We have limited knowledge as to whether the phenomenological differences between episodic memories, counterfactuals, and future projections show the same pattern across age groups and diverse samples. Here we compared the characteristics of these mental events, reported by younger and older participants in a Turkish (Study 1) and in an American…

Fleuchaus, Ethan; Kloos, Heidi; Kiefer, Adam W.; Silva, Paula L. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2020
Mistaken beliefs pose a barrier to science learning. For this reason, it is important to understand the circumstances in which they emerge and change. In the current paper, we apply complexity theory to shed light on the nature of mistaken beliefs. The strength of this approach lies in conceptualizing beliefs as dynamic stabilities, a well-defined…

Ghisletta, Paolo; Mason, Fabio; von Oertzen, Timo; Hertzog, Christopher; Nilsson, Lars-Göran; Lindenberger, Ulman – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2020
Growth models (GM) of the mixed-effects and latent curve varieties have become popular methodological tools in lifespan research. One of the major advantages of GM is their flexibility in studying individual differences in change. We scrutinized the change functions of GM used in five years of publications on cognitive aging. Of the 162…

Theodore, Rachel M.; Monto, Nicholas R.; Graham, Stephen – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Speech perception is facilitated by listeners' ability to dynamically modify the mapping to speech sounds given systematic variation in speech input. For example, the degree to which listeners show categorical perception of speech input changes as a function of distributional variability in the input, with perception becoming less…

In this study I examine the academic self-concept (ASC) of students who changed from vocational to academic tracking at the transition to upper secondary education in Germany. I ask (1) how their ASC differs to the ASC of their established peers in academic tracking, and (2) how their ASC is affected by the change in the learning environment.…

Jose A. Diaz; Steven M. Nelson; A. Alexander Beaujean; Adam E. Green; Michael K. Scullin – Creativity Research Journal, 2024
The compound Remote Associates Test (RAT) is a classic measure of creativity. Participants are shown three cue words (sore-shoulder-sweat) and asked to generate a word that connects them (cold). Theoretical views of RAT performance differ in the degree to which they conceptualize performance as depending on automatic spreading activation across…
