Khatin-Zadeh, Omid; Yazdani-Fazlabadi, Babak – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2023
This article discusses two mechanisms through which understanding static mathematical concepts (basic and more advanced mathematical concepts) in terms of fictive motions or motion events enhance our understanding of these concepts. It is suggested that at least two mechanisms are involved in this enhancing process. The first mechanism enables us…

Robson, Samuel G.; Tangen, Jason M. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
People can fail to notice objects and events in their visual environment when their attention is engaged elsewhere. This phenomenon is known as inattentional blindness, and its consequences can be costly for important real-world decisions. However, not noticing certain visual information could also signal expertise in a domain. In this study, we…

Seda Sakarya; Gokhan Sengun; Serpil Pekdogan – Research in Pedagogy, 2023
This study aimed to determine the relationship between the visual literacy levels of children attending preschool education institutions and their rapid automatized naming skills. A total of 160 children, 77 girls, and 83 boys, aged 5-6 years, attending independent kindergartens, took part in the research. The "Personal Information…

Jesse Q. Sargent; Lauren L. Richmond; Devin M. Kellis; Maverick E. Smith; Jeffrey M. Zacks – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
Spatial memory is important for supporting the successful completion of everyday activities and is a particularly vulnerable domain in late life. Grouping items together in memory, or chunking, can improve spatial memory performance. In memory for desktop scale spaces and well-learned large-scale environments, error patterns suggest that…

Aina Casaponsa; M. Acebo García-Guerrero; Alejandro Martínez; Natalia Ojeda; Guillaume Thierry; Panos Athanasopoulos – Language Learning, 2024
"Taza" in Spanish refers to cups and mugs in English, whereas glass refers to different glass types in Spanish: "copa" and "vaso." It is still unclear whether such categorical distinctions induce early perceptual differences in speakers of different languages. In this study, for the first time, we report symmetrical…

Verena Steinhof; Anna Schroeger; Roman Liepelt; Laura Sperl – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2025
While decades of research have deepened our understanding of time perception, the perception of (manipulated) video speed has been relatively underexplored but is gaining interest with recent technological advances. This study systematically investigated human perception of "video speed," "clip duration" and "original…

Shane Kimbro – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Implementing the delayed measure feature in music education has transformed the learning experience for students that are learning to read music. By combining cognitive engagement, visual perception, and real-time performance, this approach enhances students' ability to recognize, process, and perform intricate rhythm and note patterns…

Andres H. Mendez; Chen Yu; Linda B. Smith – Developmental Science, 2024
Traditionally, the exogenous control of gaze by external saliencies and the endogenous control of gaze by knowledge and context have been viewed as competing systems, with late infancy seen as a period of strengthening top-down control over the vagaries of the input. Here we found that one-year-old infants control sustained attention through head…

Ivan Tomic; Paul M. Bays – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
Population coding models provide a quantitative account of visual working memory (VWM) retrieval errors with a plausible link to the response characteristics of sensory neurons. Recent work has provided an important new perspective linking population coding to variables of signal detection, including d-prime, and put forward a new hypothesis: that…

Darren R. Hocking; Xiaoyun Sun; Kristina Haebich; Hayley Darke; Kathryn N. North; Giacomo Vivanti; Jonathan M. Payne – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Atypical habituation to repetitive information has been commonly reported in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) but it is not yet clear whether similar abnormalities are present in Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). We employed a cross-syndrome design using a novel eye tracking paradigm to measure habituation in preschoolers with NF1, children with…

Ezgi Bilgin; Sezin Öner – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2024
We investigated the factors associated with subjective temporal distance of pandemic-related events in a sample of healthcare workers. A total of 257 healthcare workers were asked to recall two COVID-19 pandemic-related events that impacted them the most at the beginning of the pandemic (April--May 2020), and rated event centrality,…

Ebersbach, Mirjam; Guschlbauer, Jana Antonia; Rummer, Ralf – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
We examined whether visual disfluency, as elicited by presenting text on flickering slides, affects learning positively and the global judgment of learning (JOL) negatively. Participants (N = 202 in Experiment 1, between-subjects design; N = 53 in Experiment 2, within-subjects design) saw in an online session multiple slides including textual…

Rachel Lara Green; Sarah Joanne Carrington; Daniel Joel Shaw; Klaus Kessler – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
As many autistic individuals report mentalizing difficulties into adulthood, the current pre-registered study investigated potential differences in belief reasoning and/or visual perspective taking between autistic and non-autistic adults. The Seeing-Believing task was administered to 121 gender-balanced participants online (57 with a self-…

Branch, Fallon; Lewis, Allison JoAnna; Santana, Isabella Noel; Hegdé, Jay – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Camouflage-breaking is a special case of visual search where an object of interest, or target, can be hard to distinguish from the background even when in plain view. We have previously shown that naive, non-professional subjects can be trained using a deep learning paradigm to accurately perform a camouflage-breaking task in which they report…

Andrew Lynn; John Maule; Dima Amso – Child Development, 2024
Children (N = 103, 4-9 years, 59 females, 84% White, c. 2019) completed visual processing, visual feature integration (color, luminance, motion), and visual search tasks. Contrast sensitivity and feature search improved with age similarly for luminance and color-defined targets. Incidental feature integration improved more with age for…
