This study investigated when the Bayesian cue combination of piloting and path integration occurs in human homing behaviors. The Bayesian cue combination was hypothesized to occur in estimating the home location or self-localization. In Experiment 1, the participants learned the locations of 5 objects (1 located at the learning position) in the…

As part of a broader information literacy agenda, academic libraries are interested in advancing algorithmic literacy. Folk theories of algorithmic decision-making systems, such as recommender systems, can provide insights into designing and delivering enhanced algorithmic literacy initiatives. Users of the Spotify music recommendation systems…

Dual-route theories of reading posit that a sublexical reading mechanism that operates serially and from left to right is involved in the orthography-to-phonology computation. These theories attribute the masked onset priming effect (MOPE) and the phonological Stroop effect (PSE) to the serial left-to-right operation of this mechanism. However,…

Educated adults solve simple addition problems primarily by direct memory retrieval, as opposed to by counting or other procedural strategies, but they report using retrieval substantially less often with problems in written-word format (four = eight) compared with digit format (4 = 8). It was hypothesized that retrieval efficiency is relatively…

This study examined the hypothesis of superior quantification abilities of persons with high functioning autism (HFA). Fourteen HFA individuals (mean age: 15 years) individually matched with 14 typically developing (TD) participants (gender, chronological age, full-scale IQ) were asked to quantify as accurately and quickly as possible…

This Teacher Resource Manual (TRM) is designed to help teachers implement the Mathematics 20, 23, and 24 courses. The TRM is a support document that provides helpful information to classroom teachers. An overview of the Course of Studies for Mathematics 20/23 and 24 is provided at the beginning of each course section in the TRM. The overview…

The Mathematics 16 program provides for the development of essential concepts, skills, and attitudes required for effective computation and problem solving. The program is activity-based, and addresses the need for students to be able to transfer and apply specific mathematical concepts and skills to more generalized situations in everyday life…
