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…

Zupan, Zorana; Blagrove, Elisabeth L.; Watson, Derrick G. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
By approximately 6 years of age, children can use time-based visual selection to ignore stationary stimuli, already in the visual field and prioritize the selection of newly arriving stimuli. This ability can be studied using preview search, a version of the visual search paradigm with an added temporal component, in which one set of distractors…

Allen, Katie; Higgins, Steve; Adams, John – Educational Psychology Review, 2019
The body of research surrounding the relationship between visuospatial working memory (VSWM) and mathematics performance remains in its infancy. However, it is an area generating increasing interest as the performance of school leavers comes under constant scrutiny. In order to develop a coherent understanding of the literature to date, all…

Aul, Courtney; Brau, Julia M.; Sugarman, Alexander; DeGutis, Joseph M.; Germine, Laura T.; Esterman, Michael; McGlinchey, Regina E.; Fortenbaugh, Francesca C. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Visuospatial processing speed underlies several cognitive functions critical for successful completion of everyday tasks, including driving and walking. While it is widely accepted that visuospatial processing speed peaks in early adulthood, performance across the lifespan remains incompletely characterized. Additionally, there remains a lack of…

Hong, Jon-Chao; Hwang, Ming-Yueh; Chen, Mei-Syuan; Tai, Kai-Hsin – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
In line with the attention-to-affect model, this study employed a game that encompasses Gestalt perception to explore how extraneous cognitive load (ECL) and gameplay anxiety correlate with attitude towards exploitative learning and attitude towards explorative learning as students play the Visual-Saliency game (VSG) with images of artworks. The…

Allen, Lucy; Dowker, Ann – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2022
We examined the role of visuo-spatial working memory in different types of arithmetic ability in children. Previous research had suggested that arithmetic is not a single entity (Dowker, 2005, 2015), and also that visuo-spatial working memory is specifically involved in mathematical cognition (McKenzie et al., 2003) There has, however, been little…

Liang, Zhanhong; Dong, Peiqi; Zhou, Yanlin; Feng, Shanshan; Zhang, Qiong – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Background: Previous research showed a significant association between mathematics and working memory (WM). However, evidence regarding the different effects of verbal and visuospatial WM on mathematical abilities was very limited. Aims: The current research aims to explore the relationship between verbal and visuospatial WM with mathematical…

Heled, Eyal; Ohayon, Maayan – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2021
Studies examining visuospatial working memory (WM) in individuals with congenital deafness have yielded inconsistent results, and tactile WM has rarely been examined. The current study examined WM span tasks in the two modalities among 20 individuals with congenital deafness and 20 participants with typical hearing. The congenital deafness group…

Yang, Xiujie; Qiao, Linyan – Infant and Child Development, 2021
The present study aimed to examine how visual skills, verbal working memory, visuospatial working memory, and other general cognitive skills (inhibitory control, attention, and decision speed) were simultaneously correlated with the early acquisition of reading among kindergarten children. A total of 99 Chinese children were tested individually on…

Mary Aldugom – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Children and adult learners benefit from viewing hand gestures at instruction across domains (Cook, Duffy, & Fenn, 2013; Huang, Kim, & Christianson, 2019; Ping & Goldin-Meadow, 2008). Within the domain of mathematical learning, gesture at instruction has been shown to benefit children and adults in laboratory and classroom settings…

Yuan, Han; Segers, Eliane; Verhoeven, Ludo – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
The relationships between phonological awareness, rapid naming, short term verbal memory, letter knowledge, visual skills and word reading in kindergarten, and the predictive patterns from kindergarten to first grade were examined in 41 Chinese-Dutch bilingual children living in the Netherlands in both their first language (Chinese) and second…

The Relationship between Paired Associate Learning and Chinese Word Reading in Kindergarten Children
Liu, Catrina; Chung, Kevin Kien Hoa; Wang, Li-Chih; Liu, Duo – Journal of Research in Reading, 2021
Background: Research has shown that paired associate learning (PAL) plays an important role in children's word reading across different languages. However, little is known about the construct of PAL and its relationship with word reading in Chinese children. Methods: A total of 204 second-year kindergarten children from Mainland China were…

Andrés, María Laura; Canet-Juric, Lorena; García-Coni, Ana; Olsen, Cintia Daniela; Vernucci, Santiago; Galli, Juan Ignacio; Introzzi, Isabel; Richaud, María Cristina – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2022
The aim of this study was to analyze the moderating effect of distress tolerance (DT) on the relationship between executive functions and academic performance (AP). Participants were 270 children aged 9-12 years. Executive functions (EFs)--working memory (WM), inhibition, and cognitive flexibility--and DT were evaluated using computerized tasks.…

Stadtmiller, Elizabeth; Lindner, Katrin; Süss, Assunta; Gagarina, Natalia – Journal of Child Language, 2022
In error analyses using sentence repetition data, most authors focus on word types of omissions. The current study considers serial order in omission patterns independent of functional categories. Data was collected from Russian and German sentence repetition tasks performed by 53 five-year-old bilingual children. Number and positions of word…

Liu, Catrina; Chung, Kevin Kien Hoa; Tang, Pui Man – Educational Psychology, 2022
This study investigated the unique contribution of orthographic awareness, letter knowledge, and patterning skills to early literacy and arithmetic competence. A total of 145 third-year kindergarten (K3) children (M[subscript age]: 73.43 months, SD = 5.36; 70 boys, 48%) from Hong Kong participated in this study. Children were assessed on their…
