-Moll, Fernanda; Lent, Roberto – Prospects: Quarterly Review of Comparative Education, 2016
Education is a socially structured form of learning. It involves the brains of different players--students, teachers, family members, and others--in permanent interaction. The biological set of mechanisms by which these brains receive, encode, store, and retrieve mutually exchanged information is called "neuroplasticity". This is the…

Riddell, Patricia – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2016
Fox argues that the poetic function of language fulfils the human need to symbolise. Metaphor, simile and analogy provide examples of the ways in which symbolic language can be used creatively. The neural representations of these processes therefore provide a means to determine the neurological basis of creative language. Neuro-imaging has…

Kim, Seonil; Pick, Joseph E.; Abera, Sinedu; Khatri, Latika; Ferreira, Danielle D. P.; Sathler, Matheus F.; Morison, Sage L.; Hofmann, Franz; Ziff, Edward B. – Learning & Memory, 2016
Phosphorylation of GluA1, a subunit of AMPA receptors (AMPARs), is critical for AMPAR synaptic trafficking and control of synaptic transmission. cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGKII) mediates this phosphorylation, and cGKII knockout (KO) affects GluA1 phosphorylation and alters animal behavior. Notably, GluA1 phosphorylation in the KO…

Lin, Hsiang-Yuan; Ni, Hsing-Chang; Tseng, Wen-Yih Isaac; Gau, Susan Shur-Fen – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
While a considerable number of youth with autism spectrum disorder exhibit impaired self-regulation (dysregulation), little is known about the neural correlates of dysregulation in autism spectrum disorder. In a sample of intellectually able boys with autism spectrum disorder (further categorized as those with and without dysregulation) and…

Perusini, Jennifer N.; Fanselow, Michael S. – Learning & Memory, 2015
In this review, we discuss the usefulness of the distinction between fear and anxiety. The clinical use of the labels is ambiguous, often defining one in terms of the other. We first consider what a useful, objective, and scientifically valid definition would entail and then evaluate several fear/anxiety distinctions that have been made in the…

Ivic, Ivan – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2019
This paper aims to sketch a framework for comparing the efficiency of printed and digital textbooks. Considering the fact that digital textbooks are a relatively new phenomenon, they lack both practical experiences with their use, and research on their efficiency - which is why all results will only be of a preliminary nature. This is also why our…

Kristi Bronwyn Strode – ProQuest LLC, 2021
In this study, the problem that has been addressed is the poor college academic experiences of neuro-diverse students who do not complete degree programs at the same rate as their non-disabled peers despite levels of self-esteem that are at times comparable to those of non-disabled peers. The undergirding framework for the study was Self…

Shinn-Cunningham, Barbara – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2017
Purpose: This review provides clinicians with an overview of recent findings relevant to understanding why listeners with normal hearing thresholds (NHTs) sometimes suffer from communication difficulties in noisy settings. Method: The results from neuroscience and psychoacoustics are reviewed. Results: In noisy settings, listeners focus their…

Crawford, Eric; Gingerich, Matthew; Eliasmith, Chris – Cognitive Science, 2016
Several approaches to implementing symbol-like representations in neurally plausible models have been proposed. These approaches include binding through synchrony (Shastri & Ajjanagadde, 1993), "mesh" binding (van der Velde & de Kamps, 2006), and conjunctive binding (Smolensky, 1990). Recent theoretical work has suggested that…

Thomas, Karen S. – Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, 2016
Music plays an important part in the transitional period of life for adolescents as they define their personal and social identities and build their preferences for music. Recent neuroscientific research into the adolescent brain has produced developmental models that work to explain the neural reasons behind teenage behavior and development.…
