Developing Pre‐Service Teachers’ Digital Self‐Efficacy Through Self‐Directed Language Learning

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contemporary online language learning typically involves the use of multiple digital platforms. Drawing on digital self‐efficacy and self‐directed learning theories, this study investigates the self‐directed language learning experience of 19 pre‐service teachers as they navigate the affordances of two platforms, Duolingo and ChatGPT.

Decoding and vocabulary improvements mediate sustained gains in reading comprehension: Evidence from a randomised controlled trial of a multicomponent reading intervention

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Reading comprehension is critical for academic success, yet many children with persistent decoding difficulties struggle to achieve it. This study examined whether a multicomponent literacy intervention is effective in improving reading comprehension and whether any gains in comprehension are mediated by improvements in word reading and ...

Mini social cognition and emotional assessment: Diagnostic performance and neural correlates in behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed at validating the Mini Social Cognition and Emotional Assessment (Mini‐SEA) in a German cohort of mildly impaired behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) patients and healthy controls. The Mini‐SEA comprises the Facial Emotion Recognition Test (FERT) and the Faux Pas Test (FPT) measuring Theory of Mind (ToM) abilities in ...

Exploring Theory of Mind abilities in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...

Preservation of positive emotion recognition in patients with multiple sclerosis: Artefact related to methodological issues or real feature of the disorder?

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prior studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) suggest preserved recognition of positive emotions despite deficits for negative ones, but this dissociation may reflect methodological limitations (valence‐asymmetry: positive‐valence being limited to happiness/joy in basic‐emotion sets). This study tested whether emotion–recognition deficits in MS are
