Journal of Individual Differences, 2013
The relationship between need for cognition (NFC) and measures of both personality and intelligence was investigated. Study 1 (N = 195) addressed recent concerns over item-polarity effects in NFC scales. With these effects removed, a reworded 34-item NFC scale showed evidence of multidimensionality.

Need for Cognition and the Process of Lie Detection
Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2010 Four experiments investigated the influence of Need for Cognition on the process of lie detection. According to the basic assumptions of dual process models, only higher Need for Cognition leads to the use of verbal information when making judgments of veracity.

ABSTRACTNeed for Cognition and Need for Cognitive Closure are two stable traits that can enlighten the understanding of inter‐individual variations in information behavior. Following a qualitative phase, an information behavior scale was developed using items related to the ways in which information is needed, sought, used and shared.

Three experiments tested the hypothesis that need for affect and need for cognition influence receptivity to affect- and cognition-based persuasive messages. Experiment 1 found that an affective message elicited more positive attitudes among individuals high in need for affect and low in need for cognition, whereas a cognitive message elicited more ...

Motivation needs cognition but is not just about cognition
Behavioral and Brain SciencesAbstract Murayama and Jach offer valuable suggestions for how to integrate computational processes into motivation theory, but these processes cannot do away with motivation altogether. Rewards are only rewarding because people want and like them – that is, because of motivation.

The Semantic Web needs more cognition [PDF]
Semantic Web, 2010 One of the key deficiencies of the Semantic Web is its lack of cognitive plausibility. We argue that by accounting for people's reasoning mechanisms and cognitive representations, the usefulness of information coming from the Semantic Web will be enhanced.

Need for Uniqueness, Need for Cognition, and Creativity
The Journal of Creative Behavior, 2003ABSTRACTThis study examined two neglected dispositional contributions to creativity, namely needs for uniqueness and cognition. Multiple measures of creativity were used including an inventory of creative accomplishments, preference for complex visual figures (a measure similar to the Barron‐Welsh Art Scale), unconventional rather than popular word ...

Measurement and Some Correlates of Need-Cognition
Psychological Reports, 1966A 15-scale true-false questionnaire, the Self-Other Test, Form C, was constructed to measure the dimensions of need-cognition, the need to know and understand. Intercorrelations of the scales showed a degree of overlap among some dimensions of need-cognition. Most of the scales reflecting these dimensions were reliably measured.

Assessing the Cognitive Complexity of Information Needs
Proceedings of the 2014 Australasian Document Computing Symposium, 2014Information retrieval systems can be evaluated in laboratory settings through the use of user studies, and through the use of test collections and effectiveness metrics. In a larger investigation we are exploring the extent to which individual user differences and behaviours can affect the scores generated by a retrieval system.Our objective in the ...
