Previous research on the relationship between executive function and source monitoring in young children has been inconclusive, with studies finding conflicting results about whether working memory and inhibitory control are related to source-monitoring ability. In this study, the role of working memory and inhibitory control in recognition memory and source monitoring with two different retrie...

Being able to obtain a model of a dynamical system is useful for a variety of purposes, e.g. condition monitoring and model-based control. The dynamics of complex technical systems such as gas or wind turbines can be approximated by data driven models, e.g. recurrent neural networks. Such methods have proven to be powerful alternatives to analytical models which are not always available or may ...

of a dissertation at the University of Miami. Dissertation supervised by Associate Professor Heather Henderson. (93) In this study, behavioral (post-error response time) and electrophysiological (ERN amplitude and latency) indices of error-monitoring were examined in individuals with autism and typical development. Participants were presented with a series of faces, and they were asked to quick...

The present experiments adapt a memory framework (source monitoring) to the study of closure processes. Closure processes are invoked as explanatory mechanisms underlying the ability to identify objects under conditions of incomplete visual information. If closure processes are activated, filling in missing pieces of visual information, intriguing memory predictions follow. When making source j...

This study investigated the impact of using the technique of self-monitoring on non-academic EFL learners’ composition writing. Fifty female students studying English at Navid English Institute in Shiraz, Iran were chosen based on the results of a proficiency test. They were all 16-20 years old and were intermediate learners of English who were divided into two control and experimental groups a...

The magnitude of age differences on event- and time-based prospective memory tasks was investigated in 2 experiments. Participants performed a working memory task and were also required to perform either an event- or time-based prospective action. Control participants performed either the working memory task only or the prospective memory task only. Results yielded age differences on both prosp...

Abstract: The risks of alternating current (AC) corrosion and overprotection increasingly demand new criteria forcathodically protected pipelines. To assess the risk of AC corrosion, new cathodic protection (CP) criteria have beenproposed based on DC/AC current densities measurements using coupons. The monitoring system designed for thisproject was based on the instant-off method, with steel co...
