Beyond the Adult Mind: A Developmental Framework for Predictive Processing in Infancy

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Predictive Processing has been proposed as the single unifying computation underlying all of cognition, and proponents argue that all psychological phenomena can be explained as consequences of this principle. This theoretical framework has inspired many cognitive scientists and neuroscientists, but it currently has no developmental mechanism ...

Quantitative Assessment of Mesoscale Cellular Order and Organization in the Mouse Hippocampus

Hippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The hippocampus is characterized by a stereotypical macroscopic structure, where the nuclei are densely and heterogeneously packed among different subregions of the hippocampus. Despite the fact that tissue‐specific cellular organization has been implicated in neural function, it has been technically challenging to quantitatively analyze ...

Slime Mould Memristors [PDF]

, 2014
In laboratory experiments we demonstrate that protoplasmic tubes of acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum show current versus voltage profiles consistent with memristive systems and that the effect is due to the living protoplasm of the mould. This

Not all collaboration benefits from competition: Collaboration modes in a computational thinking game

British Journal of Educational Technology, Volume 57, Issue 6, Page 1471-1497, November 2026.
Abstract Digital game‐based learning often leverages social dynamics to enhance engagement, yet the interplay between collaborative structures and competitive pressures remains complex. This study investigated different collaboration modes and how they interact with competition to influence computational thinking (CT) learning, group metacognition and ...
