Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 575
Book Description
This book aims to highlight the vigour, diversity and insight of the various cognitive science perspectives on personality and emotion. It aims also to emphasise the rigorous scientific basis for research to be found in the integration of experimental psychology with neuroscience, connectionism and the new evolutionary psychology. The contributors to this book provide a wide-ranging survey of leading-edge research topics. It is divided into three parts, on general frameworks for cognitive science, on perspectives from emotion research, and on perspectives from studies of personality traits.

Translation of Thought to Written Text While Composing
Author: Michel FayolPublisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 113649670X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
Translation of cognitive representations into written language is one of the most important processes in writing. This volume provides a long-awaited updated overview of the field. The contributors discuss each of the commonly used research methods for studying translation; theorize about the nature of the cognitive and language representations and cognitive/linguistic transformation mechanisms involved in translation during writing; and make the case that translation is a higher-order executive function that is fundamental to the writing process. The book also reviews the application of research to practice -- that is, the translation of the research findings in education and the work-world for individuals who interact with others using written language to communicate ideas. This volume provides a rich resource for student, theorists, and empirical researchers in cognitive psychology, linguistics, and education; and teachers and clinicians who can use the research in their work.
Comprehension of Graphics
Author: W. SchnotzPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080867626
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 377
Book Description
Graphic displays such as charts, graphs, diagrams, and maps play in important role today in the design and presentation of instructional materials education. There is also a strong need in scientific, technical and administrative fields to visually present facts, laws, principles etc. The increasing use of computer-based learning environments has also become an important field where the visual presentation of information plays a central role. Despite the importance of graphical displays as a means of communication and the fact that research about learning and cognition has advanced rapidly in the past two decades, the comprehension of graphics is still a rather unexplored area.The comprehension of graphics is not only a stimulating topic in the fields of science and instructional psychology, but also in related disciplines such as semiotics, and artificial intelligence. Research on the comprehension of graphics complements the scientific investigation of cognitive processes in text comprehension, which has contributed much to our understanding of human cognition and learning. Ultimately, a better understanding of the cognitive processes involved in the comprehension of graphics will have an impact not only on cognitive theory, but also on educational practice.
Heritage and School Language Literacy Development in Migrant Children
Author: Raphael BerthelePublisher: Multilingual Matters
ISBN: 1783099062
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
This book discusses literacy development in heritage language speakers and presents the results of four different quantitative studies that investigate the transfer of literacy skills in bi- and multilingual language development. The empirical studies focus on different populations of pupils, most of them located in various parts of Switzerland, and emphasise the potential residing in shared or transferred resources between their heritage languages and the languages spoken in the region to which their family has immigrated. The goal of all studies was to gain an understanding of the factors, both linguistic and non-linguistic in nature, that contribute to the development of language skills in both the heritage and school languages. Theoretical assumptions are put to the test via hypothesis testing and the generally shared assumptions on bilingual education are questioned based on the data. Furthermore, methodological problems in the investigation of linguistic interdependence are discussed. This book contributes to the scholarly investigation of potential beneficial effects in academic proficiency across languages in migrant children.

Lecture à l'université
Author: Jean-Pascal SimonPublisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783906770420
Category : Education
Languages : fr
Pages : 308
Book Description
Partant du postulat peu discuté selon lequel la capacité de lecture est l'une des clés de la réussite universitaire, les contributions rassemblées dans cet ouvrage font dialoguer des chercheurs en didactique des langues maternelles et secondes, des linguistes, des psychologues et des sociologues. L'ouvrage se propose d'interroger quelques-unes des fonctions de la lecture, notamment celle d'outil ordinaire du travail universitaire. Parmi les sujets abordés, on relèvera l'examen des différentes pratiques de lecture en Langue 1 et en Langue 2, le rôle des interactions lecture-écriture dans différents contextes nationaux, mais aussi la question des transferts de compétences en langue 1 et 2. Il s'agit en particulier de savoir comment les capacités de lecteurs en langue 1 sont mobilisées lors de la lecture en langue 2 et en quoi elles permettent de compenser partiellement les difficultés rencontrées. D'autres problèmes, comme celui que posent au lecteur des écrits de genres différents, aux caractéristiques textuelles et énonciatives spécifiques, fournissent la matière d'autres contributions. L'ensemble se veut un apport à la didactique de l'enseignement supérieur, actuellement en plein développement.
