Reconciling category exceptions through representational shifts
Real-world categories often contain exceptions that disobey the perceptual regularities followed by other members. Prominent psychological and...

Category learning in autistic individuals: A meta-analysis
Learning new categories is a fundamental human skill. In the present article, we report the first comprehensive meta-analysis of category learning in...
-
Brief category learning distorts perceptual space for complex scenes
The formation of categories is known to distort perceptual space: representations are pushed away from category boundaries and pulled toward...
-
The spacing effect in remote information-integration category learning
The present experiments examined whether the temporal distribution of procedural category learning experiences would impact learning outcomes....

Foundations of Vocal Category Development in Autistic Infants
The present study compared the infant’s tendency in the first year of life to produce clusters of particular vocal types (squeals, vocants, and...

Object recognition ability predicts category learning with medical images
We investigated the relationship between category learning and domain-general object recognition ability ( o ). We assessed this relationship in a...

A Diagnostic Facet Status Model (DFSM) for Extracting Instructionally Useful Information from Diagnostic Assessment
Modern assessment demands, resulting from educational reform efforts, call for strengthening diagnostic testing capabilities to identify not only the...
-
Incidental auditory category learning and visuomotor sequence learning do not compete for cognitive resources
The environment provides multiple regularities that might be useful in guiding behavior if one was able to learn their structure. Understanding...
-
Transfer of category learning to impoverished contexts
Learning often happens in ideal conditions, but then must be applied in less-than-ideal conditions – such as when a learner studies clearly...

Methods for online calibration of Q-matrix and item parameters for polytomous responses in cognitive diagnostic computerized adaptive testing
The ability to rapidly provide examinees with detailed and effective diagnostic information is a critical topic in psychology. Knowing what...

The effects of non-diagnostic information on confidence and decision making
Many decision-making tasks are characterized by a combination of diagnostic and non-diagnostic information, yet models of responding and confidence...
-
Category structure and region-specific selective attention
A fundamental component of human categorization involves learning to attend selectively to relevant dimensions and ignore irrelevant ones. Past...
-
Learning strategy impacts medical diagnostic reasoning in early learners
Relating learned information to similar yet new scenarios, transfer of learning, is a key characteristic of expert reasoning in many fields including...

Finding a Needed Diagnostic Home for Children with Impulsive Aggression
Aggressive behavior is one of the most common reasons for referrals of youth to mental health treatment. While there are multiple publications...

Cognitive Profiles are Better Predictors of Literacy Attainment Than Diagnostic Outcomes in Children with High ADHD Symptoms
We examined whether cognitive profiles or diagnostic outcomes are better predictors of literacy performance for children being considered for an ADHD...

The Viewing Reaction Time as a Diagnostic Tool of Pedohebephilia in the Dunkelfeld
Diagnosing pedohebephilia is fraught with obstacles given the tabooed nature of this sexual preference. The viewing reaction time effect (VRT)...
