To investigate the effects of different glossing conventions on vocabulary recognition and recall, 158 participants were given a pre-test to make sure that they did not have any prior knowledge of the target words. Reading passages with four different glossing conventions (interlinear, marginal, pre-text, and post-text) were given to eight groups. Four groups received interlingual glosses and f...

UNLABELLED Two types of serial word recall tasks (full verbal recall and probed recall) were administered to 11 children with language impairment and 22 language-normal children matched for productive language or chronological age. The methods were designed to take into account age-related differences in the use of subvocal rehearsal, as measured by the word length effect. The word length effec...

Existing user input sampling methods used for stress-related psychotherapy are plagued with problems of low recall accuracy and high intrusiveness. In this paper, we propose a contextual recall-based self-report method using mobile sensing technology that captures contextual cues including location, activity, and environmental acoustics to aid accurate recollection of stress levels. We conducte...
