Preston P. Thakral; Connor C. Starkey; Aleea L. Devitt; Daniel L. Schacter – Creativity Research Journal, 2025
Episodic retrieval plays a functional-adaptive role in supporting divergent creative thinking, the ability to creatively combine different pieces of information. However, the same constructive memory process that provides this benefit can also lead to memory errors. Prior behavioral work has shown that there is a positive correlation between the…

Newborns are able to neurally discriminate between speech and nonspeech right after birth. To date it remains unknown whether this early speech discrimination and the underlying neural language network is associated with later language development. Preterm-born children are an interesting cohort to investigate this relationship, as previous…

Mark Feng Teng; Yachong Cui – Reading in a Foreign Language, 2025
A growing number of studies have focused on uncovering linguistic and cognitive skills predictive of reading comprehension. Vocabulary knowledge (VK) and morphological awareness (MA) are two important linguistic variables for reading comprehension. In contrast, working memory (WM) is an essential cognitive variable for reading comprehension. The…

Neuroscience findings offer promising ways to enhance performance in educational settings. Adolescents often experience sleep deprivation, impacting memory processes crucial for learning. The synaptic homeostasis hypothesis (SHY) posits that non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, particularly slow wave activity (0.5-4 Hz), downscales synapses…

Nakhon Kitjaroonchai; Prema Marshall; Jirapa Phasook; Nadtawadee Thararuenroeng – Journal of English Teaching, 2025
This study investigated university students' perceptions of notetaking and its potential impact on academic performance, as well as the factors influencing their note-taking decisions. The participants included 150 students, comprising 75 Thai and 75 non-Thai students enrolled at Asia-Pacific International University, Thailand, during the second…

Sofia Giazitzidou; Kyle Levesque; Hélène Deacon – Reading Research Quarterly, 2025
The relation of morphological awareness with reading comprehension is well established. For this advance to inform instruction, the push is now on to understand how morphological awareness is related to reading comprehension. We address this question here by examining potential mechanisms. We do so with children in Grade 1, a time at which it is…

J. Riikka Ahokas; Suvi Saarikallio; Graham Welch; Tiina Parviainen; Jukka Louhivuori – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2025
This study investigated whether enhanced rhythm training improves literacy development and working memory performance in pupils in the first and second year of school. According to recent literature, we hypothesized that rhythm-focused training could be effective for children with reading difficulties. Pupils aged 6 to 8 years participated in the…

Amy Canham; Marion Coumel; Juliana Manolova; Angela de Bruin – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2025
Bilingual students can take notes in their first language (L1) or their second language (L2). Higher note-taking quality, which might differ between the L1 and L2, has been associated with better memory of new content. In this study, we examined how language of note taking within bilinguals affects note quality and memory of new content. One…

Jolien Moorkens; Jean-Philippe van Dijck; Wim Fias – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2025
Previous research has investigated the Spatial Numerical Associations of Response Codes (SNARC) effect as a measure of spatial number coding in relation to mathematics (Cipora et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1111/nyas.14355). An issue that arises if one wants to correlate mathematical performance with the SNARC effect, is how individual…

School-going individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face challenges in educational settings, including reduced academic performance, motor- and social skills. Embodied cognition (EC), which emphasises the significant role of the body in human cognition, encompasses aspects such as motor control, non-verbal communication, and memory.…

Sisi Liu; Ning Li; Xinyong Zhang; Li-Chih Angus Wang; Duo Liu – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2025
To investigate the longitudinal effects of two domain-general cognitive abilities, namely verbal working memory and visual search skill, on Chinese reading comprehension. To evaluate whether decoding and linguistic comprehension mediate such effects. A total of 202 first-grade Chinese-speaking children from mainland China (M[subscript]age =…

Aysegül Okay; Gülay Cedden – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2025
This study investigates the relationship among working memory (WM), mathematics, and language, with the aim of understanding: (1) whether the functions and capacities of WM components can predict achievement in language and mathematics; and (2) whether competence in the first language (L1) and achievement in mathematics can predict success in…

This study investigates the relationships among working memory (WM), syntactic parsing ability (SP), and L2 reading performance across varying proficiency levels. A cohort of 120 L1-Persian EFL learners was categorized into beginner, intermediate, and advanced proficiency groups based on their IELTS scores. Participants completed a reading span…

Dual language learner children (DLLs) benefit from early childhood education (ECE) and learning multiple languages, but research has predominantly focused on English monolingual children, with limited insight on the ECE and early development of DLLs. This study investigated whether DLLs' developmental assets assessed at pre-k entry (i.e. English…
