Barutchu, Ayla; Fifer, Joanne M.; Shivdasani, Mohit N.; Crewther, Sheila G.; Paolini, Antonio G. – Child Development, 2020
This study assessed the developmental profile of unisensory and multisensory processes, and their contribution to children's intellectual abilities (8- and 11-year olds, N = 38, compared to adults, N = 19) using a simple audiovisual detection task and three incidental associative learning tasks with different sensory signals: visual-verbal with…

Bodén, Ulrika; Stenliden, Linnéa; Nissen, Jörgen – Journal of Visual Literacy, 2023
This study aims to demonstrate how interactions between a Visual Analytics (VA) application and students shape an interactive and multimodal reading practice. VA is a technology offering support with analysing vast amounts of data through visualisations. Such information-rich interactive interfaces provide possibilities for students to gain…

Zhou, Ni; Wong, Hai Ming; McGrath, Colman – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2019
Background: A visual-verbal integration model (VVIM) was used to train parents and their children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to dispense a pea-sized amount of fluoridated toothpaste, aiming to balance the occurrence of dental caries and fluorosis. Method: Participants were 370 pairs of IDD preschool children and their…

Marschark, Marc; Spencer, Linda J.; Durkin, Andreana; Borgna, Georgianna; Convertino, Carol; Machmer, Elizabeth; Kronenberger, William G.; Trani, Alexandra – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2015
It is frequently assumed that deaf individuals have superior visual-spatial abilities relative to hearing peers and thus, in educational settings, they are often considered visual learners. There is some empirical evidence to support the former assumption, although it is inconsistent, and apparently none to support the latter. Three experiments…

Jeste, Shafali S.; Kirkham, Natasha; Senturk, Damla; Hasenstab, Kyle; Sugar, Catherine; Kupelian, Chloe; Baker, Elizabeth; Sanders, Andrew J.; Shimizu, Christina; Norona, Amanda; Paparella, Tanya; Freeman, Stephanny F. N.; Johnson, Scott P. – Developmental Science, 2015
Statistical learning is characterized by detection of regularities in one's environment without an awareness or intention to learn, and it may play a critical role in language and social behavior. Accordingly, in this study we investigated the electrophysiological correlates of visual statistical learning in young children with autism…

Choi, Jean; Sardar, Shaila – Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2011
Although specific cognitive abilities, cognitive style, and learning preferences are assumed to be inter-related, the empirical evidence supporting this assumption is mixed. Cognitive style refers to how individuals represent information, and learning preference refers to how individuals prefer the presentation of information (Mayer & Massa,…

Yang, Hui-Yu – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2014
The present study examines how display model, English proficiency and cognitive preference affect English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' listening comprehension of authentic videos and cognitive load degree. EFL learners were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The control group received single coding and the experimental group received…

Kolloffel, Bas – Computers & Education, 2012
A student might find a certain representational format (e.g., diagram, text) more attractive than other formats for learning. Computer technology offers opportunities to adjust the formats used in learning environments to the preferences of individual learners. The question addressed in the current study was: does the match between a student's…

Floyd, Randy G.; McGrew, Kevin S.; Barry, Amberly; Rafael, Fawziya; Rogers, Joshua – School Psychology Review, 2009
Many school psychologists focus their interpretation on composite scores from intelligence test batteries designed to measure the broad abilities from the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory. The purpose of this study was to investigate the general factor loadings and specificity of the broad ability composite scores from one such intelligence test…

Mayer, Richard E.; Massa, Laura J. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2003
Examines the hypothesis that some people are verbal learners and some people are visual learners. Presented a battery of 14 cognitive measures related to the visualizer-verbalizer dimension to 95 college students and then conducted correlational and factor analyses. Results have implications for how to conceptualize and measure individual…

Pratt, Chris; Bryant, Peter – Child Development, 1990
Results of three experiments suggest that, in contrast to the claims made by Wimmer and others (1988), three- and four-year-old children understand that looking leads to knowing. The three- and four-year-olds' difficulty in the study lay mainly in the form of the questions that they were asked. (RH)

Prather, P A; Bacon, Joshua – Child Development, 1986
Describes preschool children's ability to simultaneously perceive multiple aspects of an object in two experiments during which three- to five-year-olds were asked to describe part/whole pictures. (HOD)

Turati, Chiara; Macchi Cassia, Viola; Simion, Francesca; Leo, Irene – Child Development, 2006
Existing data indicate that newborns are able to recognize individual faces, but little is known about what perceptual cues drive this ability. The current study showed that either the inner or outer features of the face can act as sufficient cues for newborns' face recognition (Experiment 1), but the outer part of the face enjoys an advantage…

Mix, Kelly S.; And Others – Child Development, 1996
Investigated the ability of three- and four-year-old children to perform tasks which require matching sets of sounds to numerically equivalent visual displays. Findings indicated that three-year-olds performed at the level of chance on the auditory-visual matching task, but four-year-olds performed significantly above chance. (MOK)

Dougherty, Thomas M.; Haith, Marshall M. – Developmental Psychology, 1997
Investigated the relation between infant expectations and reaction time (RT) at age 3 months, and Childhood IQ and RT at 4 years. Found that visual RT and manual RT in childhood correlated only marginally. Data suggested stability in RT between early infancy and childhood, or predictability of childhood IQ by infant RT and anticipation during…
