Analogical reasoning, control and executive functions: A developmental investigation with eye-tracking
JP Thibaut, RM French - Cognitive Development, 2016 - Elsevier
We use eye-tracking to study the development of analogical reasoning in 5-year-olds, 8-year-
olds, adolescents and adults in the A: B: C: D paradigm. We observed significant differences …

The synchrony effect revisited: chronotype, time of day and cognitive performance in a semantic analogy task
K Nowack, E Van Der Meer - Chronobiology international, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
The synchrony effect (ie superior performance at optimal, inferior performance at suboptimal
times of day) has been broadly studied within the context of circadian rhythms. Whether one …
