Even though successful navigation is vital for survival, individuals vary widely in their navigation skills. Researchers have examined the correlates of such variation using a wide variety of paradigms. However, we know little about the relation among the paradigms used, and their validity for real-world behaviors. In this study, we assessed 94…

Decolonial scholars endeavour to evade the construction of another singularity by rejecting the allure to universalise a single definition of decoloniality and difference, which may claim narratives and praxis that would liberate all peoples but would re-enact other forms of irreflexive violence. For this rationale, we draw on our loci of…

Five-to-six-year-olds' abilities to detect and solve ambiguities in spoken language have been found to be a predictor of their later reading abilities in first-to-third grade. However, the origins of this relationship remain unclear. Success in ambiguity detection may be reflective of overall language attainment, which varies with socioeconomic…

In the age of artificial intelligence (AI), automation, and algorithm-driven decision-making, human roles, skills, and educational priorities are undergoing an unprecedented transformation. As machines become increasingly capable of performing routine, analytical, and even creative tasks, the fundamental question arises: What remains uniquely…

In this study, we seek to contribute to a broader understanding of the processes and contexts that lead to inflated judgments of cognitive ability in human-computer partnerships. We conducted a within-subject experiment design study with 164 college students in order to explore the impact of the search experience on cognitive self-esteem (CSE).…

Autistic youth demonstrate an overestimation of competencies when compared with neurotypical (NT) peers. Research has also shown NT males/boys tend to overestimate their competencies more than NT females/girls. This study assessed sex differences in autistic youths' overestimations on academic self-perception variables. Notably, 127 (70 male)…

Introduction: This study aims to determine whether student profiles, based on cognitive, intrapersonal, and interpersonal competencies from the NRC2012 model, change depending on the type of higher education institution and the time spent in higher education by Chilean higher education students. Method: Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was used to…

Identifying antecedents of achievement motivation is important because they are critical to students' academic success, life and college satisfaction, and student retention. Previous research has identified a relationship between intellectual abilities and achievement motivation. However, it is still unknown whether relatively newer dimensions of…

Objective: This study aims to assess the role of continuous EEG (cEEG) background patterns and duration of cross-clamp time and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing cardiac surgery and its correlation with abnormal neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12-24 months on Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler…

Background: Information literacy supports individuals' academic abilities of critical thinking and reasoning which enable them to quickly grasp new ways of learning. It helps build long-term learning as it motivates and improves critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students mostly use applicable resources such as books and the internet to…

With the policy to integrate as many young people as possible into mainstream education, schools and local authorities across Scotland endeavour to create the best conditions for learning and support the needs of all learners. As increased awareness of the importance of well-designed, agile learning spaces evolves, there is ongoing investment in…

The goal of this study was to identify the onset and magnitude of prediction of early cognition to adult socioeconomic outcomes. Specifically, we were interested in examining which cognitive skills measured at 15, 24, 36, and 54 months predict educational attainment and salary at age 26. Data (N = 1364, 52% male) included a diverse sample (76%…

The frequency of home spatial activities (e.g., puzzles and blocks) correlates with young children's spatial skills, but causal evidence is limited. We addressed this issue by comparing the effects of a parent-led intervention aimed at increasing spatial activities to an active control targeting narrative activities (preregistered:…

Understanding the structure and function of proteins is crucial for students as it provides fundamental insights into one of the central building blocks of life. Yet, undergraduate students struggle to make sense of proteins and apply knowledge about why structure affects function. Here, we expand on an existing typology of common protein…

Background: Interpreting cognitive assessment results for individuals from indigenous communities can be complex. Factors such as culture, language, and education may influence results. Although there is research regarding the cognitive assessment of typically functioning individuals from indigenous communities there is limited information on…
