Direct linkScherer, Aaron M.; Windschitl, Paul D.; O'Rourke, Jillian; Smith, Andrew R. – Cognition, 2012
People must often engage in sequential sampling in order to make predictions about the relative quantities of two options. We investigated how directional motives influence sampling selections and resulting predictions in such cases. We used a paradigm in which participants had limited time to sample items and make predictions about which side of…

Weiermann, Brigitte; Meier, Beat – Cognition, 2012
The purpose of the present study was to investigate incidental sequence learning across the lifespan. We tested 50 children (aged 7-16), 50 young adults (aged 20-30), and 50 older adults (aged >65) with a sequence learning paradigm that involved both a task and a response sequence. After several blocks of practice, all age groups slowed down…
