Hatice Merve Imir; K. Büsra Kaynak-Ekici; Z. Fulya Temel – Infant and Child Development, 2024
This study examines metacognitive monitoring in Turkish preschoolers aged 48--66 months, crucial for their learning and development. A specialised paired-association task was designed to assess higher-order thinking skills in this age group. Data from 160 children (52.5% girls, 47.5% boys; mean age 57.6 months, standard deviation 4.8) were…

N.; Varma, Ravi Prasad; Verma, Mansi; Vishwanath, Yeshaswini – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Picture-naming tests (PNTs) evaluate linguistic impairment in dementia due to semantic memory impairment, impaired lexical retrieval or perceptual deficits. They also assess the decline in naming impairment at various stages of dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) that occurs due to progressive cognitive impairment. With the…

Ulum, Ömer Gökhan – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing -- as can be clearly observed not only from the rising recognition of assistance tools such as Siri (Apple) but also from the newly introduced Google Voiced Translator. Yet, some crucial benchmarks still have to be supplied before it can act as a proxy for a real instructor: imagination, creativity, and…

Öner, Sezin; Ece, Berivan; Gülgöz, Sami – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2020
We developed and validated the Family Reminiscence Scale (FARS) in which adults rate their frequency of reminiscing with their parents about childhood experiences. In three studies, we characterized how FARS was related to adults' recollections of their earliest memories in different cultural contexts. First, we examined the factorial structure of…

Zare, Mohammad; Bagheri, Mohammad Sadegh; Sadighi, Firooz; Rassaei, Ehsan – Cogent Education, 2021
The current study focused mainly on the role of the linguistic complexity of IELTS writing Task 2. In other words, it investigated the differential effects of two interrelated linguistic complexities of writing Task 2 on the three levels of discourse representation and what IELTS candidates perceived through analyzing IELTS writing topics both at…

Szczesniak, Konrad; Sitter, Hanna – Australian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2021
We propose a previously unexamined factor instrumental in learning vocabulary accounting for the differences between learning a native and a foreign language: the development of critical thinking in adolescence. We hypothesize that the difficulties experienced in foreign vocabulary development result from the learner's readiness to question new…

Benjamin Joseph Schloss – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Some scientists believe that speaking a second language could confer lasting cognitive advantages in aging and stave off the onset of dementia (Bialystok et al., 2007; Craik et al., 2010; Abutalebi & Rietbergen, 2014; Grant et al., 2014; Woumans et al., 2015; Klein et al., 2016; Abutalebi & Green, 2016; Smirnov et al., 2019). However, this…

Picard, Laurence; Abram, Maria; Orriols, Eric; Piolino, Pascale – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
The majority of episodic memory (EM) tests are far removed from what we experience in daily life and from the definition of this type of memory. This study examines the developmental trajectory of the main aspects of episodic memory--what, where, and when--and of feature binding in a naturalistic virtual environment. A population of 125…

Robson, Claire; Sumara, Dennis – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2016
The authors of this article use data produced in a collaborative community arts group in BC Canada as a way to think about validation in arts-based educational research (ABER). As Lather attempted to find middle ground between "rampant subjectivity" and "pointless precision" in research, she (1986) suggested that studies with…

Al-Samarraie, Hosam; Selim, Hassan; Teo, Timothy; Zaqout, Fahed – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
When faced with excessive detail in an online environment, typical users have difficulty processing all the elements of representation. This in turn creates cognitive overload, which narrows the user's focus to a few select items. In the context of e-learning, we translated this aspect as the learner's demand for a system that facilitates the…

Waubert de Puiseau, Berenike; Assfalg, Andre; Erdfelder, Edgar; Bernstein, Daniel M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, 2012
Eyewitnesses often report details of the witnessed crime incorrectly. However, there is usually more than 1 eyewitness observing a crime scene. If this is the case, one approach to reconstruct the details of a crime more accurately is aggregating across individual reports. Although aggregation likely improves accuracy, the degree of improvement…

Jones, Dylan M.; Marsh, John E.; Hughes, Robert W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
We show that retrieval from semantic memory is vulnerable even to the mere presence of speech. Irrelevant speech impairs semantic fluency--namely, lexical retrieval cued by a semantic category name--but only if it is meaningful (forward speech compared to reversed speech or words compared to nonwords). Moreover, speech related semantically to the…
