Abu-Ghazalah, Rashid M.; Dubins, David N.; Poon, Gregory M. K. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2023
Multiple choice results are inherently probabilistic outcomes, as correct responses reflect a combination of knowledge and guessing, while incorrect responses additionally reflect blunder, a confidently committed mistake. To objectively resolve knowledge from responses in an MC test structure, we evaluated probabilistic models that explicitly…

Lago, Sol; Stone, Kate; Oltrogge, Elise; Veríssimo, João – Language Learning, 2023
Second language (L2) learners make gender errors with possessive pronouns. In production, these errors are modulated by the gender match between the possessor and possessee noun. We examined whether this so-called match effect extends to L2 comprehension by attempting to replicate a recent study on gender predictions in first language (L1) German…

Dillon, Thomas; Wells, Donald – English Teaching, 2023
This study examined effects of pronunciation training using automatic speech recognition technology on common pronunciation errors of Korean English learners. Participants were divided into two groups. One group was given instruction and training about the use of automatic speech recognition for pronunciation practice. The other group was not…

Ohood Swar; Mohammed Mohsen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Over the past few years, many studies have examined the cognitive processes of students when translating texts from one language to another. However, little is known about the cognitive processes of Arab translators when translating texts from their heritage language into English. This study aims to track the cognitive processes of students as…

Altuntas Gürsoy, Ilke – Cypriot Journal of Educational Sciences, 2020
While improving a learner's language skills during native language and foreign language teaching, the learner should also be taught language rules. Language rules can be taught via grammar topics. One of the grammar topics is case suffixes. Not using any or none of these affixions causes a break in the semantic connection between words and a…

Fitzgerald, Colleen E. – Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2020
Purpose: A variety of pediatric clinical populations have difficulty with the correct use of pronouns. The available clinical literature labels these errors in inconsistent terms leading to great variation in how treatment objectives are worded. The purpose of this tutorial is to encourage a shift in pronoun assessment and treatment planning…

Loehr, Abbey M.; Fazio, Lisa K.; Rittle-Johnson, Bethany – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Background: Committing errors is a common part of the learning process, and adults are more likely to correct errors that they can recall. However, preadolescent children's recall of previous errors (i.e., memory for errors) may be limited. Aims: We examined children's ability to recall their past errors and tested whether recalling an error aids…

Zhang, Mengting; Hupbach, Almut – Learning & Memory, 2020
In a 2014 issue of "Learning & Memory," Reagh and Yassa proposed that repeated encoding leads to semanticization and loss of perceptual detail in memory. We presented object images one or three times and tested recognition of targets and corresponding similar lures. Correct lure rejections after one in comparison to three exposures…

Petscher, Yaacov; Compton, Donald L.; Steacy, Laura; Kinnon, Hannah – Annals of Dyslexia, 2020
Models of word reading that simultaneously take into account item-level and person-level fixed and random effects are broadly known as explanatory item response models (EIRM). Although many variants of the EIRM are available, the field has generally focused on the doubly explanatory model for modeling individual differences on item responses.…

Bultena, Sybrine; Danielmeier, Claudia; Bekkering, Harold; Lemhöfer, Kristin – Language Learning, 2020
Internal error monitoring as reflected by the error-related negativity (ERN) component can give insight into the process of learning a second language (L2). Yet, early stages of learning are characterized by high levels of uncertainty, which obscures the process of error detection. We examine how uncertainty about L2 syntactic representations,…

Kueser, Justin B.; Leonard, Laurence B. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Studies have shown that children with typical development (TD) respond to frequency and predictability when repeating nonidiomatic multiword sequences (e.g., "go wash your hands"). We extended these findings by explicitly examining the interaction between frequency and predictability in a repetition task for children with…

Tutak, Tayfun; Süzen, Ahmet Burak; Inan, Ibrahim Enam – Participatory Educational Research, 2020
The aim of this study is to determine the mistakes made by secondary school mathematics teachers in the operation priority (Order-of-Operations) and to offer solutions to these problems. The research, which is conducted during 2018-2019 academic year in the central district of Elazig and is limited to fifteen mathematics teachers who had different…

Durst, Susan; Kaschner, Scott R. – PRIMUS, 2020
We explore student performance on True-False assessments with statements in the conditional form "If P then Q" in order to better understand how students process conditional logic and to see whether logical misconceptions impede students' ability to demonstrate mathematical knowledge. We administered an online assessment to a population…

Lisa M. Domke; María A. Cerrato; Elizabeth H. Sanders; Michael Vo – Language and Education, 2025
Because word problems present mathematical information through a scenario, they are language-intensive and require mathematical and reading comprehension skills to solve them. In addition, they are linguistically complex, which makes them challenging for all learners, especially multilingual learners. Given the rising number of dual-language…

Rodriguez, Nuria; Acha, Joana – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
This study presents the results of a cross-sectional reading and spelling assessment conducted among 118 Spanish children in 3rd, 4th and 5th grade. The first aim was to explore whether children's use of orthographic knowledge was modulated by lexical variables--word frequency and orthographic neighborhood--or sublexical…
