Development, Suitability and Comprehensibility of a QR Code-Enabled Educational Package to Improve Self-Care Practices Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Multimethod Study in Iran. [PDF]

Health Expect
ABSTRACT Background Effective type 2 diabetes (T2DM) education must be culturally relevant and accessible to patients with varying literacy levels. In Iran, most materials lack locally tailored, multimedia‐enhanced guidance. Objective To develop a culturally tailored, QR code–enabled educational package for T2DM self‐care and perform a preliminary ...

Cloze, Frequency, Surprisal, or Plausibility? A Comparative Analysis of Predictors for Local Ambiguity Resolution. [PDF]

Cogn Sci
Abstract This study investigated the cognitive mechanisms underlying the processing of garden‐path sentences by examining the influence of verb/structural bias, cloze probability, surprisal, and plausibility. Using self‐paced reading with yes/no comprehension questions, we analyzed a structurally diverse set of 11 types of ambiguous and unambiguous ...

Probing Prediction-Related Processes in Language Using an EEG Word Stem Completion Paradigm. [PDF]

Psychophysiology
ABSTRACT Humans comprehend language rapidly, with active prediction of upcoming words as a key mechanism. Studies using sentences have documented facilitations in behavior and brain activity (N400) when people encounter predictable words, and brain responses (anterior positivity) specific to prediction violations.

Chinese Readers Process Word Class of Parafoveal Words During Sentence Reading. [PDF]

Cogn Sci
Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the parafoveal processing of word class in Chinese reading, focusing on how grammatical category consistency affects word recognition. The gaze‐contingent boundary paradigm was adopted in an eye‐tracking study. In each sentence, a parafoveal target word was replaced with three types of previews: identical

Assessment of Metatextual Awareness and its Prediction of Reading Comprehension

Psicologia, 2019
This study aimed to reveal evidence of the validity of the Assessment Questionnaire of Metatextual Awareness (QACM). The main objective was to verify whether metatextual awareness could predict reading comprehension, and the secondary objectives were: to
