Virtual reality (VR) has seen increasing application in cognitive psychology in recent years.
There is some debate about the impact of VR on both learning outcomes and on patterns of …

Modern technical tools such as tablets allow for the temporal externalisation of working
memory processes (ie, cognitive offloading). Although such externalisations support …

A central feature of modern technologies such as smartphones or tablets is that they allow
for the externalization of working memory processes (ie cognitive offloading). Such …

The cognitive load of many everyday life tasks exceeds known limitations of short-term
memory. One strategy to compensate for information overload is cognitive offloading which …

Learners presumably attempt to allocate their study time to maximize reward, yet in some
contexts, their study choices are driven by reading biases that would not maximize reward …

This study, part of a series investigating students' use of online tools to assess problem
solving, uses eye-tracking hardware and software to explore the effect of problem difficulty …

In the present article, we explore prospects for using artificial intelligence (AI) to distribute
cognition via cognitive offloading (ie, to delegate thinking tasks to AI-technologies). Modern …

This paper includes two experiments, one investigating complexity factors in stoichiometry
word problems, and the other identifying students' problem-solving protocols by using eye …

The memory for goals model (Altmann & Trafton, 2002) posits the importance of a short
delay (the 'interruption lag') before an interrupting task to encode suspended goals for …

This paper investigates whether, and if so how much, prior training and experience overwrite
the influence of the constraints of the task environment on strategy deployment. This …
