Liu, Lingyan; Zhao, Bo; Rao, Yiqiang – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2022
A lot of studies have shown that there is an "inverse U-curve" relationship between learners' grades and cognitive load. Learners' grades are closely related to their learning behavior characteristics on online learning. Is there any relationship between online learners' behavior characteristics and cognitive load? Based on this, the…

Rosman, Tom; Kerwer, Martin – Psychology Learning and Teaching, 2022
Fostering students' epistemic beliefs is key for achieving a more nuanced approach to psychological knowledge. The Bendixen-Rule model on epistemic change posits epistemic doubt (questioning one's prior epistemic beliefs), epistemic volition (the will to change one's beliefs) and resolution strategies (strategies to overcome epistemic doubt by…

In two studies, we used the Gottschaldt's Hidden Figure Test (GHFT) for assessing figure disembedding ability in children aged 7-11. Study 1 demonstrated in a large sample of typically developing children that GHFT accuracy and time scores differed across age groups, without sex and socioeconomic differences. Thus, we provided normative data only…

Radvansky, Gabriel A.; Doolen, Abigail C.; Pettijohn, Kyle A.; Ritchey, Maureen – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
The forgetting curve is one of the most well known and established findings in memory research. Knowing the pattern of memory change over time can provide insight into underlying cognitive mechanisms. The default understanding is that forgetting follows a continuous, negatively accelerating function, such as a power function. We show that this…

Helix, Max R.; Blackford, Katherine A.; Firestein, Zachary M.; Greenbaum, Julia C.; Gibson, Katarina; Baranger, Anne M. – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
A central practice in the discipline of organic chemistry is the ability to solve certain fundamental problems, including predicting reactivity, proposing mechanisms, and designing syntheses. These problems are encountered frequently by both students and practitioners, who need to utilize vast amounts of content knowledge in specific ways to…

Sternberg, Robert J. – Journal of Intelligence, 2022
This article discusses the issues of the basic processes underlying intelligence, considering both historical and contemporary perspectives. The attempt to elucidate basic processes has had, at best, mixed success. There are some problems with pinpointing the underlying basic processes of intelligence, both in theory and as tested, such as what…

Jia, Xiaoyu; Xu, Tianwei; Zhang, Yuchi – Journal of Intelligence, 2022
Previous research has shown that creative mindsets influence creativity. Compared with people with a fixed creative mindset, those with a growth creative mindset performed better in creative tasks. The underlying mechanism, however, is not completely understood. The present study has extended previous works to explore whether metacognitive…

Sayegh, Fares; Herraiz, Laurie; Colom, Morgane; Lopez, Sébastien; Rampon, Claire; Dahan, Lionel – Learning & Memory, 2022
Dopamine participates in encoding memories and could either encode rewarding/aversive value of unconditioned stimuli or act as a novelty signal triggering contextual learning. Here we show that intraperitoneal injection of the dopamine D1/5R antagonist SCH23390 impairs contextual fear conditioning and tone-shock association, while intrahippocampal…

Cheong, Choo Mui; Zhu, Xinhua; Liu, Yaping – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Background: As a complex cognitive task, integrated writing (IW) requires not only different language modalities but also persistent cognitive effort. In practice, varied language modalities are taught together with IW tasks. However, little research has been done to investigate independent and integrated language tasks simultaneously. In…

Coppess, Brian – Educational Research: Theory and Practice, 2022
Largely because of its behaviorist roots and despite several progressive education movements, external control has been the primary motivation technique used by educators since the dawn of formal schooling in the United States. Decades of recent research, however, has led to a paradigm shift of sorts, suggesting that by challenging their mental…

Kramer, Robin S. S.; Jones, Alex L. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Facial first impressions are known to influence how we behave towards others. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we often view incomplete faces due to the commonplace wearing of face masks. Previous research has shown that perceptions of attractiveness are often increased due to these coverings, with initial evidence suggesting that this may be…

Bharadwaj, Avni; Dargue, Nicole; Sweller, Naomi – Cognitive Science, 2022
Research has shown that gesture production supports learning across a number of tasks. It is unclear, however, whether gesture production during encoding can support narrative recall, who gesture production benefits most, and whether certain types of gestures are more beneficial than others. This study, therefore, investigated the effect of…

Hsu, Chien-Ju – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Sentence comprehension requires both syntactic prediction and working memory processes. Evidence suggests that both are impaired in agrammatic aphasia, and can independently contribute to comprehension breakdowns, but the relationship between them, especially during real-time sentence comprehension remains unclear. Two EEG studies investigated…

Teodóra Vékony; Claire Pleche; Orsolya Pesthy; Karolina Janacsek; Dezso Nemeth – npj Science of Learning, 2022
Procedural learning is key to optimal skill learning and is essential for functioning in everyday life. The findings of previous studies are contradictory regarding whether procedural learning can be modified by prioritizing speed or accuracy during learning. The conflicting results may be due to the fact that procedural learning is a multifaceted…

Cognitive performance is both heritable and sensitive to environmental inputs and sustained practice over time. However, it is currently unclear how genetic effects on cognitive performance change over the course of learning. We examine how polygenic scores (PGS) created from genome-wide association studies of educational attainment and cognitive…
