Learning with worked-out problems in Manufacturing Technology: The effects of instructional explanations and self-explanation prompts on acquired knowledge acquisition, near and far transfer performance [PDF]

, 2011
In the present research, two different explanatory approaches – namely, instructional explanation and self-explanation prompts – were applied in worked-out-problem-based learning (learning with worked-out problems) in a computer-assisted instructional ...

Age-Related Differences in Pro-active Driving Behavior Revealed by EEG Measures

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Healthy aging is associated with a decline in cognitive functions. This may become an issue when complex tasks have to be performed like driving a car in a demanding traffic situation.

The Association between Motivation, Affect, and Self-regulated Learning When Solving Problems

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
Self-regulated learning (SRL) skills are essential for learning during school years, particularly in complex problem-solving domains, such as biology and math. Although a lot of studies have focused on the cognitive resources that are needed for learning

The physical activity experiences of men with serious mental illness: Three short stories [PDF]

, 2008
Objectives: Although a considerable amount of research has explored the effects of physical activity on mental health, the voices of people with mental illness have been largely excluded from published reports.

Is mental effort exertion contagious? [PDF]

Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2015
The presence of another person can influence task performance. What is, however, still unclear is whether performance also depends on what this other person is doing. In two experiments, two participants (A and B) jointly performed a Simon task, and we selectively manipulated the difficulty of the task for participant A only.

Random planar graphs and the London street network [PDF]

, 2009
In this paper we analyse the street network of London both in its primary and dual representation. To understand its properties, we consider three idealised models based on a grid, a static random planar graph and a growing random planar graph. Comparing

Mechanisms behind the testing effect-An empirical investigation of retrieval practice in meaningful learning-

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
The testing effect – more learning by testing as compared to restudying – is a well-established finding. A typical testing procedure in the context of meaningful learning comprises a recall task after an initial study phase.

Drive in sports: How mental fatigue affects endurance performance [PDF]

, 2018
Performance in endurance sports relies on athletes' drive, which is the sum of all factors pushing athletes to exert effort during exercise. Mental fatigue can influence endurance performance by decreasing athletes' drive to exercise.

ICA-Derived EEG Correlates to Mental Fatigue, Effort, and Workload in a Realistically Simulated Air Traffic Control Task

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Electroencephalograph (EEG) has been increasingly studied to identify distinct mental factors when persons perform cognitively demanding tasks. However, most of these studies examined EEG correlates at channel domain, which suffers the limitation that ...
