Imai-Matsumura, Kyoko; Schultz, David – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2022
The "first-grade problem" of the lack of concentration, listening, and following of instruction has been widely identified among Japanese kindergarten students. To promote their executive functioning and self-regulation to prevent this issue, we developed the Social Thinking and Academic Readiness Training (START) program. The…

Patton, Colleen E.; Wickens, Christopher D.; Clegg, Benjamin A.; Noble, Kayla M.; Smith, C. A. P. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Previous research suggests people struggle to detect a series of movements that might imply hostile intentions of a vessel, yet this ability is crucial in many real world Naval scenarios. To investigate possible mechanisms for improving performance, participants engaged in a simple, simulated ship movement task. One of two hostile behaviors were…

Zou, Zhenfei; Zhao, Wei; Li, Miao – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
This study investigated executive function deficits among Chinese primary school children with word reading deficit and specific reading comprehension deficit. Working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility were examined among children with Word Reading Deficit (WRD), children with Specific Reading Comprehension Deficit (S-RCD) and…

Waring, Rebecca; Rickard Liow, Susan; Dodd, Barbara; Eadie, Patricia – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: The conversational speech of most children can be understood by people outside the family by the time they reach 4 years. However, for some children, speech sound disorders (SSDs) persist into their early school years, and beyond, despite adequate hearing, oromotor function, and language learning opportunities. One explanation for…

Vezne, Rabia; Sardohan Yildirim, Emel – Southeast Asia Early Childhood, 2022
The Individuals' experiences and memories about people with special needs affect their attitudes, behaviours and perceptions towards these individuals in the following years. This study aims to discover pre-school teacher candidates' early memories about people with special needs and understand the effect of these early memories on teacher…

Spruhan, Helen; Niolaki, Georgia; Vousden, Janet; Terzopoulos, Aris; Masterson, Jackie – Journal of Educational Research, 2022
The association of phonological and lexical-semantic processes with spelling ability in children has received scant research interest even though uncovering such associations can increase our understanding of literacy development. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 42 6- and 8-year-old children in the southeast of Ireland. The children…

Dingemanse, Gertjan; Goedegebure, André – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of speech recognition performance, working memory capacity (WMC), and a noise reduction algorithm (NRA) on listening effort as measured with pupillometry in cochlear implant (CI) users while listening to speech in noise. Method: Speech recognition and pupil responses (peak dilation, peak latency,…

Nichols, Bryan E.; Liu, Annie – Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, 2022
Starting pitch selection--whether intentional or habitual or otherwise--has been theorized to vary according to multiple variables. The purpose of this study was to explore starting pitch selection in undergraduate nonmusic major singers by using four well known songs and nonsinging tasks. Participants were actively singing in a college choir and…

Gordon, Rebecca; Santana De Morais, Danila; Whitelock, Emily; Mukarram, Arzoo – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Background: Developmental research provides considerable evidence of a strong relationship between verbal and visuospatial working memory (WM) and mathematics ability across age groups. However, little is known about how components of WM (i.e., short-term storage, processing speed, the central executive) might relate to mathematics sub-categories…

Kuzmicová, Anežka; Cremin, Teresa – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2022
Fiction, more than expository text, nurtures intimate connections between text and the reader's life experiences. This dimension of reader response is underexplored in relation to children. Adapting methods from Empirical Literary Studies to educational research objectives, the authors employed the concept of 'remindings', i.e. reminiscing…

Gao, Zaifeng; Li, Jiaofeng; Wu, Jinglan; Dai, Alessandro; Liao, Huayu; Shen, Mowei – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Working memory (WM) has a limited capacity; however, this limitation can be mitigated by selecting individual items from the set currently held in WM for prioritization. The selection mechanism underlying this prioritization ability is referred to as the focus of attention (FOA) in WM. Although impressive progress has been achieved in recent…

Stenbäck, Victoria; Marsja, Erik; Hällgren, Mathias; Lyxell, Björn; Larsby, Birgitta – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The study aimed to assess the relationship between (a) speech recognition in noise, mask type, working memory capacity (WMC), and inhibitory control and (b) self-rated listening effort, speech material, and mask type, in older adults with and without hearing impairment. It was of special interest to assess the relationship between WMC,…

A recent Registered Replication Report (RRR) of the development of verbal rehearsal during serial recall revealed that children verbalized at younger ages than previously thought, but did not identify sources of individual differences. Here, we use mediation analysis to reanalyze data from the 934 children ranging from 5 to 10 years old from the…

Cruz, Sara; Cruz, Raquel; Alcón, Alicia; Sampaio, Adriana; Merchan-Naranjo, Jessica; Rodríguez, Elisa; Parellada, Mara; Carracedo, Ángel; Fernández-Prieto, Montse – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Dysexecutive syndrome has been consistently reported in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Particularly, impairments have been documented in working memory, inhibition, and mental flexibility. However, the relationship between executive impairments and intellectual functioning is far from clear in this population. This…

Malling, Anne Sofie Bøgh; Juul, Holger; Gejl, Anne Kaer; Damsgaard, Linn; Wienecke, Jacob; Nielsen, Anne-Mette Veber – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
In Denmark there is an ongoing trend towards a more ambitious literacy instruction in the first school year (Kindergarten). This calls for a clarification of present-day reading levels, and for a profile of the students who become readers while attending the semi-formal literacy program. The present study examined the extent to which a group of…
