Evangelia G. Chrysikou; Nancy A. Wintering; Chloe Hriso; Shiva Shahrampour; David B. Yaden; Scott Barry Kaufman; Mahdi Alizedah; Feroze B. Mohamed; Andrew B. Newberg – Creativity Research Journal, 2024
Prior work suggests that differences in brain morphology and task-evoked neural activity may underlie extraordinary creative achievement. Here, we extend these findings by focusing on resting blood oxygen level-dependent (rsBOLD) functional connectivity differences between eminent creators from diverse fields of expertise and a "smart"…

Mei Grace Behrendt; Carrie Clark; McKenna Elliott; Joseph Dauer – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Metacognitive calibration--the capacity to accurately self-assess one's performance--forms the basis for error detection and self-monitoring and is a potential catalyst for conceptual change. Limited brain imaging research on authentic learning tasks implicates the lateral prefrontal and anterior cingulate brain regions in expert scientific…

Ghada Amaireh; Line Caes; Aimee Theyer; Christina Davidson; Sobanawartiny Wijeakumar – Infant and Child Development, 2024
Caregiver executive functions (EFs) play an integral role in shaping cognitive development. Here, we investigated how caregiver EF abilities (86 caregivers; "mean age" = 33.4 years, SD = 4.5) was associated with visual working memory (VWM) in infants (86 infants females; mean age = 250.6 days, SD = 35.8). The BRIEF-A was used to assess…

Long, Bern – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2023
In this article the author describes an intervention program for students who were approximately six months behind expected standards. The program, "Prepare 2 Learn," had four components: building prior knowledge; developing mental computational fluency; encouraging a growth mindset; and meta-cognitive strategies. The qualitative data…

Xiaojing Lv; Yujie Jia; Thomas M. Brinthaupt; Xuezhu Ren – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Despite the recognized importance of addressing belief bias in critical thinking, little is known about the neural activity underlying belief-bias reasoning and its connection to critical thinking. The study utilized event-related potentials (ERPs) to examine the neural responses during belief-bias reasoning and explored the extent to which these…

Han, Insook; Obeid, Iyad; Greco, Devon – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2023
This report describes the use of electroencephalography (EEG) to collect online learners' physiological information. Recent technological advancements allow the unobtrusive collection of live neurosignals while learners are engaged in online activities. In the context of multimodal learning analytics, we discuss the potential use of this new…

Kefayat Delf Loveymi; Rezvan Homaei – Emotional & Behavioural Difficulties, 2024
Today, school bullying is considered an important social problem that causes developmental injuries and health issues in bullies and victims. The present study investigated the mediating role of brain-behavioural systems in relationships between school climate and emotional self-regulation with school bullying in high school students. This study…

Jiaqi Yin; Haoxin Xu; Yafeng Pan; Yi Hu – npj Science of Learning, 2025
Artificial intelligence (AI) driven chatbots provide instant feedback to support learning. Yet, the impacts of different feedback types on behavior and brain activation remain underexplored. We investigated how metacognitive, affective, and neutral feedback from an educational chatbot affected learning outcomes and brain activity using functional…

Akçay, Behiye; Adigüzel, Sibel; Tiryaki, Aydin; Yavuz, Rüveyda – International Journal on Social and Education Sciences, 2023
The purpose of this study is to examine effects of Brain-Based Learning (BBL) method on seventh grade students' metacognitive awareness. Concurrent nested mixed method was used in the study. Thirty 7th grade students (21 girls, nine boys) participated in this study voluntarily. The unit of "Structure and Properties of Matter" was taught…

Damien S. Fleur; Bert Bredeweg; Wouter van den Bos – npj Science of Learning, 2021
Metacognition comprises both the ability to be aware of one's cognitive processes (metacognitive knowledge) and to regulate them (metacognitive control). Research in educational sciences has amassed a large body of evidence on the importance of metacognition in learning and academic achievement. More recently, metacognition has been studied from…

Shin, Dajung Diane; Lee, Minhye; Bong, Mimi – Theory Into Practice, 2022
Are there really "right-brained" and "left-brained" learners? The argument of left- and right-brain learning is the second most pervasive neuromyth in education. In this article, we debunk this myth by distinguishing fact from fiction. Each hemisphere indeed shows dominance in processing certain types of cognitive function.…

Denis Staunton; Aimie Brennan – Peter Lang Publishing Group, 2024
In this beautifully-written book, the authors skip across the many bridges that connect neuroscience to education, creating a wonderful resource for educators. They consider all the elements that an understanding of neuroscience can bring to education in a highly accessible manner, focusing on emotions and spiritual meaning as well as more…

Birknerová, Zuzana; Tej, Juraj; Vrábliková, Mária – International Journal of Instruction, 2022
Currently is necessary to identify own way of cognition and information processing, so called the cognitive style, which is connected with learning style. Contribution contains theoretical information about many typologies of learning styles (e.g.. according to brain hemispheres dominance, intelligence, learning motivation, etc.) and research is…

Andreu, Catherine I.; García-Rubio, Carlos; Melcón, María; Schonert-Reichl, Kimberly A.; Albert, Jacobo – Developmental Science, 2023
Interest in the applications of mindfulness practice in education is growing in the scientific community. Recent research has shown that mindfulness practice in schools may be beneficial for executive functions (EFs) which are abilities crucial for healthy development. The study of the effects of mindfulness practices on children's neural…
