Bertrand Schneider; Tonya Bryant – Cognition and Instruction, 2024
The goal of this paper is to bring new insights to the study of social learning processes by designing measures of collaboration using high-frequency sensor data. More specifically, we are interested in understanding the interplay between moments of collaboration and cooperation, which is an understudied area of research. We collected a multimodal…

Hermes, Mary Rose; Engman, Mel M.; Meixi,; McKenzie, James – Cognition and Instruction, 2023
Indigenous language reclamation efforts are pushing academic ideas of what language is, in order to be accountable to Indigenous epistemologies. Simultaneously, as our Indigenous languages grow, we (academics) are pushed to grow beyond the boundaries of disciplines. Categories of "language" and "land" have been segregated by…

Storozuk, Andie; Retanal, Fraulein; Maloney, Erin A. – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Comparison shopping is good financial practice, but situations involving numbers and computations are challenging for consumers with math anxiety. We asked North Americans (N = 256) to select the better deal between two products differing in volume and price. As predicted, math anxiety was negatively related to performance on this Price Comparison…

Pickering, Jayne; Adelman, James S.; Inglis, Matthew – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Previous research suggests that the Approximate Number System (ANS) allows people to approximate the cardinality of a set. This ability to discern numerical quantities may explain how meaning becomes associated with number symbols. However, recently it has been argued that ANS representations are not directly numerical, but rather are formed by…

Prather, Richard – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Mastery of mathematics depends on the people's ability to manipulate and abstract values such as negative numbers. Knowledge of arithmetic principles does not necessarily generalize from positive number arithmetic to arithmetic involving negative numbers (Prather & Alibali, 2008, https://doi.org/10.1080/03640210701864147). In this study, we…

James Negen – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
One model of numeric perception is a density-area mechanism: a process that estimates both density and area of an array, then multiplies them to create an estimate of number. One line of evidence that supports this is the surprising numeric Ebbinghaus illusion: smaller context circles lead to greater perceived number than larger context circles,…

Rebecca Peretz-Lange; Keri Carvalho; Paul Muentener – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
Striking weight biases emerge early in development, yet cognitive-developmental research has largely ignored weight as a social characteristic of interest. How do children conceive of weight? In particular, do children hold essentialist views of weight (i.e. do they view weight as natural, stable, inductively meaningful, and reflective of people's…

The Role of Domain-General and Domain-Specific Skills in the Identification of Arithmetic Strategies
Eaves, Joanne; Attridge, Nina; Gilmore, Camilla – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2022
Individuals solve arithmetic problems in different ways and the strategies they choose are indicators of advanced competencies such as adaptivity and flexibility, and predict mathematical achievement. Understanding the factors that encourage or hinder the selection of different strategies is therefore important for helping individuals to succeed…

Batashvili, Michael; Cipora, Krzysztof; Hunt, Thomas E. – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2022
Maths anxiety is common and refers to feelings of anxiety, fear and other negative emotions and thoughts in individuals when confronted with mathematical tasks or numerical information. Self-report measures of maths anxiety have been created, but the majority are in English and are not culturally relevant to all countries. This study aimed to…

Didino, Daniele; Brandtner, Matthias; Knops, André – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2022
In three experiments, we used a masked prime in a verification task to investigate the processing stages occurring during multiplication fact retrieval. We aimed to investigate the retrieval process by overlapping its execution with the processing of a masked prime consisting of a number. Participants evaluated the correctness of multiplication…

Siddiqui, Hasan; Rutherford, M. D. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Essentialism is the intuition that category membership relies on an invisible essence. Essentialist thinking about social categories is most evident in young children, while comparable methods do not reveal essentialist thinking about social groups in adult participants. However, previous work has found that essentialist thinking about gender was…

Xu, Yian; Burns, Megan; Wen, Fangfang; Thor, Emily Dahlgaard; Zuo, Bin; Coley, John D.; Rhodes, Marjorie – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Social categories allow us to make sense of the social world and generate predictions about novel encounters. Yet, how people use particular social categories varies by culture. The current study examined how social categorization varies across traditionally individualistic and collectivistic societies among young children and adults. Using a…

Williams, Katherine; Zax, Alexandra; Patalano, Andrea L.; Barth, Hilary – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Number line estimation (NLE) tasks are widely used to investigate numerical cognition, learning, and development, and as an instructional tool. Interpretation of these tasks generally involves an implicit expectation that responses are driven by the overall magnitudes of target numerals, in the sense that the particular digits conveying those…

Payir, Ayse; Heiphetz, Larisa – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Adults commonly conceptualize intentional harms as worse than accidental harms. We probed the developmental trajectory of this pattern and asked whether U.S. children (4 - to 7-year-olds) and adults expected other agents -- including another person and God -- to share their views. In contrast with some prior work, even the youngest children in the…

Nakamichi, Naoko – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
A food's visual features and testimony from others are important clues for children when making food choices. Children must integrate these two forms of information to make choices about food. The present study investigated children's food choices when these two clues are presented together. After confirming that children between the ages of…
