Trezise, Kim L.; Gray, Kylie M.; Taffe, John; Sheppard, Dianne M. – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2014
Background: To develop effective education strategies, a detailed knowledge of the working memory profile in Down syndrome (DS) and autism with intellectual disability (ID) is required. Materials and Methods: Fifteen adolescents with DS, 11 boys with autism and ID, and 12 boys with nonspecific ID (NSID) were compared on 2 versions of a novel…

Arnold, Derek H.; Wegener, Signy V.; Brown, Francesca; Mattingley, Jason B. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Grapheme-color synesthesia is an atypical condition in which individuals experience sensations of color when reading printed graphemes such as letters and digits. For some grapheme-color synesthetes, seeing a printed grapheme triggers a sensation of color, but "hearing" the name of a grapheme does not. This dissociation allowed us to…

Rhodes, Gillian; Lie, Hanne C.; Ewing, Louise; Evangelista, Emma; Tanaka, James W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2010
Discrimination and recognition are often poorer for other-race than own-race faces. These other-race effects (OREs) have traditionally been attributed to reduced perceptual expertise, resulting from more limited experience, with other-race faces. However, recent findings suggest that sociocognitive factors, such as reduced motivation to…

Simpson, Tamara; Camfield, David; Pipingas, Andrew; Macpherson, Helen; Stough, Con – Educational Gerontology, 2012
In an increasingly aging population, a number of adults are concerned about declines in their cognitive abilities. Online computer-based cognitive training programs have been proposed as an accessible means by which the elderly may improve their cognitive abilities; yet, more research is needed in order to assess the efficacy of these programs. In…

Peer reviewedRolfe, Sharne A.; Day, R. H. – Child Development, 1981
Two experiments were conducted to investigate six-month-old infants' recognition memory for the shape of an object following unimodal (visual) and bimodal (visual and haptic) familiarization. Visual recognition memory was evident only when the conditions of familiarization and testing were identical. Two possible explanations are presented and…

Chalmers, Kerry A.; Grogan, Melissa J. – Cognitive Development, 2006
The basis of young children's performance of judgments of recency and frequency was investigated using a modified version of Huppert and Piercy's [Huppert, F. A., & Piercy, M. (1978). The role of trace strength in recency and frequency judgements by amnesic and control subjects. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 30, 347-354]…
