The contribution of the three core components of working memory (WM) to the development of mathematical skills in young children is poorly understood. The relation between specific WM components and Numerical Operations, which emphasize computation and fact retrieval, and Mathematical Reasoning, which emphasizes verbal problem solving abilities in 48 2nd and 50 3rd graders was assessed using st...

Attitudes can be seen as object evaluations stored in memory. Accordingly, attitude structure may be seen as a memory structure with dynamic implications for information processing. In this article, an associative network model for the representation of stored attitudes was assumed, and 2 manifestations of the notion of spreading activation within the confines of such a model were examined. Stu...

In this paper, the new paradigm of the second screen in interactive digital television (iDTV) is discussed and analyzed through a systematic literature review. An architecture is proposed for the use of mobile devices as a second screen, so interactivity sent via broadcast can be also used in mobile devices, in a contextualized and synchronized fashion. A prototype was implemented in two module...
