Military Experience Predicts Military Multitasking Better than Laboratory Measures in Officer Cadets
Peer reviewed
Direct linkYannik Hilla; Maximilian Stefani; Elisabeth V. C. Friedrich; Wolfgang Mack – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2025
Whether or not it is possible to predict military performance using laboratory measures constitutes an important question. There are indications that humans possess a common multitasking ability enabling them to perform complex behaviors irrespective of task requirements. Working memory processing abilities likely illustrate cognitive substrates…

Boutet, Isabelle; Meinhardt-Injac, Bozana – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Background: Face-identity processing declines with age. Few studies have examined whether face-identity processing abilities can be measured independently from general cognitive abilities in older adults (OA). This question has practical implications for the assessment of face-identity processing abilities in OA and theoretical implications for…

Letang, Sarah K.; Lin, Shayne S. -H.; Parmelee, Patricia A.; McDonough, Ian M. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Systemic racism can have broad impacts on health in ethnoracial minorities. One way is by suppressing socioeconomic status (SES) levels through barriers to achieve higher income, wealth, and educational attainment. Additionally, the weathering hypothesis proposes that the various stressful adversities faced by ethnoracial minorities lead to…

Sisk, Caitlin A.; Toh, Yi Ni; Jun, Jihyang; Remington, Roger W.; Lee, Vanessa G. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
The interactions between emotion and attention are complex due to the multifaceted nature of attention. Adding to this complexity, the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the emotional landscape, broadly heightening health and financial concerns. Can the heightened concerns about COVID-19 impair one or more of the components of attention? To explore the…

Dotan, Dror; Brutman, Nadin – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Representing the base-10 structure of numbers is a challenging cognitive ability, unique to humans, but it is yet unknown how precisely this is done. Here, we examined whether and how literate adults represent a number's full syntactic structure. In 5 experiments, participants repeated number-word sequences and we systematically varied the order…

Meyerhoff, Hauke S.; Grinschgl, Sandra; Papenmeier, Frank; Gilbert, Sam J. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
The cognitive load of many everyday life tasks exceeds known limitations of short-term memory. One strategy to compensate for information overload is cognitive offloading which refers to the externalization of cognitive processes such as reminder setting instead of memorizing. There appears to be remarkable variance in offloading behavior between…
