This project sets out to investigate whether the language we speak influences the way we think – also known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis of linguistic relativism (Whorf, 1939). More specifically, we aim to build on previous findings which suggest that time perception may differ depending on the language spoken (Casasanto et al., 2004, 2007). Does ...
A aprendizagem estratégica e autorregulada pode ser fomentada pelo ensino de estratégias para o aprender a aprender. Assim, o presente artigo, fruto de uma revisão sistemática de literatura, teve como objetivo mapear pesquisas sobre as concepções de estratégias de aprendizagem e aprendizagem autorregulada, além dos relatos de uso dessas estratégias...
The rapid and relentless pace of technological advancement over recent years has had a profound impact on the realm of education. This dynamic transformation has paved the way for a host of new possibilities and innovations that are reshaping the educational landscape. One of the most noteworthy developments within this technological revolution is ...
We introduce a novel integration of real-time, predictive eye-gaze tracking models into a multimodal dialogue system tailored for remote health assessments. This system is designed to be highly accessible requiring only a conventional webcam for video input along with minimal cursor interaction and utilizes engaging gaze-based tasks that can be per...
Stigmatization, hostility, and violence towards the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community have increased sharply during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is important to conduct research to promote understanding of the effects of such stigmatization on the AAPI community. Accordingly, the present study used a combined minority stress and int...
Metacognitive calibration—the capacity to accurately self-assess one’s performance—forms the basis for error detection and self-monitoring and is a potential catalyst for conceptual change. Limited brain imaging research on authentic learning tasks implicates the lateral prefrontal and anterior cingulate brain regions in expert scientific reasoning...
Introduction: Early childhood educators (ECEs) play a critical role in supporting the development of young children’s executive functions (EF). EF, in turn, underpins lifelong resilience and well-being. Unfortunately, many ECEs report adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) that may compound high stress levels associated with an emotionally and physic...
Du point de vue du philosophe Friedrich Nietzsche, il n’y a pas de réalité qui existe en soi, pas de fait brut, pas de réalité absolue : tout ce que nous définissons comme étant la réalité n’est, en fait, que le résultat de processus d’interprétation qui nous sont propres. Or, les données stockées sur les systèmes d’information ne sont souvent rien...
While infants understand the meaning of some words before their first birthday (Tincoff & Jusczyk, 1999; Bergelson & Swingley, 2012; Campbell & Hall, 2022), vocabulary growth begins slowly with a significant upsurge around the end of the second year (Reznick & Goldfield, 1992). As early as 18 months, infants also have the beginnings of a lexical-se...
Interpolated tests benefit retention of both tested material and material learned afterward. One proposed mechanism for the potentiating effect of testing involves the learner gleaning metacognitive information from tests regarding how well the material is being learned, curbing overconfidence and influencing future encoding strategies. The current...
