A novel index to measure pre‐planning in the Tower of London task: Test–retest reliability and known‐group validity

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Tower of London (TOL) is a planning task frequently used in clinical settings and research. Planning and execution times are the most common outcome variables despite yielding lower effect sizes in clinical group comparisons and lower test–retest reliability than planning accuracy. Here, it is proposed that planning time be analysed not in

Pigeons, portals, and Pacman: Insightful problem solving and navigation using a touchscreen video game [PDF]

J Exp Anal Behav
Abstract Video games have been used in several studies to investigate problem solving. We present empirical findings from a redesigned touchscreen navigation “grid‐world” procedure resembling the classic video game PacMan (hereafter, “pacman”) played by pigeons. Our objective was to develop a procedure to study insight, similar to that of Epstein et al.
