Freya Elise; Brian Irvine; Jana Brinkert; Charlie Hamilton; Emily K. Farran; Elizabeth Milne; Gaia Scerif; Anna Remington – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2025
Background: Autistic people without intellectual disabilities have increased perceptual capacity: they can process more information at any given time compared to non-autistic people. We examined whether increased perceptual capacity is evident across the autistic spectrum (i.e. for autistic people with intellectual disabilities) and whether it is…

Robert Steinbauer – Journal of Management Education, 2024
We are in the midst of a technological revolution that has the potential to transform management education. The author proposes Virtual Reality (VR) as a pedagogical tool to teach students about workplace harassment. Specifically, this article describes the development and application of two open access VR simulations that are designed to increase…

Simpson, Kate; Paynter, Jessica; Ziegenfusz, Shaun; Westerveld, Marleen – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2022
There has been limited research on identifying and understanding co-occurring challenges associated with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). This is an exploratory study to examine the sensory profile of school-age children with DLD, and to investigate possible relationships between sensory profiles and language skills. Chart information was…

Skewes, Joshua C; Jegindø, Else-Marie; Gebauer, Line – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2015
Autistic people are better at perceiving details. Major theories explain this in terms of bottom-up sensory mechanisms or in terms of top-down cognitive biases. Recently, it has become possible to link these theories within a common framework. This framework assumes that perception is implicit neural inference, combining sensory evidence with…

Bremner, J. Gavin; Slater, Alan M.; Johnson, Scott P.; Mason, Uschi C.; Spring, Jo – Child Development, 2012
Young infants perceive an object's trajectory as continuous across occlusion provided the temporal or spatial gap in perception is small. In 3 experiments involving 72 participants the authors investigated the effects of different forms of auditory information on 4-month-olds' perception of trajectory continuity. Provision of dynamic auditory…

Lewandowsky, Stephan; Yang, Lee-Xieng; Newell, Ben R.; Kalish, Michael L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
Working memory is crucial for many higher level cognitive functions, ranging from mental arithmetic to reasoning and problem solving. Likewise, the ability to learn and categorize novel concepts forms an indispensable part of human cognition. However, very little is known about the relationship between working memory and categorization. This…

Fabricius, William V.; Boyer, Ty W.; Weimer, Amy A.; Carroll, Kathleen – Developmental Psychology, 2010
In 3 studies (N = 188) we tested the hypothesis that children use a perceptual access approach to reason about mental states before they understand beliefs. The perceptual access hypothesis predicts a U-shaped developmental pattern of performance in true belief tasks, in which 3-year-olds who reason about reality should succeed, 4- to 5-year-olds…

Aslin, Richard N. – Developmental Science, 2007
The most common behavioral technique used to study infant perception, cognition, language, and social development is some variant of looking time. Since its inception as a reliable method in the late 1950s, a tremendous increase in knowledge about infant competencies has been gained by inferences made from measures of looking time. Here we examine…

Hofer, Alex; Siedentopf, Christian M.; Ischebeck, Anja; Rettenbacher, Maria A.; Widschwendter, Christian G.; Verius, Michael; Golaszewski, Stefan M.; Koppelstaetter, Florian; Felber, Stephan; Wolfgang Fleischhacker, W. – Brain and Cognition, 2007
In this functional MRI experiment, encoding of objects was associated with activation in left ventrolateral prefrontal/insular and right dorsolateral prefrontal and fusiform regions as well as in the left putamen. By contrast, correct recognition of previously learned objects (R judgments) produced activation in left superior frontal, bilateral…

Iverson, Jana M.; Hall, Amanda J.; Nickel, Lindsay; Wozniak, Robert H. – Brain and Language, 2007
This study examined changes in rhythmic arm shaking and laterality biases in infants observed longitudinally at three points: just prior to, at, and just following reduplicated babble onset. Infants (ranging in age from 4 to 9 months at babble onset) were videotaped at home as they played with two visually identical audible and silent rattles…

Berthoff, Ann E. – Pre-Text: A Journal of Rhetorical Theory, 1993
Explores how a dyadic understanding of perception cancels the validity it might have as a model for the linguistic process. Discusses commonly misunderstood exhibits in the gallery of perception studies--the duck-rabbit and Magritte's pipe. (RS)

Lahiry, Sugato – Training and Development, 1991
Perception training can be an integral part of management development programs. These games can help trainees understand what perception is, how it works, and how it applies in the workplace. (JOW)

Poulin-Dubois, Diane; And Others – Cognitive Development, 1996
Investigates the concept of animacy of 9- and 12-month-old infants by exposing them to autonomous motion with animate and inanimate objects in a series of three experiments. Three experiments were carried out. Results indicated that infants discriminate animate from inanimate objects on the basis of motion cues by the age of nine months. (MOK)

Schlottmann, Anne – Developmental Psychology, 1999
Two studies investigated how 5- to 10-year-olds integrate perceptual causality with their knowledge of the underlying causal mechanism, using two devices in which a bell would ring when a ball was dropped in, either immediately or after a delay, depending on the mechanism inside. Findings suggest a link between temporal contiguity and causality in…

Andrews, Michael F. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 1978
The basic principle of synaesthesia (a sensation produced in one part of the body by a stimulus applied at another part) is described. (BD)
