The current study examined how individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders navigate the complexities of learning within multidimensional environments marked by uncertain dimension values and without explicit guidance. Participants engaged in a game-like complex reinforcement learning task in which the stimuli dimension determining reward…

Background: Undergraduate students consistently struggle with mastering concepts related to thermodynamics. Prior work has shown that haptic technology and intensive hands-on workshops help improve learning outcomes relative to traditional lecture-based thermodynamics instruction. The current study takes a more feasible approach to improving…

Healthy aging is associated with changes in motor sequence learning, with some studies indicating decline in motor skill learning in older age. Acute cardiorespiratory exercise has emerged as a potential intervention to improve motor learning, however research in healthy older adults is limited. The current study investigated the impact of…

When faced with challenging thinking tasks accompanied by a feeling of uncertainty, people often prefer to opt out (e.g., replying "I don't know", seeking advice) over giving low-confidence responses. In professions with high-stakes decisions (e.g., judges, medical practitioners), opting out is generally seen as preferable to making…

For student teachers' professional development, the emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) represents both opportunity and challenge. This exploratory quasi-experimental study aims to investigate the effects of "Human-Human" and "Human-Machine" collaborative learning approaches on the STEM teaching training…

Information literacy is an essential twenty-first-century skill for students. Most students face difficulty in discerning online information while searching, evaluating, and utilizing it effectively. Appropriate information evaluating framework, such as RADAR (relevance, authority, date, appearance, and reason for writing), has been recommended to…
