This study explored age-related differences in the use of metacognitive judgment to allocate extra study time according to the perceived difficulty of a learning task. The task difficulty was varied by manipulating the encoding condition wh...
Ipsilateral printing in children's mirror-writing: a cause of specific learning disabilities? [0.03%]

Previous research has demonstrated that young children produce mirror-image letter-reversals when printing their names in a leftward direction from the midline or right margin of their writing paper. This ability is postulated to be an epip...

Studies have shown that bilingual individuals consistently outperform their monolingual counterparts on tasks involving executive control. The present paper reviews some of the evidence for this conclusion and relates the findings to the ef...
Consistency of sustained attention across modalities: comparing visual and auditory versions of the SART [0.03%]
跨模式持续注意力的一致性：比较视觉和听觉SART任务

Paul Seli et al.
We develop and assess an auditory version of an increasingly widely used measure of sustained attention, the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART). In two separate studies, the auditory SART generated slower response times and fewer e...
Predictability matters: on the stimulus-driven account of the multiple-cue effect [0.03%]

To examine the issue of whether attentional focus can split among noncontiguous locations, Wright and Richard (2003) used a multiple-cue display and found the validity effect for each of the multiple cues. However, they argued against the m...
The greater temporal acuity in the reminder task than in the 2AFC task is independent of standard duration and sensory modality [0.03%]
提醒任务中的时间辨别力优于两择一任务，独立于标准持续时间和感觉模态

The present study compared estimates of the difference limen (DL) from the reminder and the two-alternative forced-choice task (2AFC) task. Both tasks used exactly the same set of stimulus values and also the same adaptive method for estima...
Are word representations abstract or instance-based? Effects of spelling inconsistency in orthographic learning [0.03%]

In Experiment 1, 62 10-year-old children studied printed pseudowords with semantic information. The items were later represented in a different format for reading, with half of the items spelled in the same way as before and half displayed ...
Concreteness effects in short-term memory: a test of the item-order hypothesis [0.03%]
短期记忆中具体化效应的检验：项目顺序假说测试

Jaclynn Roche
The following experiments explore word length and concreteness effects in short-term memory within an item-order processing framework. This framework asserts order memory is better for those items that are relatively easy to process at the ...

We scrutinized the hypothesis that the distinctiveness of unrepeated stimuli yields an enhancement of their memorability, when contrasted with repeated stimuli. In three conditions of a variant of von Restorff's (1933) isolation paradigm, u...

Verbal feedback was used to alter balance efficacy to examine its effects on perceived and actual balance in young adults. Participants (N=61) completed a stance task, were randomized to either a high or low balance efficacy or control grou...
