Loh, Karin; Fintor, Edina; Nolden, Sophie; Fels, Janina – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Children's development and education take place in educational buildings with highly complex acoustic scenes, including spatially distributed target speakers, many surrounding distracting sounds, and general background noises. Auditory selective attention, therefore, is a valuable tool to orient oneself, to focus on specific sound sources, and to…

Maximilian Seitz; Manja Attig; Dave Möwisch; Markus Vogelbacher; Sabine Weinert – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2025
Studies on the emergence of effects of socioeconomic inequality typically report that socioeconomic background is positively associated with early cognitive abilities. However, studies on looking behaviour in habituation tasks rarely investigate this association, although such tasks are standard in measuring cognitive abilities in infants. The…

Uta Czyrnick-Leber; Kiara Kuhrs; Christian Kraft; Pamela Wicker; Bernd Groben – Journal of Prison Education Research, 2025
A cognitive prerequisite for education and (re)entry into the labor market is the ability to concentrate for a long period. Conducted with 39 participants, the present study examines the effect of a six-week dance-like martial arts program on prisoners' concentration ability in an open prison in Germany (n=15), and compares their concentration…

Solveig Jurkat; Moritz Köster; Ledys Hernández Chacón; Shoji Itakura; Joscha Kärtner – Developmental Science, 2024
Previous cross-cultural research has described two different attention styles: a holistic style, characterized by context-sensitive processing, generally associated with interdependent cultural contexts, and an analytic style, a higher focus on salient objects, generally found in independent cultural contexts. Though a general assumption in the…

Nemati, Parvin; Kühnhausen, Jan; Mehri, Azar; Schmid, Johanna; Mohammadi, Zahra; Nuerk, Hans-Christoph; Gawrilow, Caterina – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2023
Background: Self-regulation has frequently been shown to be context-sensitive, suggesting the influence of different cultural contexts on its development. However, up until now, self-regulation has been mainly studied in Western countries with similar cultural contexts. Objective: Thus, with the present study we compared self-regulation of…

Marina Klimovich; Tobias Richter – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Mind-wandering during reading is often associated with worse comprehension performance. Research suggests that metacognitive competences (i.e., the knowledge about as well as monitoring and regulation of one's own cognitive processes) are positively related to reading performance and may play a role in the prevalence of mind-wandering. However,…

Gal Raz; Sabrina Piccolo; Janine Medrano; Shari Liu; Kirsten Lydic; Catherine Mei; Victoria Nguyen; Tianmin Shu; Rebecca Saxe – Developmental Psychology, 2024
The study of infant gaze has long been a key tool for understanding the developing mind. However, labor-intensive data collection and processing limit the speed at which this understanding can be advanced. Here, we demonstrate an asynchronous workflow for conducting violation-of-expectation (VoE) experiments, which is fully "hands-off"…

Bianca Ulitzka; Monika Daseking; Julia Kerner auch Koerner – Infant and Child Development, 2025
Delay of gratification tasks have an impressive predictive value for various outcomes and are designed to measure self-regulation. Since many behavioural and psychological conditions in children are related to limitations in self-regulation, the extent to which delay tasks can be used as a screening for the detection of psychopathology is…

Franze, Marco; Biermann, Josefin; Kästner, Anika; Ernst, Vanessa Sophie; Hoffmann, Wolfgang – Prevention Science, 2022
Epidemiological data reveal that there is a need for prevention measures specifically targeted at children with low SES. In the German federal state Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania preschools in socially deprived regions can apply for additional funds to support children with developmental risks. Mandatory criteria for obtaining these funds involve…

Goetz, Thomas; Bieleke, Maik; Yanagida, Takuya; Krannich, Maike; Roos, Anna-Lena; Frenzel, Anne C.; Lipnevich, Anastasiya A.; Pekrun, Reinhard – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
The emotion of boredom has sparked considerable interest in research on teaching and learning, but boredom during tests and exams has not yet been examined. Based on the control-value theory of achievement emotions, we hypothesized that students may experience significant levels of boredom during testing ("test boredom"; Hypothesis 1)…

Objective: Short-term RCTs have demonstrated that MPH-treatment significantly reduces ADHD-symptoms, but is also associated with adverse events, including sleep problems. However, data on long-term effects of MPH on sleep remain limited. Methods: We performed a 2-year naturalistic prospective pharmacovigilance multicentre study. Participants were…

Teacher noticing can be an important element in improving teaching and students' mathematical success. While the focus of the international project "Learning from Lessons" was on teacher learning, in this paper we report what mathematics teachers noticed and claimed to learn through the process of planning, teaching, and reflecting on…

Sader, Alice; Walg, Marco; Ferdinand, Nicola K. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
Children with ADHD show deficits in executive functioning, especially the ability to inhibit inadequate responses, and deficits in motivational processes due to dopaminergic dysfunctions. There is evidence that rewards can foster inhibition in children with ADHD. However, most studies examined a wide age range of children above 7 years of age, so…

Blanaid Gavin; Conal Twomey; Elisha Minihan; Gary O'Reilly; Fiona McNicholas – Irish Educational Studies, 2024
Extant evidence indicates that there is a stronger link between homework difficulties and ADHD than in the general population of children. In addition, parents' involvement in education is an important factor in academic success. Despite the well-established challenges that homework presents to children with ADHD, none of the existing treatment…

It reviews the publication timeframe, authorship, keywords, and leading institutions and regions, along with burst terms and highly…
