Ralston, Robert W.; Sloutsky, Vladimir M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Young children can generalize from known to novel, but the underlying mechanism is still debated. Some argue that from an early age generalization is category-based and undergoes little development, while others believe that early generalization is similarity-based, and the use of categories emerges over time. The current research brings new…

Potts, Charlie; Stebleton, Michael J. – About Campus, 2023
This essay explores the journey college men face as they negotiate the formation and development of their digital and masculine identities from first year to senior year. Several objectives guide this article: (1) to provide insight into how and why the landscape of identity development has shifted for men; (2) to offer recommendations for…

Mónica Guerra Santana; Josue Artiles-Rodríguez; Josefa Rodríguez Pulido – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2024
Introduction: The difference in the opinions of two groups of university students on the transition to adulthood and on certain educational aspects over a period of 8 years was analysed, one before and the other after the Sars-Cov 2 pandemic. Method: The questionnaire was applied based on the perception that university students have on the…

Godard, Marc; Wamain, Yannick; Ott, Laurent; Delepoulle, Samuel; Kalénine, Solène – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Recent evidence in adults indicates that object perceptual processing is affected by the competition between action representations. In the absence of a specific motor plan, reachable objects associated with distinct structural (grasping) and functional (using) actions (e.g., calculator) elicit slower judgments than objects associated with similar…

Laura Anarbek; Gulnara Sarsenbayeva; Elmira Uteubayeva; Gulnara Issayeva; Kulakhmet Moldabek; Anarbek Kozybay – Educational Process: International Journal, 2025
Background/purpose: Despite the contributions of existing literature, there is a clear deficiency in studies that systematically address the development of pedagogical acmeology skills as a core component of teacher training programs. This study aims to address this gap by examining pedagogical acmeology as a holistic approach to improving…

Cowan, Nelson; AuBuchon, Angela M.; Gilchrist, Amanda L.; Blume, Christopher L.; Boone, Alexander P.; Saults, J. Scott – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Younger children have more difficulty in sharing attention between two concurrent tasks than do older participants, but in addition to this developmental change, we documented changes in the nature of attention sharing. We studied children 6-8 and 10-14 years old and college students (in all, 104 women and 76 men; 3% Hispanic, 3% Black or African…

Brittany C. Bradford – Grantee Submission, 2023
The United States is experiencing a shortage of STEM workers, with many students leaving the pipeline before attaining a career in STEM. STEM education researchers have identified factors at the high school and college level that contribute to attrition, but earlier life events remain underexplored. In this work-in-progress paper, we examine…

O'Leary, Allison P.; Sloutsky, Vladimir M. – Developmental Psychology, 2019
It is often argued that metacognition includes 2 components: monitoring and control. However, it is unclear whether these components can operate independently, or whether they always operate as part of a hierarchy. The current study attempts to address this issue. In Experiment 1 (N = 90), age-related differences were assessed to examine the…

Christyn Dolbier; Sarah Vanacore; Alia Simon; Taylor L. Stallings; Jordan Signorelli; Kelsey M. Dietrich – Journal of College Student Development, 2024
This study sought to identify levels and types of positive changes experienced during the pandemic and determine whether different patterns of positive changes existed across academic years. In this repeated cross-sectional mixed methods study, different samples of undergraduate students at a large, public university were recruited in Fall…

Marangell, Samantha – Journal of Comparative and International Higher Education, 2023
Reduced international student mobility has prompted Australian universities to reframe the way they provide intercultural and international learning experiences, with less dependence on the recruitment of international students. However, many related teaching and learning approaches are often met with perceived student resistance. The aim of this…

Kezilas, Yvette; McKague, Meredith; Kohnen, Saskia; Badcock, Nicholas A.; Castles, Anne – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Masked transposed-letter (TL) priming effects have been used to index letter position processing over the course of reading development. Whereas some studies have reported an increase in TL priming over development, others have reported a decrease. These findings have led to the development of 2 somewhat contradictory accounts of letter position…

Deng, Wei; Sloutsky, Vladimir M. – Developmental Psychology, 2015
Does category representation change in the course of development? And if so, how and why? The current study attempted to answer these questions by examining category learning and category representation. In Experiment 1, 4-year-olds, 6-year-olds, and adults were trained with either a classification task or an inference task and their…

Iordanou, Kalypso; Muis, Krista R.; Kendeou, Panayiota – Journal of Experimental Education, 2019
Relations between epistemic perspective and online epistemic processing of evidence when reading a text were examined. Thirty-seven young adolescents and 24 graduate university students were asked to read and think aloud with two texts, one in the history domain and the other in the science domain. Participants also completed a prior-knowledge…

Coch, Donna – Developmental Science, 2015
While behavioral and educational data characterize a fourth grade shift in reading development, neuroscience evidence is relatively lacking. We used the N400 component of the event-related potential waveform to investigate the development of single word processing across the upper elementary years, in comparison to adult readers. We presented…
