Jamiika Thomas; Will Fleming; Linda J. Hayes – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2024
From an operant perspective, verbal behavior is multiply controlled by different sources of stimulation, including self-stimulation. Self-stimulation (i.e., responding with respect to one's own response products) is thought to be especially important for verbal mediation that temporally extends discriminative stimulus control. While previous…

Pazdera, Jesse K.; Kahana, Michael J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The modality effect refers to the robust finding that memory performance differs for items presented aurally, as compared with visually. Whereas auditory presentation leads to stronger recency performance in immediate recall, visual presentation often produces better primacy performance (the inverse modality effect). To investigate and model these…

Angélica Mateus-Moreno; Maria Fernanda Lara-Diaz; Daniel Adrover-Roig; Eva Aguilar-Mediavilla; Gracia Jiménez-Fernández – Annals of Dyslexia, 2025
Recent research suggests that performance on Statistical Learning (SL) tasks may be lower in children with dyslexia in deep orthographies such as English. However, it is debated whether the observed difficulties may vary depending on the modality and stimulus of the task, opening a broad discussion about whether SL is a domain-general or…

Madison, Erin M.; Fulton, Erika K. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Metacomprehension refers to the ability to monitor and control reading comprehension. It is important for individuals to be accurate in their judgments of comprehension, as this can affect academic performance. One type of accuracy, relative accuracy, tends to be low, meaning individuals cannot adequately differentiate well-known from less…

Wu, Chih-Fu; Wu, Hsiang-Ping; Tu, Yung-Hsiang; Yeh, I-Ting; Chang, Chin-Te – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2022
Introduction: Many tactile graphics designed for individuals with visual impairments consider single factors. According to the results of our previous study, there may be interactions among scale, representation, and complexity factors. We conducted this integrative study with these three factors. Additionally, for the representation factor, we…

Roark, Casey L.; Lescht, Erica; Hampton Wray, Amanda; Chandrasekaran, Bharath – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Categories are fundamental to everyday life and the ability to learn new categories is relevant across the lifespan. Categories are ubiquitous across modalities, supporting complex processes such as object recognition and speech perception. Prior work has proposed that different categories may engage learning systems with unique developmental…
