Hernández Finch, Maria E.; Trammell, Beth; Hulse, Asia R.; Finch, William H.; Wildrick, Aimee; Floyd, Elizabeth F.; Pittenger, Jenna; McIntosh, David E. – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Understanding the relationship between executive functioning and its connection to working memory and adaptive functioning can inform planning and employment efforts. This study explored the relationship between memory and adaptive functioning with a sample of Autistic youths/young adults. Participant mean age was 21.3 (SD = 3.0). Of the 22…

Brian J. Birdsell – Journal for the Psychology of Language Learning, 2023
It is well documented that exercise plays a critical role in maintaining physical health. More recently, a growing body of research has begun to focus on the mental benefits of exercise ranging from reducing depression to enhancing various cognitive abilities like memory and attention. These abilities are paramount for learning to occur, and thus,…

Research on eyewitness identification often involves exposing participants to a simulated crime and later testing memory using a lineup. We conducted a systematic review showing that pre-event instructions, instructions given before event exposure, are rarely reported and those that are reported vary in the extent to which they warn participants…

Schaper, Marie Luisa; Bayen, Ute J.; Hey, Carolin V. – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Metamemory monitoring, study behavior, and memory are presumably causally connected. When people misjudge their memory, their study behavior should be biased accordingly. Remedying "metamemory illusions" should debias study behavior and improve memory. One metamemory illusion concerns source memory, a critical aspect of episodic memory.…

Zhao, Wenbo; Yin, Yue; Hu, Xiao; Shanks, David R.; Yang, Chunliang; Luo, Liang – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Item memory (e.g., recall or recognition of specific items) can reactively change when metacognitively monitored via judgments of learning (JOLs). The current research explores whether memory for inter-item relations (e.g., semantic relations among list items) is reactively influenced by JOLs. Participants in Experiment 1 studied rhyming word…

Grant, Lauren D.; Weissman, Daniel H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Current views posit that forming and retrieving memories of ongoing events influences action control. However, the organizational structure of these memories, or event files, remains unclear. The "hierarchical coding view" posits a hierarchical structure, wherein task sets occupy a high level of the hierarchy. Here, the contents of an…

Karen S. Helfer; Richard van Emmerik; Richard L. Freyman; Jacob J. Banks – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess how needing to listen and remember information while walking affects speech perception, memory task performance, and gait in younger and middle-aged adults. Method: Four gait parameters (stride duration, step variability, whole-body center of mass acceleration, and mediolateral head acceleration)…

Masapollo, Matthew; Zezas, Emily; Shamsi, Allen; Wayland, Ratree; Smith, Dante J.; Guenther, Frank H. – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
Generalization in motor control is the extent to which motor learning affects movements in situations different than those in which it originally occurred. Recent data on orofacial speech movements indicates that motor sequence learning generalizes to novel syllable sequences containing phonotactically illegal, but previously practiced, consonant…

Yafeng Pan; Ning Hao; Ning Liu; Yijie Zhao; Xiaojun Cheng; Yixuan Ku; Yi Hu – npj Science of Learning, 2023
It is said that our species use mnemonics -- that "magic of memorization" -- to engrave an enormous amount of information in the brain. Yet, it is unclear how mnemonics affect memory and what the neural underpinnings are. In this electroencephalography study, we examined the hypotheses whether mnemonic training improved…

Maija Zakrizevska-Belogrudova; Airisa Steinberga; Anete Hofmane; Argron Rusmani – Discourse and Communication for Sustainable Education, 2024
This study examines the relationship between the habits of young adults in the use of information technologies and the cognitive processes involved in learning. It was found that information technologies have become an irreplaceable part of modern education, offering vast opportunities to access information and resources, thus promoting the…

Diana Selmeczy; Alireza Kazemi; Simona Ghetti – Child Development, 2024
The current research examined how seeking versus receiving help affected children's memory and confidence decisions. Baseline performance, when no help was available, was compared to performance when help could be sought (Experiment 1: N = 83, 41 females) or was provided (Experiment 2: N = 84, 44 females) in a sample of predominately White 5-, 7-,…

Nathan W. Whitmore; Erika M. Yamazaki; Ken A. Paller – npj Science of Learning, 2024
When memories are reactivated during sleep, they are potentially transformed and strengthened. However, disturbed sleep may make this process ineffective. In a prior study, memories formed shortly before sleep were weakened by auditory stimulation when that stimulation provoked memory reactivation while also disrupting sleep -- a procedure known…

Jeremy J. Grachan; Rhiannon Robinson; Julie Doll; Kelsey Stevens; Bobbie J. Leeper – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Many institutions worldwide honor the gift of human body donors through memorial services, ceremonies, and various other means, such as guided reflection or art activities. Memorial services can vary when it comes to the name, who is involved in the planning, and who may attend. Within the United States, the role of religion in the planning and…

Jessica A. Adams; Bryan M. Dewsbury; Joshua R. Tanzer – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Undergraduate introductory human anatomy and human physiology courses are either taught as discipline-specific or integrated anatomy and physiology (A&P) sequences. An institution underwent a curricular revision to change the course approach from discipline-specific Human Anatomy and Human Physiology to an integrated A&P I and II sequence,…

Caro Hautekiet; Naomi Langerock; Evie Vergauwe – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
Many researchers agree that information residing in the focus of attention in working memory benefits from a boost in memory strength and activation, as well as heightened accessibility. However, recent studies have questioned this heightened accessibility. More specifically, these recent studies found reduced accessibility for an item in the…
