Oliveira, Cátia M.; Henderson, Lisa M.; Hayiou-Thomas, Marianna E. – Cognitive Science, 2023
The ability to extract patterns from sensory input across time and space is thought to underlie the development and acquisition of language and literacy skills, particularly the subdomains marked by the learning of probabilistic knowledge. Thus, impairments in procedural learning are hypothesized to underlie neurodevelopmental disorders, such as…

Weissman, Daniel H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Although domain-specificity is prevalent in models of human cognition, its presence is not always easy to verify. For example, according to one prominent model, experiencing conflict from an incongruent distractor in a Stroop-like task triggers an upregulation of domain-specific control that facilitates the resolution of the same, but not a…

Tatz, Joshua R.; Undorf, Monika; Peynircioglu, Zehra F. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
According to the principle of inverse effectiveness (PIE), weaker responses to information in one modality (i.e., unisensory) benefit more from additional information in a second modality (i.e., multisensory; Meredith & Stein, 1986). We suggest that the PIE may also inform whether perceptual fluency affects judgments of learning (JOLs). If…

Steinbrenner, Jessica R.; Hume, Kara; Odom, Samuel L.; Morin, Kristi L.; Nowell, Sallie W.; Tomaszewski, Brianne; Szendrey, Susan; McIntyre, Nancy S.; Yücesoy-Özkan, Serife; Savage, Melissa N. – FPG Child Development Institute, 2020
Autism is currently one of the most prominent and widely discussed human conditions. Its increased prevalence has intensified the demand for effective educational and therapeutic services, and intervention science is providing mounting evidence about practices that positively impact outcomes. The purpose of this report is to describe a set of…
