The twenty-first century challenges engineering educators to design learning experiences to strategically and holistically target students’ development, including cognitive, psychomotor, social and affective domains. We propose a guide for the design process. The Four-Domain Development Diagram (4DDD) is a synthesis of learning theory and empirical data. This guide maps the relationships among ...

Although there is great interest in identifying the neural correlates of cognitive processes that create risk for psychopathology, there is a paucity of research in young children. One event-related potential (ERP), the N2, is thought to index conflict monitoring and has been linked cognitive and affective risk factors for anxiety. Most of this research, however, has been conducted with adults,...

Two experiments were conducted to examine whether attitudes based on affect or cognition were more susceptible to persuasive appeals that matched versus mismatched the basis of attitudes. Experiment 1 provided evidence for a relative affective/cognitive persuasion matching effect and suggested that this matching effect could not be accounted for by attribute matching rather than affective/cogni...

In this paper we argue that successful information systems development requires creative problem solving skills, and present two cognitive factors, selfefficacy, and creative self-efficacy, and one affective factor, playfulness, as three key personal factors that aid creative problem solving during information systems development (ISD). A research model to support our argument is constructed sy...

Key research suggests that empathy is a multidimensional construct comprising of both cognitive and affective components. More recent theories and research suggest even further factors within these components of empathy, including the ability to empathize with others versus the drive towards empathizing with others. While numerous self-report measures have been developed to examine empathy, non...

Cognitive empathy (or theory of mind) is the capacity to understand others' thoughts and feelings, while affective tendency be affected by feelings. There evidence that successful attentional control related increased cognitive but reduced empathy. Here, we investigated whether relates real-world failures, which are associated with control. We examined relationship between individual difference...

Emotional information is often remembered better than neutral information, but this enhancement can come at the cost of memory for non-emotional stimuli presented alongside emotionally salient items. Two encoding-related factors have been proposed to influence the magnitude of this trade-off: The intensity of the affective response to the scenes (which increases the trade-off) and the cognitive...
