The Cognitive Underpinnings of Multiply-Constrained Problem Solving
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Ellis, Derek M.; Robison, Matthew K.; Brewer, Gene A. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
Individuals encounter problems daily wherein varying numbers of constraints require delimitation of memory to target goal-satisfying information. Multiply-constrained problems, such as the compound remote associates, are commonly used to study this type of problem solving. Since their development, multiply-constrained problems have been…

Aptitude for Interpreting: The Predictive Value of Cognitive Fluency
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Song, Shuxian; Li, Dechao – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2023
Cognitive factors have been recognised as important in the interpreting process, but whether they could serve as valid components of interpreting aptitude still awaits further investigation. This study explores the predictive value of cognitive fluency in the simultaneous interpreting (SI) performance of trainee interpreters. Cognitive fluency…

Distraction Control Processes in Free Recall: Benefits and Costs to Performance
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Marsh, John E.; Sörqvist, Patrik; Hodgetts, Helen M.; Beaman, C. Philip; Jones, Dylan M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
How is semantic memory influenced by individual differences under conditions of distraction? This question was addressed by observing how participants recalled visual target words-drawn from a single category-while ignoring spoken distractor words that were members of either the same or a different (single) category. Working memory capacity (WMC)…

Development of Higher Mental Functions in First-Graders during the School Year Depending on the Intensity of Educational Activities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Tvardovskaya, Alla A.; Svinar, Elena V. – International Journal of Environmental and Science Education, 2016
The relevance of the investigated problem is caused by the fact that most children who start to study do not have a good level of higher mental functions. It leads to difficulties at school and health problems. The article aims at estimating the level of higher mental functions and the degree of educational motivation development among…

The Explicit/Implicit Knowledge Distinction and Working Memory: Implications for Second-Language Reading Comprehension
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Ercetin, Gulcan; Alptekin, Cem – Applied Psycholinguistics, 2013
Following an extensive overview of the subject, this study explores the relationships between second-language (L2) explicit/implicit knowledge sources, embedded in the declarative/procedural memory systems, and L2 working memory (WM) capacity. It further examines the relationships between L2 reading comprehension and L2 WM capacity as well as…

Event-Related EEG Oscillations to Semantically Unrelated Words in Normal and Learning Disabled Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Fernandez, Thalia; Harmony, Thalia; Mendoza, Omar; Lopez-Alanis, Paula; Marroquin, Jose Luis; Otero, Gloria; Ricardo-Garcell, Josefina – Brain and Cognition, 2012
Learning disabilities (LD) are one of the most frequent problems for elementary school-aged children. In this paper, event-related EEG oscillations to semantically related and unrelated pairs of words were studied in a group of 18 children with LD not otherwise specified (LD-NOS) and in 16 children with normal academic achievement. We propose that…
