Research has consistently demonstrated that taking a test prior to receiving misleading information increases eyewitness suggestibility (Chan, Thomas, & Bulevich, 2009). Retrieval Enhanced Suggestibility (RES) is characterized by two typical findings: (1) reduced access to the originally witnessed event, which has been contextualized within a reconsolidation framework (e.g., Chan & LaPaglia, 20...

This paper reports the findings of a humancomputer interaction (HCI) experiment, conducted to determine whether graphical or textual representations of a simulated load monitor are more effective at communicating notification information in a secondary display. We establish guidelines for design tradeoffs based on significant differences in display facilitation of information monitoring, awaren...

This paper recalls the main achievements of nTRV experiment which measured two components transverse polarization ( \sigma_{T_{1}} σT1 , \sigma_{T_{2}} display="inline">σT</m...

Questions: What determines the duration of conventional display in animal contests? Mathematical method: Evolutionarily stable probability distribution of display duration is calculated mathematically. Key assumptions: Display lasts until one of the contestants chooses to fight or flee. The outcome of fighting between two contestants is determined by their relative strength, which is unknown at...

There are many formal systems in the field of logic of questions. (See nice overviews in [2] and [3].) If we omit pragmatically oriented theories, then there are two known approaches working within erotetic inferential structures: Groenendijk-Stokhof’s intensional approach [1] and the general theory of erotetic inferences proposed by Andrzej Wísniewski [4]. Even if we can meet some other theori...

Algorithm Animation is becoming increasingly popular with several educators. However, certain key questions have to be addressed before an informed decision on a given system can be made. This paper tries to identify several such questions and provide a brief overview of some algorithm animation systems. The key decisions are grouped in four entries: system type and animation generation approac...

We explore the annotation of information structure in German and compare the quality of expert annotation with crowdsourced annotation taking into account the cost of reaching crowd consensus. Concretely, we discuss a crowd-sourcing effort annotating focus in a task-based corpus of German containing reading comprehension questions and answers. Against the backdrop of a gold standard reference r...

The Impact of Concept Map Visualizations on the Information Behavior, Perceptions of Performance, Learning and Use with Novices in the Information Retrieval Context Jodi C. Williams Michael Atwood, Ph.D. In examining undergraduate students in the information retrieval environment for the impact of computer generated concept maps, two primary research questions were considered: 1) what is the im...
