The relation between children's constructive play activities, spatial ability, and mathematical word problem-solving performance: a mediation analysis in sixth-grade students.

Frontiers in psychology

Oostermeijer M, Boonen AJ, Jolles J.
PMID: 25101038
Front Psychol. 2014 Jul 17;5:782. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00782. eCollection 2014.

The scientific literature shows that constructive play activities are positively related to children's spatial ability. Likewise, a close positive relation is found between spatial ability and mathematical word problem-solving performances. The relation between children's constructive play and their performance...

Thrills, chills, frissons, and skin orgasms: toward an integrative model of transcendent psychophysiological experiences in music.

Frontiers in psychology

Harrison L, Loui P.

Front Psychol. 2014 Jul 23;5:790. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00790. eCollection 2014.

Music has a unique power to elicit moments of intense emotional and psychophysiological response. These moments - termed "chills," "thrills", "frissons," etc. - are subjects of introspection and philosophical debate, as well as scientific study in music perception and...

In this paper, I address the question of how to account for the normative dimension involved in conceptual competence in a naturalistic framework. First, I present what I call the naturalist challenge (NC), referring to both the phylogenetic and...

How (not) to draw philosophical implications from the cognitive nature of concepts: the case of intentionality.

Frontiers in psychology

Iijima K, Ota K.

Front Psychol. 2014 Jul 22;5:799. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00799. eCollection 2014.

Philosophers have often appealed to intuitive judgments in various thought experiments to support or reject particular theses. Experimental philosophy is an emerging discipline that examines the cognitive nature of such intuitive judgments. In this paper, we assess the methodological...

Is conscious stimulus identification dependent on knowledge of the perceptual modality? Testing the "source misidentification hypothesis".

Frontiers in psychology

Overgaard M, Lindeløv J, Svejstrup S, Døssing M, Hvid T, Kauffmann O, Mouridsen K.

Front Psychol. 2013 Mar 18;4:116. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2013.00116. eCollection 2013.

This paper reports an experiment intended to test a particular hypothesis derived from blindsight research, which we name the "source misidentification hypothesis." According to this hypothesis, a subject may be correct about a stimulus without being correct about how...

A short version of the Food Cravings Questionnaire-Trait: the FCQ-T-reduced.

Frontiers in psychology

Meule A, Hermann T, Kübler A.
PMID: 24624116

One of the most often used instruments for the assessment of food cravings is the Food Cravings Questionnaire (FCQ), which consists of a trait (FCQ-T; 39 items) and state (FCQ-S; 15 items) version. Scores on the FCQ-T have been...

Enhanced neural synchrony between left auditory and premotor cortex is associated with successful phonetic categorization.

Front Psychol. 2014 May 06;5:394. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00394. eCollection 2014.

The cortical dorsal auditory stream has been proposed to mediate mapping between auditory and articulatory-motor representations in speech processing. Whether this sensorimotor integration contributes to speech perception remains an open question. Here, magnetoencephalography was used to examine connectivity between...

A study on reintegration of street children in Burundi: experienced violence and maltreatment are associated with mental health impairments and impeded educational progress.

Frontiers in psychology

Crombach A, Bambonyé M, Elbert T.

Street children are exposed to violence, and subsist in poor and generally precarious conditions. In conflict regions, institutional care facilities are often the only well established way to care for vulnerable children. Providing access to school education is considered...

Multiscale Enaction Model (MEM): the case of complexity and "context-sensitivity" in vision.

Frontiers in psychology

Laurent É.

Front Psychol. 2014 Dec 19;5:1425. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2014.01425. eCollection 2014.

I review the data on human visual perception that reveal the critical role played by non-visual contextual factors influencing visual activity. The global perspective that progressively emerges reveals that vision is sensitive to multiple couplings with other systems whose...

Impulsive delayed reward discounting as a genetically-influenced target for drug abuse prevention: a critical evaluation.

Frontiers in psychology

Gray JC, MacKillop J.
PMID: 26388788
Front Psychol. 2015 Sep 01;6:1104. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2015.01104. eCollection 2015.

This review evaluates the viability of delayed reward discounting (DRD), an index of how much an individual devalues a future reward based on its delay in time, for genetically-informed drug abuse prevention. A review of the literature suggests that...
