He, Huizhong; Zhang, Yunxiang; Su, Mengmeng; Yi, Lixin; Lv, Jiayi – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2023
Deaf and hearing adults perceive faces differently. This study investigates whether these differences are acquired during childhood development. We characterized facial perception in deaf and hearing children aged 7-17 using a perceptual discrimination task. Configural and featural information was manipulated in the eye and mouth facial regions.…

Wong, Simpson W. L.; Li, Wang-On; Cheung, Anisa – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
Children with developmental language disorder (DLD) have consistently showed poor performances in reading comprehension. Extending from previous studies that presented pure-text, this study aims to test the performances of graphic novel reading. We tested 24 Chinese children who have been diagnosed as DLD and 24 typical readers matched with age…

Langley, Matthew D.; Van Houghton, Kaitlin; McBeath, Michael K.; Lucca, Kelsey – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Adults have a vertical attention bias (VAB) that directs their focus toward object tops and scene bottoms. This is consistent with focusing attention on the informative aspects and affordances of the environment, and generally favoring a downward gaze. The smaller size of children, combined with their relatively limited interactions with objects…

Harris, Anthony M.; Eayrs, Joshua O.; Lavie, Nilli – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Highly-automated technologies are increasingly incorporated into existing systems, for instance in advanced car models. Although highly automated modes permit non-driving activities (e.g. internet browsing), drivers are expected to reassume control upon a 'take over' signal from the automation. To assess a person's readiness for takeover,…

Lange-Küttner, Christiane; Collins, Chenelle L.; Ahmed, Rahima K.; Fisher, Lauren E. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The relation between perceptual and conceptual knowledge is a longstanding research question in developmental psychology. Here we tested children's dependence on figurative information with a reaction time/accuracy task. A sample of 151 children from 5 to 10 years were assessed from two multicultural and multiracial schools in the London (UK)…

Vecchione, Francesca; Giancola, Marco; Palmiero, Massimiliano; Boccia, Maddalena; D'Amico, Simonetta; Piccardi, Laura – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2023
Visuospatial abilities are associated with children's performance in mathematics. However, little is known about the contribution of visual perception, especially during preadolescence. Here, we aimed to test the relationship between visual perception, mathematics and field-dependent/independent cognitive style (FDI). We also focused on…

Ke, Shih-Chiang; Gupta, Ankit; Lo, Yu-Hui; Ting, Chih-Chung; Tseng, Philip – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
The FedEx logo makes clever use of figure-ground ambiguity to create an "invisible" arrow in the background space between "E" and "x". Most designers believe the hidden arrow can convey an unconscious impression of speed and precision about the FedEx brand, which may influence subsequent behavior. To test this…

Feng, Shuyuan; Wang, Qiandong; Hu, Yixiao; Lu, Haoyang; Li, Tianbi; Song, Ci; Fang, Jing; Chen, Lihan; Yi, Li – Developmental Science, 2023
Autistic children (AC) show less audiovisual speech integration in the McGurk task, which correlates with their reduced mouth-looking time. The present study examined whether AC's less audiovisual speech integration in the McGurk task could be increased by increasing their mouth-looking time. We recruited 4- to 8-year-old AC and nonautistic…

Gökçe Ketizmen; Hakan Keles – Design and Technology Education, 2023
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the divergent thinking abilities of first-year architecture students who are currently enrolled in a course focused on thinking in architecture. The statistical analysis of student's studio works with Wallach Kogan's divergent thinking pre/post-tests results demonstrated that the post-test score…

Tom Mercer; Anna-Maria Markova – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
While visual working memory has a short lifetime, residual representations can persist and disrupt currently maintained information. This phenomenon is known as proactive interference (PI), and the present study investigated whether the representations underpinning item-specific PI lose details over time. This would be expected if the memories…

Huachizaca, Viviana; Yambay-Armijos, Karen – Journal of Applied Research in Higher Education, 2023
Purpose: This quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of audio-visual and written feedback (AVF + WF) on undergraduate students versus only receiving WF in the context of an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) online classroom during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study used the…

Provazza, Serena; Carretti, Barbara; Giofrè, David; Adams, Anne-Marie; Montesano, Lorena; Roberts, Daniel – Annals of Dyslexia, 2022
The extent to which impaired visual and phonological mechanisms may contribute to the manifestation of developmental dyslexia across orthographies of varying depth has yet to be fully established. By adopting a cross-linguistic approach, the current study aimed to explore the nature of visual and phonological processing in developmental dyslexic…

Schulz, S. E.; Stevenson, R. A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Sensory issues are highly prevalent in autism and previous findings support a relationship between questionnaires of sensitivity and autistic symptoms and traits, whereas studies that examine this relationship through behavioural assessments of sensitivity are less consistent. The current study explores these differences and suggests that…

Samuel, Steven; Eacott, Madeline J.; Cole, Geoff G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
What happens when an observer takes an agent's visual perspective of a scene? We conducted a series of experiments designed to measure what proportion of adults take a "stimulus-centered" rather than "agent-centered" approach to a visual perspective taking task. Adults were presented with images of an agent looking at a number…

Brumberger, Eva – Journal of Visual Literacy, 2022
Eye tracking has been utilized for decades to study perceptual processes in a range of fields, and it has proven particularly useful for studying how the viewing behaviours of experts and novices within a field differ from one another. This article reports on a study that uses eye tracking to examine patterns in the ways that visual communication…
