Niziolek, Caroline A.; Parrell, Benjamin – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Speakers use auditory feedback to guide their speech output, although individuals differ in the magnitude of their compensatory response to perceived errors in feedback. Little is known about the factors that contribute to the compensatory response or how fixed or flexible they are within an individual. Here, we test whether manipulating…

Ellinghaus, Ruben; Giel, Sophie; Ulrich, Rolf; Bausenhart, Karin M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Perception is driven not only by current stimulation but also by previous sensory experience, which may serve as a perceptual prior for stimulus processing. A possible mechanism underlying this phenomenon is formalized in the internal reference model, which assumes that humans rely on an internal reference that updates continuously by integrating…

O'Brien, Gabrielle; Yeatman, Jason D. – Developmental Science, 2021
Competing theories of dyslexia posit that reading difficulties arise from impaired visual, auditory, phonological, or statistical learning mechanisms. Importantly, many theories posit that dyslexia reflects a cascade of impairments emanating from a single "core deficit". Here we report two studies evaluating core deficit and…

Zhang, Xujin; Wu, Yunan Charles; Holt, Lori L. – Cognitive Science, 2021
Cognitive systems face a tension between stability and plasticity. The maintenance of long-term representations that reflect the global regularities of the environment is often at odds with pressure to flexibly adjust to short-term input regularities that may deviate from the norm. This tension is abundantly clear in speech communication when…

Thorley, Craig – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2021
There are many situations in which a person must accurately estimate a stranger's age. For example, a salesperson must accurately estimate the age of a stranger who wishes to purchase age-restricted goods. Information from a stranger's eyes and hair can indicate their likely age. Here, two experiments examined whether adult participants' accuracy…

Denton, David W.; Ellis, Arthur K. – Educational Studies, 2023
Educators manage student readiness for learning by applying models of instruction. The most common model used, however, is imprecise about cognitive operations. One way educators address this issue is with reflection, but reflection means many different things. An approach for narrowing reflection is to focus on metacognition. Literature has shown…

Georgiou, Georgios P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The present study aims to investigate the identification of native vowel categories by adult individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and estimate their reaction times in both normal and whisper registers; their responses were compared with those of typically developing individuals. The results demonstrated that there was no deficit for…

Offstein, Evan; Kentrus, Ryan; Dufresne, Ron; Wassell, Stacy – Journal of Workplace Learning, 2023
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to better understand the "black box" of how coaching is enacted and how it unfolds in practice. Indeed, some of the mixed results concerning the efficacy of executive coaching appear anchored to the confusion and surrounding ambiguity of the episodic and processual nature of coaching. In this…

Luo, Tianrui; Huang, Liqiang; Tian, Mi – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The retro-cue effect (RCE) describes the finding that participants' working memory performance is enhanced when their attention is directed to the to-be-tested position by a spatial cue during the retention interval. Here, we explore the relationship between RCE and working memory consolidation. A sequential display retro-cue paradigm is used for…

Muffato, Veronica; Miola, Laura; Pellegrini, Marilina; Pazzaglia, Francesca; Meneghetti, Chiara – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
When learning an environment from virtual navigation people gain knowledge about landmarks, their locations, and the paths that connect them. The present study newly aimed to investigate all these domains of knowledge and how cognitive factors such as visuospatial abilities and wayfinding inclinations might support virtual passive navigation. A…

Hadjipanayi, Veronica; Ludwig, Casimir J. H.; Kent, Christopher – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
In many real-life contexts, observers are required to search for targets that are rarely present (e.g. tumours in X-rays; dangerous items in airport security screenings). Despite the rarity of these items, they are of enormous importance for the health and safety of the public, yet they are easily missed during visual search. This is referred to…

Díaz-Lago, Marcos; Blanco, Fernando; Matute, Helena – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Previous studies have shown that the price of a given product impacts the perceived quality of such product. This finding was also observed in medical contexts, showing that expensive drugs increase the placebo effect compared to inexpensive ones. However, addressing a drug's efficacy requires making causal inferences between the drug and the…

Köster, Massimo; Buabang, Eike K.; Ivancir, Tina; Moors, Agnes – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
People often engage in unhealthy eating despite having an explicit goal to follow a healthy diet, especially under certain conditions such as a lack of time. A promising explanation from the value accumulation account is that food choices are based on the sequential consideration of the values of multiple outcomes, such as health and taste…

James Negen – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
One model of numeric perception is a density-area mechanism: a process that estimates both density and area of an array, then multiplies them to create an estimate of number. One line of evidence that supports this is the surprising numeric Ebbinghaus illusion: smaller context circles lead to greater perceived number than larger context circles,…

Janna Traci Salari – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Within the last five years, more than two-thirds of the United States have passed state laws specific to dyslexia, yet there is very limited empirical research that investigates the voices of parents and/or caregivers (Woodcock, 2020). While the science of reading is at the forefront of conversation in education and legislation in Florida and…
