Lindsay C. Bowman; Amanda C. Brandone – Developmental Science, 2024
Behavioral research demonstrates a critical transition in preschooler's mental-state understanding (i.e., theory of mind; ToM), revealed most starkly in performance on tasks about a character's false belief (e.g., about an object's location). Questions remain regarding the neural and cognitive processes differentiating children who pass versus…

Graves, Scott L., Jr.; Johnson, Kyanna; Phillips, Shanye; Jones, Mark; Jacobs, Marcel – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Research has indicated that school aged (6-16 years) versions of cognitive assessment instruments have varying levels of linguistic demand, which could impact assessment results for placement purposes.

Skelling-Desmeules, Yannick; Brault Foisy, Lorie-Marlène; Potvin, Patrice; Lapierre, Hugo G.; Ahr, Emmanuel; Léger, Pierre-Majorique; Masson, Steve; Charland, Patrick – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2021

In this study, we investigate the persistence of the "moving things…

Gillmeister, Helge; Stets, Manuela; Grigorova, Milla; Rigato, Silvia – Developmental Psychology, 2019
There is general consensus that the representation of the human face becomes functionally specialized within the first few months of an infant's life. The literature is divided, however, on the question whether the specialized representation of the remainder of the human body form follows a similarly rapid trajectory or emerges more slowly and in…

Hudson Golino; Angeline S. Lillard; Ian Becker; Alexander P. Christensen – Grantee Submission, 2021
The current paper investigates the structural validity of the Children's Concentration and Empathy Scale (CCES), which was designed based on Montessori's developmental theory to assess, using teacher ratings, the coherence of attention-related characteristics (concentration, empathy, and normalization) in children from 1.5 to 12 years old. The…
