Felix Krieglstein; Maik Beege; Lukas Wesenberg; Günter Daniel Rey; Sascha Schneider – Educational Psychology Review, 2025
In research practice, it is common to measure cognitive load after learning using self-report scales. This approach can be considered risky because it is unclear on what basis learners assess cognitive load, particularly when the learning material contains varying levels of complexity. This raises questions that have yet to be answered by…

Daniel Fitousi – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
For nearly half a century now, Garner interference has been serving as the gold standard measure of dimensional interaction and selective attention. But the mechanisms that generate Garner interference are still not well understood. The current study proposes a novel theory that ascribes the interference (and dimensional interaction in general) to…

Choi, Soonri; Song, Jihoon – International Journal of Educational Methodology, 2023
We propose a plan to facilitate the development of backward constituent skills within a complex learning process through the manipulation of emphasis sequencing. To achieve this, we utilized perceptual offloading cues as supportive information in emphasis sequencing, taking into consideration principles of information processing and cognitive…

St-Louis, Marie-Ève; Hughes, Robert W.; Saint-Aubin, Jean; Tremblay, Sébastien – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
In a single large-scale study, we demonstrate that verbal sequence learning as studied using the classic Hebb repetition effect (Hebb, 1961)--the improvement in the serial recall of a repeating sequence compared to nonrepeated sequences--is resilient to both wide and irregular spacing between sequence repetitions. Learning of a repeated sequence…

Sjöblom, Amanda; Hughes, Robert W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Two experiments (N = 154 in total) using the Hebb repetition effect--the enhancement of serial recall performance for a repeated sequence in among otherwise nonrepeated sequences--reveal a key role for active articulatory-planning processes in verbal sequence learning, contrary to a prominent, phonological-store based, model (Burgess & Hitch,…

Schneider, Benedikt; Sparfeldt, Jörn R. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
In recent studies, test-score increases have been shown in rule-based intelligence test tasks, such as number series, after watching a corresponding video tutorial. An open question remains regarding the mechanisms involved. Specifically, taking notes to describe the relations between numbers might be linked to test scores, and is hypothesized to…

Salvaggio, Samuel; Masson, Nicolas; Andres, Michael – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Behavioral studies have reported interactions between number processing and spatial attention, suggesting that number processing involves shifting attention along a mental continuum on which numbers are represented in ascending order. However, direct evidence for attention shifts remains scarce, the respective contribution of the horizontal and…

Baclayon, Joshlen C. – Online Submission, 2019
This study investigates the effectiveness of particular teaching styles, inductive method and deductive method, in stimulating significant improvement on the reading comprehension skills of the third-year college education students in Cebu Technological University-Danao with specific learning style preferences, sequential learners and global…

Zuza, Kristina; Sarriugarte, Paulo; Ametller, Jaume; Heron, Paula R. L.; Guisasola, Jenaro – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Curriculum Development: Theory into Design.] We argue that teaching learning sequence (TLS) design needs to be further developed through the explicit articulation of methodology, which comprises the theoretical commitments regarding research and how those give rise to methods for design,…

Jonker, Tanya R.; MacLeod, Colin M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Reconstructing memory for sequences is a complex process, likely involving multiple sources of information. In 3 experiments, we examined the source(s) of information that might underlie the ability to accurately place an event within a temporal context. The task was to estimate, after studying each list, the temporal position of a single test…

Dounas, Lamiae; Salinesi, Camille; Beqqali, Omar El – Journal of Information Technology Education: Research, 2019
Aim/Purpose: In this paper, we highlight the need to monitor and diagnose adaptive e-learning systems requirements at runtime to develop a better understanding of their behavior during learning activities and improve their design. Our focus is to reveal which learning requirements the adaptive system is satisfying while still evolving and to…

Jonker, Tanya R.; MacLeod, Colin M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Remembering the order of a sequence of events is a fundamental feature of episodic memory. Indeed, a number of formal models represent temporal context as part of the memory system, and memory for order has been researched extensively. Yet, the nature of the code(s) underlying sequence memory is still relatively unknown. Across 4 experiments that…

Borghetti, C.; Beaven, A.; Pugliese, R. – Intercultural Education, 2015
The study presented in this article aims to explore if and how intercultural learning may take place in students' class interaction. It is grounded in the assumption that interculturality is not a clear-cut feature inherent to interactions occurring when individuals with presumed different linguistic and cultural/national backgrounds talk to each…

Hlavatý, Robert; Dömeová, Ludmila – International Education Studies, 2014
The paper is focused on students of Mathematical methods in economics at the Czech university of life sciences (CULS) in Prague. The idea is to create a model of students' progress throughout the whole course using the Markov chain approach. Each student has to go through various stages of the course requirements where his success depends on the…

Hafidi, Mohamed; Bensebaa, Taher – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2015
The majority of adaptive and intelligent tutoring systems (AITS) are dedicated to a specific domain, allowing them to offer accurate models of the domain and the learner. The analysis produced from traces left by the users is didactically very precise and specific to the domain in question. It allows one to guide the learner in case of difficulty…
