Final talk at #CogDev2023. @penelopebounia from @BirkbeckBabylab presents a mouse-tracking study investigating how curiosity affects goal-directed action in 3 different age-groups. Children’s preferences for new & unpredictable stimuli can be reflected in their movements.
Thank you Eva Reindl from @durham_uni for a super interesting talk on a work-in-progress investigating the role of causal information for sequence discrimination learning in 3-11 year-olds. #CogDev2023
Final set of talks here at #cogdev2023. First up is @LouLiv1 from @ucl and @IOE_London examining the links between executive function, motor skills, self-regulation and academic success in in a longitudinal study of 3-4 year-olds, and the influence of educational environment.
Next today at #cogdev2023, @harrietsmith15 from @PsychologyNTU discusses whether different warning strengths of consequences of misidentification can reduce voice ID errors in serial & sequential parades. VI is error-prone so important implications for ‘earwitness’ testimony.
Thank you @kayritchiepsych from @PsychLincoln for a super interesting talk about biases in face perception. Are we better at matching faces when they are from own or another heritage, age group and species? Implications for any situation requiring photo ID checking.
Day 3 at #CogDev2023. Fascinating first talk by Josie Briscoe from @BristolUni. Mouse-tracking was used in a picture-matching task to tap into semantic control in young adults. SC was observed, as previously with words, and plays a role in co-ordination of meaningful speech.
Finally this afternoon at #cogdev2023, @Ifi_Manitsa from @IMH_UoB, supported by @TPTgeneral, updates on a two-phase research project which aims to develop university guidance targeting the socio-emotional needs and inclusion of students with vision impairment in Higher Education.
Next up this afternoon at #CogDev2023 @norlinabsexton from @KingstonUni and @LabDeveloping discusses support professionals’ insights and experiences into the progression journey for autistic students starting uni, with a view to better enabling the transition. Important research!
Afternoon session on day 2 of #CogDev2023 opens with a very interesting talk by Saisanathani Sridharan from @UniWestLondon about factors contributing to cognitive function in urban-dwelling older adults in Sri Lanka. Important research to sustain independence and survival.
Final talk in this first session today at #CogDev2023. @lllaras from @HWPsych examines children’s performance in the trap-task.
Next up at #cogdev2023, Heather Simpson from @EdinburghUni examines the effects of school-entry age on children’s executive functions, self-regulation and socio-emotional development. Deferral appears to have some benefits.
Another super interesting talk at #CogDev2023. Paul Ibbotson examines the interaction between working memory and language development. Experimental results show that WM training improved children’s syntactic ability but not vice versa.
Fascinating talk by Amanda Seed introducing a new Rotating Grid Task to measure working memory manipulation in 3-7 year-olds. #CogDev2023
Day 2 at #CogDev2023, and great first talk by @GaiaScerif discussing an intervention to improve executive function and early years mathematics understanding via integrated activities.
Final talk of the day at #CogDev2023. @LindenBall discusses the impact of auditory distraction on insight problem solving. Does it affect performance, and are people aware of when it was beneficial or disruptive? So interesting!
