How to test cognitive theory with fMRI [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 The objective of this chapter is to provide a guide to using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to inform cognitive theory. This is, of course, a daunting task, as the premise itself - that fMRI data can inform cognitive theory - is still actively debated. Below, we touch on this debate as a means of framing our guide. In particular, we argue

Dynamic modulation of frontal theta power predicts cognitive ability in infancy
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2020 Cognitive ability is a key factor that contributes to individual differences in life trajectories. Identifying early neural indicators of later cognitive ability may enable us to better elucidate the mechanisms that shape individual differences ...

Infant neural sensitivity to eye gaze depends on early experience of gaze communication
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2018 A fundamental question in functional brain development is how the brain acquires specialised processing optimised for its individual environment. The current study is the first to demonstrate that distinct experience of eye gaze communication, due to the

CogGPT: Unleashing the Power of Cognitive Dynamics on Large Language Models [PDF]
arXivCognitive dynamics are pivotal to advance human understanding of the world. Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) reveal their potential for cognitive simulation. However, these LLM-based cognitive studies primarily focus on static modeling, overlooking the dynamic nature of cognition.

Reliability and Factor Structure of the Westside Test Anxiety Scale among University Students
Online Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2019 The Westside Test Anxiety Scale (WTAS) is a widely-used screening instrument for assessing test anxiety impairments in educational settings. However, psychometric properties of this measure have not been established adequately.

Knowledge Management in the Companion Cognitive Architecture [PDF]
arXivOne of the fundamental aspects of cognitive architectures is their ability to encode and manipulate knowledge. Without a consistent, well-designed, and scalable knowledge management scheme, an architecture will be unable to move past toy problems and tackle the broader problems of cognition.

DiagnosticsBackground/Objectives: Although specific language impairment (SLI) was thought to be a language impairment, recent studies suggest that it is also associated with domain-general and nonverbal deficits such as deficits in nonverbal working memory, visual ...

Continual Learning of Multiple Cognitive Functions with Brain-inspired Temporal Development Mechanism [PDF]
arXivCognitive functions in current artificial intelligence networks are tied to the exponential increase in network scale, whereas the human brain can continuously learn hundreds of cognitive functions with remarkably low energy consumption. This advantage is in part due to the brain cross-regional temporal development mechanisms, where the progressive ...

Visual search performance in infants associates with later ASD diagnosis
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2018 An enhanced ability to detect visual targets amongst distractors, known as visual search (VS), has often been documented in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Yet, it is unclear when this behaviour emerges in development and if it is specific to ASD.
