Despite its name, associative recognition is a paradigm thought to rely on memory recall. However, it remains unclear how associative information may be represented and retrieved from memory and what its relationship to other information, such as item memory, is. Here, we propose a computational model of associative recognition, where relational…

Subscore added value analyses assume invariance across test taking populations; however, this assumption may be untenable in practice as differential subdomain relationships may be present among subgroups. The purpose of this simulation study was to understand the conditions associated with subscore added value noninvariance when manipulating: (1)…

Unit-weight sum scores (UWSSs) are routinely used as estimates of factor scores on the basis of solutions obtained with the nonlinear exploratory factor analysis (EFA) model for ordered-categorical responses. Theoretically, this practice results in a loss of information and accuracy, and is expected to lead to biased estimates. However, the…

This predictive correlational study examined to what extent a relationship exists between the emotional intelligence of the staff in the information technology department's productivity and end-user satisfaction, as well as the quality of work done by those departments. Three universities were sampled for emotional intelligence, work productivity,…

In 2014, Macnamara, Hambrick, and Oswald published a meta-analysis of studies questioning the strength of the association between deliberate practice and performance. In this brief report, the correlation reported by Macnamara et al. (2014) is placed in the context of other well-known associations. Additionally, a re-analysis of the studies…

Background: While observational studies have established a connection between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and heightened risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the causal relationships are not well-defined. This study is designed to examine the causality between ASD, ADHD, and CVD risk as well…

Introduction: Persistence in treatment is important in balancing diabetes and preventing complications. ADHD impairs quality of life and functioning in many areas of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible association of ADHD and diabetes glycemic control among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: All data were…

This study aimed to (a) explore the perceived levels of English language self-efficacy, enjoyment, and anxiety among EFL learners and (b) test a hypothesized model investigating their interrelations and potential predictive effects on English Language Achievement (ELA). Using a quantitative, non-experimental correlational design, data were…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges as the development of computer systems and software that imitate human abilities and perform human-like tasks. Understanding what gifted students think about this system that includes deep cognitive abilities is considered important. Based on this premise, this study examines the perceptions of gifted students…

Understanding language requires readers and listeners to cull meaning from fast-unfolding messages that often contain conflicting cues pointing to incompatible ways of interpreting the input (e.g., "The cat was chased by the mouse"). This article reviews mounting evidence from multiple methods demonstrating that cognitive control plays…

Eye movement patterns and consistency during face recognition are both associated with recognition performance. We examined whether they reflect different mechanisms through EEG decoding. Eighty-four participants performed an old-new face recognition task with eye movement pattern and consistency quantified using eye movement analysis with hidden…

The goal of this study was to investigate the moderating effect of parental mediation in the longitudinal associations among cyberbullying bystanding, depression, subjective health complaints, and self-harm. Participants were 1,067 seventh and eighth graders (M age = 13.93; 50% female) from the suburbs of a large Midwestern city in the United…

Functional thinking is essential for maritime vocational college students, particularly when solving mathematical problems related to navigation safety. However, limited studies have explored functional thinking among vocational maritime students. This study aims to explore the functional thinking processes of maritime vocational college students…

Statistics anxiety is a prevalent form of anxiety experienced by students during statistics lectures or when conducting statistical analysis. This anxiety negatively impacts their performance and enjoyment of the subject. The present study investigates the relationship between lecturer support and undergraduate students' statistics anxiety, and…

The purpose of this study is to look at leadership styles that affect teacher retention. This literature review looks at empirical and nonempirical studies on effective leadership styles, communication, and teachers' support and how that correlates with teacher retention. This qualitative study looks at how teacher retention is affected by…
