The interplay between unexpected events and behavior in the development of explicit knowledge in implicit sequence learning
Some studies in implicit learning investigate the mechanisms by which implicitly acquired knowledge (e.g., learning a sequence of responses) becomes...
-
Interleaved practice benefits implicit sequence learning and transfer
Compared to blocked practice, interleaved practice of different tasks leads to superior long-term retention despite poorer initial acquisition...

Testing delayed, gradual, and temporary treatment effects in randomized single-case experiments: A general response function framework
Randomization tests represent a class of significance tests to assess the statistical significance of treatment effects in randomized single-case...

Challenges in Implementing the National Health Response to COVID-19 in Senegal
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in Africa, many epidemiological or anthropological studies have been published. However, few studies...

Temporal Changes in the State Effect of Meditation on Response Inhibition Processes
ObjectivesA single session of brief focused attention meditation (FAM) has a state effect, which temporarily enhances response inhibition processes....

On Response Strength and the Concept of Response Classes
Simon et al. (
2020 ) argue that the concept of response strength is unnecessary and potentially harmful in that it misdirects behavior analysts away... -
Prediction of Response Patterns during Conditional Discrimination Training across Data Recording Methods
The effectiveness of an intervention is tied to the degree to which a program is implemented as described and the behavior analyst’s ability to...

Cognitive Fatigue in Young, Middle-Aged, and Older Adults: A Response Time Distribution Approach
Cognitive fatigue arises after a long-lasting task, as attested by increases in reaction times (RTs). However, most studies have focused on young...

Adherence and Opportunity Frequency as Predictors of Communication Outcomes from Pivotal Response Parent Training
PurposeAccess to intervention is a barrier for children with autism. As parent-mediated interventions have emerged to address this need,...

Day versus night consolidation of implicit sequence learning using manual and oculomotor activation versions of the serial reaction time task: reaction time and anticipation measures
This study presents two experiments that explored consolidation of implicit sequence learning based on two dependent variables—reaction time (RT) and...

Saliency determines the integration of contextual information into stimulus–response episodes
When humans perform a task, it has been shown that elements of this task, like stimulus (e.g., target and distractor) and response, are bound...

Cross-Validating the Atypical Response Scale of the TSI-2 in a Sample of Motor Vehicle Collision Survivors
This study was designed to evaluate the utility of the Atypical Responses (ATR) scale of the Trauma Symptom Inventory – Second Edition (TSI-2) as a...
-
A cognitive model of response omissions in distraction paradigms
The effects of distraction on responses manifest in three ways: prolonged reaction times, and increased error and response omission rates. However,...

Sequence of theory of mind acquisition in ethnic minority children in China: A comparison of Zhuang and Han samples
This exploratory study aims to explore how theory of mind (ToM) of children of Zhuang (the largest ethnic minority in China) is acquired and refined....

A Response-Time-Based Latent Response Mixture Model for Identifying and Modeling Careless and Insufficient Effort Responding in Survey Data
Careless and insufficient effort responding (C/IER) can pose a major threat to data quality and, as such, to validity of inferences drawn from...

The role of action effects in motor sequence planning and execution: exploring the influence of temporal and spatial effect anticipation
Actions we perform every day generate perceivable outcomes with both spatial and temporal features. According to the ideomotor principle, we plan our...

Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT): Research Findings Over 30 Years
Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) is an evidence-based practice that focuses on key “pivotal” areas to produce improvements in targeted areas as well... -
Theory: A Response to Lopes
Response to Carlos Eduardo Lopes’ comments: “What Is the Theory of Theoretical Behaviorism?” -
Blending Active Student Responding with Online Instruction to Evaluate Response Accuracy and Student Engagement
High rates of active student responding and opportunities to respond are considered best-practice instructional strategies for learning. Many...

The sequence of manipulation matters: Abstract thinking offsets ego-depletion when induced before, but not after a depleting task
Based on theoretical and empirical studies dealing with the facilitation and inhibiting effects of different psychic distances (low vs. high...
