Buffington, Joshua; Demos, Alexander P.; Morgan-Short, Kara – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
Evidence for the role of procedural memory in second language (L2) acquisition has emerged in our field. However, little is known about the reliability and validity of the procedural memory measures used in this research. The present study (N = 119) examined the reliability and the convergent and discriminant validity of three assessments that…

Frazee, Leah M.; Scharfenberger, Adam R. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
Research on elementary students' reasoning on patterning problems with pictorial representations has illustrated that students can visualize structure in patterns in different ways. In this paper, we offer a characterization of students' spatial structures and numerical structures and explain how the link between these two structures can support…

La Valle, Chelsea; Chenausky, Karen; Tager-Flusberg, Helen – Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 2021
Background and aims: Prior work has examined how children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder who are minimally verbal use their spoken language abilities during interactions with others. However, social communication includes other aspects beyond speech. To our knowledge, no studies have examined how minimally verbal children and…

Clarke, Doug – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2021
This article focuses on the unintended consequences of within-class ability grouping on primary students of mathematics. I review relevant research, including promising approaches to teaching in mixed ability settings. I then outline four ways in which these groupings are typically structured, discussing some of the issues that arise with each of…

Andrew David McKay Jr. – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The purpose of this study is to explore the statistical nature of the linguistic interdependence hypothesis (Cummins, 1976, 2017) in the spring of 2nd grade of students in foreign language immersion programs. Specifically, the interdependent relationship between L2 language proficiency levels and L1 reading academic performance in an environment…

Michelle L. Rivers; Charles J. Fitzsimmons; Susan R. Fisk; John Dunlosky; Clarissa A. Thompson – Grantee Submission, 2021
Prior research has found gender differences in spatial tasks in which men perform better, and are more confident, than women. Do gender differences also occur in people's confidence as they perform number-line estimation, a common spatial-numeric task predictive of math achievement? To investigate this question, we analyzed outcomes from six…

Browne, Dillon T.; Dadashadeh, Sharon; Wade, Mark; Jenkins, Jennifer M. – Developmental Psychology, 2019
This study examined the association between observed cognitive sensitivity (CS) during family interactions and children's receptive vocabulary for older and younger siblings. Maternal and sibling CS was considered and associations were explored at the family-wide (between-family) and child-specific (within-family) levels of analysis. The…

Rønneberg, Vibeke; Torrance, Mark – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
Spelling accuracy and time course was investigated in a sample of 100 Norwegian 6th grade students completing a standardized spelling-to-dictation task. Students responded by keyboard with accurate recordings of response-onset latency (RT) and inter-keypress interval (IKI). We determined effects of a number of child-level cognitive ability…

McNicholas, Patrick J.; Floyd, Randy G. – Canadian Journal of School Psychology, 2017
The Reynolds Intellectual Assessment Scales, Second Edition (RIAS-2; Reynolds & Kamphaus, 2015) is an intelligence test for those aged 3 to 94 years. It contains eight subtests designed to assess general intelligence, verbal and nonverbal intelligence, memory, and processing speed. The two subtests targeting processing speed are new to the…

Kirby; Bahar Keceli-Kaysili; Tiffany G. Woynaroski – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Early differences in sensory responsiveness may contribute to difficulties with communication among autistic children; however, this theory has not been longitudinally assessed in infants at increased familial versus general population-level likelihood for autism (Sibs-autism vs. Sibs-NA) using a comprehensive battery of sensory responsiveness and…

Nadav Aridan; Michal Bernstein-Eliav; Dana Gamzo; Maya Schmeidler; Niv Tik; Ido Tavor – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Anatomy studies are an essential part of medical training. The study of neuroanatomy in particular presents students with a unique challenge of three-dimensional spatial understanding. Virtual Reality (VR) has been suggested to address this challenge, yet the majority of previous reports have implemented computer-generated or imaging-based models…

Musa Adekunle Ayanwale; Jamiu Oluwadamilare Amusa; Adekunle Ibrahim Oladejo; Funmilayo Ayedun – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2024
The study focuses on assessing the proficiency levels of higher education students, specifically the physics achievement test (PHY 101) at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). This test, like others, evaluates various aspects of knowledge and skills simultaneously. However, relying on traditional models for such tests can result in…

Sarah N. Lang; Shinyoung Jeon; Erin Tebben – Early Education and Development, 2024
Family-program partnerships in early care and education have the potential to influence young children's development through multiple pathways. Guided by the Head Start (HS) Parent, Family, and Community Engagement (PFCE) framework, the current study uses data from the 2014 HS Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) to examine the direct, and…

Anton Bastian; Gabriele Kaiser; Dennis Meyer; Johannes König – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
Teacher noticing, a situation-specific part of teachers' professional competence, has gained much importance in the past two decades. The construct is believed to play a crucial role in the transfer of knowledge and skills into professional teaching performance. However, there is little empirical evidence on how the length of teachers' teaching…
