Lag Effects in L2 Phonetic Training: Longer Intersession Intervals Compensate for Auditory Individual Differences

The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In cognitive psychology, longer intersession intervals are thought to enhance long‐term retention (i.e., lag effects). Recently, scholars have begun to test the generalizability of the lag effect to L2 vocabulary and grammar acquisition. Following their step, the present study not only replicated the lag effect but also provided a more fine ...

Legal Clarity and the Rule of Law: A Global Experimental Study of Consistency in Administrative Decision‐Making

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Laws often contain linguistically complex features that increase cognitive processing demands and weaken comprehension. We extend this argument to bureaucratic decision‐making by proposing that reduced legal clarity decreases the consistency of administrative decisions.

Modeling Effects of Rumination on Free Recall Using ACT‐R

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ruminative thinking, characterized by a recurrent focus on negative and self‐related thought, is a key cognitive vulnerability marker of depression and, therefore, a key individual difference variable. This study aimed to develop a computational cognitive model of rumination focusing on the organization and retrieval of information in memory ...

Finding the Words: How Does the Aging Brain Process Language? A Focused Review of Brain Connectivity and Compensatory Pathways

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract As people age, there is a natural decline in cognitive functioning and brain structure. However, the relationship between brain function and cognition in older adults is neither straightforward nor uniform. Instead, it is complex, influenced by multiple factors, and can vary considerably from one person to another.

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

Topics 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 ...
