this study investigated the effects of manipulating the cognitive complexity of tasks along +/- few elements and the time limits on l2 learners writing performance. to conduct the study, 60 iranian efl learners with two levels of proficiency, low and high intermediate, were selected and assigned to three groups based on the time devoted to task completion. the participants performed both a simp...

Cognitive Modeling 7 EPIC 8 ACT - R 11 Theories of Multitasking 14

Humans routinely perform multiple tasks simultaneously. Understanding the capabilities and limits of human multitasking not only helps design efficient devices to enhance human performance, but also helps uncover the nature of human cognition. Research on multitasking is difficult because multitasking performance is inevitably influenced by many factors such as a person’s perceptual, cognitive ...

Neuro-ACT Cognitive Architecture Applications in Modeling Driver’s Steering Behavior in Turns

Cognitive Architectures (CAs) are the core of artificial cognitive systems. A CA is supposed to specify the human brain at a level of abstraction suitable for explaining how it achieves the functions of the mind. Over the years a number of distinct CAs have been proposed by different authors and their limitations and potentials were investigated. These CAs are usually classified as symbolic and...

the impact of pre-task planning on the improvement of iranian efl learners’ writing skill in task-based language teaching (tblt)

هدف اصلی تحقیق حاضر تبیین تاثیر برنامه ریزی پیش از انجام تکلیف بر بهبود مهارت نوشتاری زبان آموزان ایرانی در آموزش زبان تکلیف محور می باشد. به بیانی دیگر، این مطالعه رابطه بین برنامه ریزی پیش از انجام تکلیف و دو ویژگی زبانی در عملکرد نوشتاری یعنی پیچیدگی و دقت در مهارت نوشتاری را در سی یادگیرنده زبان در دو بخش عمده بررسی می کند. ابزارهای مورد استفاده برای جمع آوری داده ها در مطالعه حاضر شامل آزم...
