Why are children overconfident? Developmental differences in the implementation of accessibility cues when judging concept learning
M van Loon, A de Bruin, J Leppink… - Journal of Experimental …, 2017 - Elsevier
Children are often overconfident when monitoring their learning, which is harmful for
effective control and learning. The current study investigated children's (N= 167, age range 7 …

Eye movements reveal memory processes during similarity-and rule-based decision making
Recent research suggests that when people retrieve information from memory they tend to
fixate on the location where the information had appeared during encoding. We used this …
