Gibeau, Rose-Marie; Maloney, Erin A.; Béland, Sébastien; Lalande, Daniel; Cantinotti, Michael; Williot, Alexandre; Chanquoy, Lucile; Simon, Jessica; Boislard-Pépin, Marie-Aude; Cousineau, Denis – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
This study investigates the correlates of statistics anxiety. Considering that statistics anxiety and spatial anxiety have been separately correlated with related constructs (e.g., mathematics anxiety, academic performance, etc.), the possibility that spatial anxiety plays a role in statistics anxiety is explored. When facing statistics or…

Scheibling-Sève, Calliste; Gvozdic, Katarina; Pasquinelli, Elena; Sander, Emmanuel – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2022
Proportional reasoning is a key topic both at school and in everyday life. However, students are often misled by their preconceptions regarding proportions. Our hypothesis is that these limitations can be mitigated by working on alternative ways of categorizing situations that enable more adequate inferences. Multiple categorization triggers…

Luxembourger, Christophe; Fischer, Jean-Paul; Tazouti, Youssef – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
A live video was used to study the development of visual self-recognition in a cross-sectional sample of 152 typically developing French children aged between 15 months to 6 years. Three reactions to a mark placed on the child's cheek without their knowledge were studied: the touch of the mark with their hand, the ocular responsiveness to the mark…

Stéphanie Chouteau; Benoît Lemaire; Catherine Thevenot; Jasinta Dewi; Karine Mazens – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
It is commonly accepted that repeatedly using mental procedures results in a transition to memory retrieval, but the determinant of this process is still unclear. In a 3-week experiment, we compared two different learning situations involving basic additions, one based on counting and the other based on arithmetic fact memorization. Two groups of…

Rattat, Anne-Claire; Chevalier, Nicolas – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2020
The present study investigated the role of executive functions in the development of two aspects of timing: temporal reproduction and comparison. Children aged 7 and 10 years and young adults were asked to either reproduce target durations (i.e., reproduction task) or judge the similarity of two target durations (i.e., comparison task). These…

Knutsen, Dominique; Brunellière, Angèle – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
During dialogue, people reach mutual comprehension through the production of feedback markers such as "yeah" or "okay." The purpose of the current study was to determine if mental load affects feedback production, as there is currently no consensus as to how mental load constrains the way in which dialogue partners reach mutual…

Dufour, Sophie; Grainger, Jonathan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
In this study we asked whether nonwords created by transposing two phonemes (/biks[open-mid back rounded vowel]t/) are perceived as being more similar to their base words (/bisk[open-mid back rounded vowel]t/) than nonwords created by substituting two phonemes (/bipf[open-mid back rounded vowel]t/). Using the short-term phonological priming and a…

Grasso, Camille L.; Ziegler, Johannes C.; Mirault, Jonathan; Coull, Jennifer T.; Montant, Marie – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
The processing of time activates a spatial left-to-right mental timeline, where past events are "located" to the left and future events to the right. If past and future words activate this mental timeline, then the processing of such words should interfere with hand movements that go in the opposite direction. To test this hypothesis, we…

Pattamadilok, Chotiga; Welby, Pauline; Tyler, Michael D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Auditory speech appears to be linked to visual articulatory gestures and orthography through different mechanisms. Yet, both types of visual information have a strong influence on speech processing. The present study directly compared their contributions to speech processing using a novel word learning paradigm. Native speakers of French, who were…

Roux, Sebastien; McKeeff, Thomas J.; Grosjacques, Geraldine; Afonso, Olivia; Kandel, Sonia – Cognition, 2013
Written production studies investigating central processing have ignored research on the peripheral components of movement execution, and vice versa. This study attempts to integrate both approaches and provide evidence that central and peripheral processes interact during word production. French participants wrote regular words (e.g. FORME),…

Wen, Yun; Mirault, Jonathan; Grainger, Jonathan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
In 2 ERP experiments participants read 4-word sequences presented for 200 ms (RPVP paradigm) and were required to decide whether the word sequences were grammatical or not. In Experiment 1, the word sequence consisted of either a grammatically correct sentence (e.g., "she can sing now") or an ungrammatical scrambled sequence (e.g.,…

Fernández-López, María; Mirault, Jonathan; Grainger, Jonathan; Perea, Manuel – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Skilled readers have developed a certain amount of tolerance to variations in the visual form of words (e.g., CAPTCHAs, handwritten text, etc.). To examine how visual distortion affects the mapping from the visual input onto abstract word representations during normal reading, we focused on a single type of distortion: letter rotation.…

Gonthier, Corentin; Ambrosi, Solène; Blaye, Agnès – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Cognitive control can be triggered by explicit or implicit events; it has been proposed that these two possibilities tap into dissociable mechanisms. In this study, we investigate this idea by testing whether young children, who struggle with explicitly triggered control, can demonstrate proportion congruency effects--which are based on implicit…

Grainger, Jonathan; Beyersmann, Elisabeth – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Two masked priming experiments investigated the impact of prime lexicality (word vs. nonword) and the pseudo-morphological structure of prime stimuli (pseudosuffixed vs. nonsuffixed) on embedded word priming effects. In the related prime conditions, target words were embedded at the beginning of prime stimuli and were followed either by a…

Pegado, Felipe; Grainger, Jonathan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
The present study examined transposed-word effects in a same-different matching task with sequences of 5 words. The word sequences were presented one after the other, each for 400 ms, the first in lowercase and the second in uppercase. The first sequence, the reference, was either a grammatically correct sentence or a scrambled ungrammatical…
