Julia Carbone; Susanne Diekelmann – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) is a noninvasive tool to manipulate memory consolidation during sleep. TMR builds on the brain's natural processes of memory reactivation during sleep and aims to facilitate or bias these processes in a certain direction. The basis of this technique is the association of learning content with sensory cues, such…

Limor Shtoots; Asher Nadler; Roni Partouche; Dorin Sharir; Aryeh Rothstein; Liran Shati; Daniel A. Levy – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Evidence implicating theta rhythms in declarative memory encoding and retrieval, together with the notion that both retrieval and consolidation involve memory reinstatement or replay, suggests that post-learning theta rhythm modulation can promote early consolidation of newly formed memories. Building on earlier work employing theta neurofeedback,…

Amrita Bains; Annaliese Barber; Tau Nell; Pablo Ripollés; Saloni Krishnan – Developmental Science, 2024
Relatively little work has focused on why we are motivated to learn words. In adults, recent experiments have shown that intrinsic reward signals accompany successful word learning from context. In addition, the experience of reward facilitated long-term memory for words. In adolescence, developmental changes are seen in reward and motivation…

Julia Schindler; Tobias Richter; Raymond A. Mar – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2024
Generated information is better recognized and recalled than information that is read. This generation effect has been replicated several times for different types of material, including texts. Perhaps the most influential demonstration is by McDaniel, Einstein, Dunay, and Cobb ("Journal of Memory and Language," 1986, 25(6), 645-656;…

Naziye Günes-Acar; Ali I. Tekcan – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2024
Visual system is crucial to autobiographical memory. Research tended to show that blind adults may compensate for the loss of visual information in retrieval of their autobiographical memories. Much less is known about how blind children's autobiographical memory develops in the absence of visual information. Using cue-word methodology, 36 sighted…

Willett, Ciara L.; Rottman, Benjamin M. – Cognitive Science, 2021
The ability to learn cause-effect relations from experience is critical for humans to behave adaptively -- to choose causes that bring about desired effects. However, traditional experiments on experience-based learning involve events that are artificially compressed in time so that all learning occurs over the course of minutes. These paradigms…

Michalinos Zembylas – Policy Futures in Education, 2025
This essay examines Jean Améry's account of resentment as protest against oblivion and indifference and explores its implications in invoking a political pedagogy that attempts to find moral and political virtue in resentment. Exploring the pedagogical implications of resentment through the lens of Améry's account reveals something important about…

Wenjing Wang; Mengqi Xiong; Binbin Guo; Rongchuan Huang; Mengxue Li; Mengyao Li; Xue Feng; Tianyu Qin; Zixu Wei – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2025
Working memory is a hot topic in the field of cognitive neuroscience and has attracted the attention of many researchers in the field of education. In recent years, it has been found that the cognitive ability related to spatial information in working memory can positively affect STEM academic performance, which is highly important for educational…

Emiko Tsutsumi; Yiming Guo; Ryo Kinoshita; Maomi Ueno – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Knowledge tracing (KT), the task of tracking the knowledge state of a student over time, has been assessed actively by artificial intelligence researchers. Recent reports have described that Deep-IRT, which combines item response theory (IRT) with a deep learning method, provides superior performance. It can express the abilities of each student…

Shultz, Brianna; Farkash, Abigail; Collins, Bailey; Mohammadmirzaei, Negin; Knox, Dayan – Learning & Memory, 2022
NMDA receptors (NMDARs) and AMPA receptors (AMPARs) in amygdala nuclei and the dorsal hippocampus (dHipp) are critical for fear conditioning. Enhancements in synaptic AMPAR expression in amygdala nuclei and the dHipp are critical for fear conditioning, with some studies observing changes in AMPAR expression across many neurons in these brain…

Gibbons, Jeffrey A.; Dunlap, Spencer; Friedmann, Emma; Dayton, Clare; Rocha, Gabriela – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Unpleasant affect fades faster than pleasant affect, and this phenomenon is referred to as the fading affect bias (FAB). The FAB is moderated and mediated by many variables, including rehearsal and memory specificity, and researchers have emphasized the importance of memory for the FAB, but research has not evaluated the link of the FAB to…

Hernández Finch, Maria E.; Trammell, Beth; Hulse, Asia R.; Finch, William H.; Wildrick, Aimee; Floyd, Elizabeth F.; Pittenger, Jenna; McIntosh, David E. – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Understanding the relationship between executive functioning and its connection to working memory and adaptive functioning can inform planning and employment efforts. This study explored the relationship between memory and adaptive functioning with a sample of Autistic youths/young adults. Participant mean age was 21.3 (SD = 3.0). Of the 22…

Brian J. Birdsell – Journal for the Psychology of Language Learning, 2023
It is well documented that exercise plays a critical role in maintaining physical health. More recently, a growing body of research has begun to focus on the mental benefits of exercise ranging from reducing depression to enhancing various cognitive abilities like memory and attention. These abilities are paramount for learning to occur, and thus,…

Research on eyewitness identification often involves exposing participants to a simulated crime and later testing memory using a lineup. We conducted a systematic review showing that pre-event instructions, instructions given before event exposure, are rarely reported and those that are reported vary in the extent to which they warn participants…

Schaper, Marie Luisa; Bayen, Ute J.; Hey, Carolin V. – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Metamemory monitoring, study behavior, and memory are presumably causally connected. When people misjudge their memory, their study behavior should be biased accordingly. Remedying "metamemory illusions" should debias study behavior and improve memory. One metamemory illusion concerns source memory, a critical aspect of episodic memory.…
