Integration of the ecological and error models of overconfidence using a multiple-trace memory model.
(1999)
This research examined a memory processes account of the calibration of probability judgments. A multiple-trace memory model, MINERVA-DM (MDM; Dougherty, Ogden, & Gettys, 1999), was used to integrate the ecological ...
A comparison of emotional intelligence and personality factors: Two concepts or one?
(2007)
Emotional intelligence (EI) has become an active topic among researchers (e.g., Ciarrochi, Chan, Caputi & Roberts, 2001). Such attention has increased awareness of EI but also fueled controversy. Much of the conflict has ...
Computer-mediated communication in collaborative writing.
(1998)
The purpose of this study was to determine if using computers to communicate during group writing tasks is an effective mode of communication. Three-person teams wrote term papers in one of the following media styles: ...
An investigation of the negative effects of semantic priming on the recall of semantic information.
(1980)
Two experiments were performed to discriminate between a pathway inhibition and a response competition explanation of the negative effects of semantic priming on recall. Both experiments involved recalling a word in response ...
Eyewitness Identification: An Investigation of the Feature-Detection Hypothesis
(2015-05)
In eyewitness research, presenting lineup photos sequentially (one at a time) is thought to be superior to presenting lineup photos simultaneously (all at once); however, recent research has identified a robust simultaneous ...
Biased probing of memory: A new explanation of hindsight bias.
(2003)
The following research explores how biased probing of memory leads to overestimating the accuracy with which one could have predicted past events, the hindsight bias. MINERVA-DM, a multiple trace model developed by Dougherty, ...
Neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the distinction between automatic and controlled processes.
(1999)
Automatic processes are fast, effortless, mostly unconscious, take very little capacity and are slowly changing. Controlled processes are much slower, require effort and attention, require capacity, are closely tied to ...
Gambling on the circumplex of affect: An empirical investigation of incidental and anticipated emotional influences on risky choice.
(2007)
Affective decision-making has begun to change the face of the traditional decision science paradigm (Loewenstein, Weber, Hsee, & Welch, 2001), forcing researchers to consider direct influences of affect on both cognition ...
HiMean: A HyGene Approach to Semantic Analysis in a Medical Decision-Making Task
(2014)
This dissertation makes an exploratory comparison between two semantics models, Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) and a newly introduced HiMean model based on the HyGene architecture, in a medical decision-making context. ...
How Judgments of Learning Can Create Illusions of Episodic Memory
(2014-05-09)
Metacognitive judgments made during learning derive from several types of information. These metacognitive cues often reflect intrinsic properties of the to-be-learned material, such as encoding fluency and processing ...
