The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not the use of solid modeling software increases participants' success in solving a specified technical problem and how visualization affects their ability to solve a technical problem. Specifically, the study sought to determine if (a) students' visualization skills affect their problem…

Direct linkArendasy, Martin E.; Sommer, Markus; Gittler, Georg – Intelligence, 2010
Marked gender differences in three-dimensional mental rotation have been broadly reported in the literature in the last few decades. Various theoretical models and accounts were used to explain the observed differences. Within the framework of linking item design features of mental rotation tasks to cognitive component processes associated with…

Welcome, Suzanne E.; Chiarello, Christine – Brain and Cognition, 2008
Interaction between the cerebral hemispheres may allow both hemispheres to contribute their processing resources in order to cope efficiently with complex tasks [Banich, M. (1998). The missing link: the role of interhemispheric interaction in attentional processing. "Brain and Cognition," 36, 128-157]. The current study investigated whether the…

Macdonald, James S. P.; Lavie, Nilli – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2008
Although the perceptual load theory of attention has stimulated a great deal of research, evidence for the role of perceptual load in determining perception has typically relied on indirect measures that infer perception from distractor effects on reaction times or neural activity (see N. Lavie, 2005, for a review). Here we varied the level of…

McCabe, Donald L.; Feghali, Tony; Abdallah, Hanin – Research in Higher Education, 2008
Little work has been done on academic dishonesty in the Middle East. This research investigates the nature of the relationship between contextual factors and academic dishonesty using a sample from three private universities in Lebanon, and compares the results to a sample from seven large universities in the US. Using the basic model of McCabe et…

Pitt, Mark A.; Myung, Jay I.; Montenegro, Maximiliano; Pooley, James – Cognitive Science, 2008
A primary criterion on which models of cognition are evaluated is their ability to fit empirical data. To understand the reason why a model yields a good or poor fit, it is necessary to determine the data-fitting potential (i.e., flexibility) of the model. In the first part of this article, methods for comparing models and studying their…

Phenotypical Characteristics of Idiopathic Infantile Nystagmus with and without Mutations in "FRMD7"
Thomas, Shery; Proudlock, Frank A.; Sarvananthan, Nagini; Roberts, Eryl O.; Awan, Musarat; McLean, Rebecca; Surendran, Mylvaganam; Kumar, A. S. Anil; Farooq, Shegufta J.; Degg, Chris; Gale, Richard P.; Reinecke, Robert D.; Woodruff, Geoffrey; Langmann, Andrea; Lindner, Susanne; Jain, Sunila; Tarpey, Patrick; Raymond, F. Lucy; Gottlob, Irene – Brain, 2008
Idiopathic infantile nystagmus (IIN) consists of involuntary oscillations of the eyes. The familial form is most commonly X-linked. We recently found mutations in a novel gene "FRMD7" (Xq26.2), which provided an opportunity to investigate a genetically defined and homogeneous group of patients with nystagmus. We compared clinical features and eye…

Roberts, Jalynn Glenn – ProQuest LLC, 2009
The purpose of this study was to investigate students' perceptions of services, interactions, and experiences in the College of Education and Psychology at a research-intensive university in the deep South. Through the use of a survey instrument, data were collected from the university's College of Education and Psychology students during the…

Scofield, Jason; Hernandez-Reif, Maria; Keith, Anna Beth – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2009
Two studies used a new paradigm to examine preschool children's (i.e., 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds) word learning across multiple sense modalities. In Study 1 (n = 60), children heard a word for an object that they touched but did not see, while word learning was examined using objects that were seen but not touched. In Study 2 (n = 60), children…

Malhotra, Paresh; Coulthard, Elizabeth J.; Husain, Masud – Brain, 2009
Recent models of human posterior parietal cortex (PPC) have variously emphasized its role in spatial perception, visuomotor control or directing attention. However, neuroimaging and lesion studies also suggest that the right PPC might play a special role in maintaining an alert state. Previously, assessments of right-hemisphere patients with…

MacSweeney, Mairead; Brammer, Michael J.; Waters, Dafydd; Goswami, Usha – Brain, 2009
Hearing developmental dyslexics and profoundly deaf individuals both have difficulties processing the internal structure of words (phonological processing) and learning to read. In hearing non-impaired readers, the development of phonological representations depends on audition. In hearing dyslexics, many argue, auditory processes may be impaired.…

Smith, Welby – Media and Methods, 1979
Notes that the ability to analyze the media is linked directly to the way that images are projected and to the channels through which they are received. Contends that a story heard affects a person differently than does a story seen. (FL)

Huston, Daniel C.; Garland, Eric L.; Farb, Norman A. S. – Journal of Applied Communication Research, 2011
Mindfulness, an ancient spiritual practice, is becoming an increasingly popular component of communication courses, training individuals to reserve judgment in their dealings with others. However, the effects of mindfulness in communication courses are not well researched. We compared students taking an introductory communication course that…

Peer reviewedMcGurk, Harry; Jahoda, Gustav – Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 1975
Tries to unravel some of the problems concerning the previous finding that increasing the number of depth cues in pictures has a depressing effect on spatial accuracy of three dimensional reconstruction of pictures. Evidence does not support a deficiency in perceiving pictorial depth in African children. (AM)
