Object recognition ability predicts category learning with medical imagesCognitive Research: Principles and Implications -
Conor J. R. Smithson, Quentin Eichbaum, Isabel Gauthier
AbstractWe investigated the relationship between category learning and domain-general object recognition ability (o). We assessed this relationship in a radiological context, using a category learning test in which participants judged whether white blood cells were cancerous. In study 1, Bayesian evidence negated a relationship between ... hiện toàn bộ
The interactive functional biases of manual, language and attention systemsCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - - 2022
Deborah J. Serrien, Louise O’Regan
AbstractHemispheric lateralisation is a fundamental principle of functional brain organisation. We studied two core cognitive functions—language and visuospatial attention—that typically lateralise in opposite cerebral hemispheres. In this work, we tested both left- and right-handed participants on lexical decision-making as well as on symmetry detection by means o...... hiện toàn bộ
Attentional disengagements in educational contexts: a diary investigation of everyday mind-wandering and distractionCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 2 Số 1 - Trang 1-20 - 2017
Unsworth, Nash, McMillan, Brittany D.
The present study examined everyday attentional disengagements in educational contexts. Undergraduate students completed various cognitive ability measures in the laboratory and recorded everyday mind-wandering and distraction in a diary over the course of a week. Participants reported mind-wandering and being distracted both in class and while studying and there were a number of different subtype...... hiện toàn bộ
Expensive seems better: The price of a non-effective drug modulates its perceived efficacyCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 8 - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Marcos Díaz-Lago, Fernando Blanco, Helena Matute
Previous studies have shown that the price of a given product impacts the perceived quality of such product. This finding was also observed in medical contexts, showing that expensive drugs increase the placebo effect compared to inexpensive ones. However, addressing a drug's efficacy requires making causal inferences between the drug and the healing. These inferences rely on the contingency betwe...... hiện toàn bộ
Vai trò của nỗ lực tập trung lại trong mối quan hệ giữa động lực, sự quan tâm và tư duy lang thang: Một góc độ khác biệt cá nhân Dịch bởi AI Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 8 - Trang 1-16 - 2023
Hong He, Yunyun Chen, Ting Li, Hui Li, Xuemin Zhang
Nghiên cứu đáng kể cho thấy có mối liên hệ giữa tư duy lang thang và mức độ động lực, sự quan tâm bị giảm sút. Trong các giai đoạn tư duy lang thang, các cá nhân có thể cố gắng để định hướng lại sự chú ý của họ về nhiệm vụ hiện tại (được gọi là nỗ lực tập trung lại). Dựa trên giả thuyết về kiểm soát nguồn lực, chúng tôi đã giả định rằng ảnh hưởng của sự quan tâm và động lực đối với tư duy lang tha...... hiện toàn bộ

Removing opportunities to calculate improves students’ performance on subsequent word problemsCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 4 - Trang 1-13 - 2019
Karen B. Givvin, Veronika Moroz, William Loftus, James W. Stigler
In two studies we investigated whether removing opportunities to calculate could improve students’ subsequent ability to solve similar word problems. Students were first asked to write explanations for three word-problems that they thought would help another student understand the problems. Half of the participants explained typical word problems (i.e., problems with enough information to make cal...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial ability contributes to memory for delayed intentionsCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 5 - Trang 1-10 - 2020
Veit Kubik, Fabio Del Missier, Timo Mäntylä
Most everyday activities involve delayed intentions referring to different event structures and timelines. Yet, past research has mostly considered prospective memory (PM) as a dual-task phenomenon in which the primary task to fulfill PM intentions is realized within an ongoing secondary task. We hypothesized that these simplified simulations of PM may have obscured the role of spatial relational ...... hiện toàn bộ
The hazards of perception: evaluating a change blindness demonstration within a real-world driver education courseCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 4 - Trang 1-16 - 2019
Daniel O. A. Gunnell, Melina A. Kunar, Danielle G. Norman, Derrick G. Watson
Overconfidence in one’s driving ability can lead to risky decision-making and may therefore increase the accident risk. When educating people about the risks of their driving behavior, it is all too easy for individuals to assume that the message is not meant for them and so can be ignored. In this study we developed and assessed the effect of a road safety demonstration based around the phenomeno...... hiện toàn bộ
New approaches to the analysis of eye movement behaviour across expertise while viewing brain MRIsCognitive Research: Principles and Implications - Tập 3 - Trang 1-14 - 2018
Emily M. Crowe, Iain D. Gilchrist, Christopher Kent
Brain tumour detection and diagnosis requires clinicians to inspect and analyse brain magnetic resonance images. Eye-tracking is commonly used to examine observers’ gaze behaviour during such medical image interpretation tasks, but analysis of eye movement sequences is limited. We therefore used ScanMatch, a novel technique that compares saccadic eye movement sequences, to examine the effect of ex...... hiện toàn bộ
