A B S T R A CT Purpose: Retrieval practice has been shown to assist the word learning of children with developmental language disorder (DLD). Although this has been true for learning new verbs as well as new nouns and adjectives, these children's overall verb learning has remained quite low. In this preregistered study, we presented novel verbs in…

Narrative recall and comprehension are important lifelong skills. While gesturing may improve recall by alleviating cognitive load, it may be differentially beneficial, depending on task and individual characteristics. While research on gesture's effects on a variety of task modalities is burgeoning, effects on recall of narratives read aloud are…

Caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often report higher rates of depression and the related negative thought patterns that may precede a clinical diagnosis. These negative thought patterns are referred to as depressive cognitions. Depressive cognitions are exacerbated by child problem behaviors (CPB) but may be impacted by…

In cognitive psychology, researchers have identified a phenomenon called socially shared retrieval-induced forgetting (SS-RIF) that occurs during collaborative memory tasks in groups. When a speaker selectively retrieves target information, listeners may forget related, non-target information. The mechanism likely involves concurrent covert…

Kinship care is provided by members of a child's extended family or friend network when they can no longer live with their parents. This study explores risk and resilience in UK school environments for students in kinship care. Eight professionals experienced in working with students in kinship care and their schools took part in individual,…

Purpose: Aphasia rehabilitation is a learning process that unfolds over time. Previous group studies have examined aphasia treatment response using pre- to posttreatment comparison, largely ignoring the unfolding learning response that occurs session-to-session. We aimed to (a) characterize the shape of learning while individuals with aphasia…

Immersive learning is predominantly constrained to technology-based interventions but has the potential for more diverse applications. This study reports on an experiment investigating the learning affordances of psychological immersion evoked by narrative absorption. A total of 228 participants were randomly assigned to one of three forms of…

This paper is going to explore an unorthodox understanding of "authenticity." In its unorthodoxy, it may just, then, be more authentic, and more true, than the conventional understandings of this word, and less subject to attack than those conventional understandings. The author proposes here that the most authentic form of authenticity…

This article assesses Edward Said's thoughts on the role of intellectuals in the so-called regime of post-truth alongside the work of Deleuze and Guattari. I focus on Said's caution against 'the cult of expertise' and 'partisan policy intellectuals' under neoliberal globalisation and compare his views on 'intellectual exile' with Deleuze and…

Value-directed remembering refers to the tendency to best remember important information at the expense of less valuable information, and this ability may draw on strategic attentional processes. In six experiments, we investigated the role of attention in value-directed remembering by examining memory for important information under conditions of…

Objective: The study explored the prospective relations between depression and approach-avoidance achievement goals of undergraduate students in China. Methods: 2473 full-time undergraduates reported their depression and achievement goals annually from the freshman to the senior year. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, correlation…

Free time in a working memory task often improves the recall performances of the to-be-remembered items. It is still debated whether the free-time effect in working memory is purely proactive, purely retroactive, or both proactive and retroactive. In the present study, we used the single-gap paradigm to explore this question. In Experiment 1, we…

There is no doubt about the importance of leadership and attachment styles on individual behavior and organizational outcomes. However, researchers have neglected to apply and integrate attachment concepts in management and organizational studies for years. One of the basic concepts in attachment theory is the secure base. In 2010, Coombe…

This study aimed to validate the Croatian version of the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire 10-item version (ACE-10) in a sample of 293 emerging adults (mean age 22 years old; 56.9% women). ACE-10 is a self-report retrospective questionnaire that assesses abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. Measures of depression, anxiety, stress,…

This study examined the role of parenting practices on preschoolers' secure exploratory behaviors; specifically, the extent to which parenting practices mediate the relationship between socio-economic status, perceived neighborhood support, parental depression and children's exploratory behaviors. The participants (n = 3268) were parents of young…
