Predicting Learning: Understanding the Role of Executive Functions in Children's Belief Revision Using Bayesian Models

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent studies suggest that learners who are asked to predict the outcome of an event learn more than learners who are asked to evaluate it retrospectively or not at all. One possible explanation for this “prediction boost” is that it helps learners engage metacognitive reasoning skills that may not be spontaneously leveraged, especially for ...

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hunter‐gatherers faced the survival threat of confusing edible mushrooms with their poisonous twins, imposing selection pressure on those who failed to detect subtle visual differences. Grounded in the ancestral priorities framework, which posits that the human mind is adapted to handle prehistoric challenges, we investigated whether humans ...
