Generative and Retrieval Tasks
Engaging in both generative tasks (main function: knowledge construction) and retrieval tasks (main function: knowledge consolidation) is a common means for supporting knowledge acquisition. In the present study, we investigated the role of task sequence (i.e., generative‐before‐retrieval vs. retrieval‐before‐generative) and its potential dependence on learning task delay (i.e., delay between initial study phase and follow‐up generative or retrie…
Punchline with(out) purpose
INTRODUCTION: We integrated research on instructional humour and seductive details to investigate when affiliative course-related humour is effective or rather ineffective for learning. We assumed that instructional humour without a cognitive function (irrelevant humour) would have detrimental effects on learning performance resembling the seductive details effect, whereas humour with a cognitive function (e.g., humorous analogies illustrating th…
Die internationale Renaissance der Philosophie Ernst Cassirers und ihre Gegenwart im Abschluss der Nachlass-Edition
Ernst Cassirer is widely recognized as one of the few polymaths of the 20th century. Over the past three decades, his philosophy has undergone extensive reconstruction and renewal. At its core, Cassirer's philosophy aims to conceptually encompass the totality of human expressions in perception, understanding, knowledge, and action, systematically demonstrating how symbolic forms mediate and illuminate the interplay between mind and world. With th…
Sustaining focus when It's hardest
Learners increasingly use digital devices such as laptops or tablets for studying. While these devices offer advantages, they also pose challenges. They present attractive alternative opportunities for learners, such as communication or entertainment opportunities that may distract from learning. Such alternatives increase demand for self-control, particularly over time. We investigated the potential of emotional design in learning materials to s…
Combining generative tasks and retrieval tasks
Both tasks designed to elicit generative activities (i.e., generative tasks) and tasks designed to elicit retrieval activities (i.e., retrieval tasks) can substantially foster learning after an initial study phase in which learners encountered new content. More specifically, in line with the theoretical notion that generative tasks serve the function of fostering the construction of mental representations, generative tasks have been found to subs…

Introduction
This special issue focuses on two related topics in Ernst Cassirer’s thought: objectivity and truth. Through this lens, the guest editors attempt to illuminate (a) the historical and systematic value of Cassirer’s philosophical project, (b) the continuing relevance of his account of the plurality and universality of human understanding in view of the crisis of truth that currently permeates Western culture, and (c) the way Cassirer’s style can in…

Engaging in writing to learn – Increasing the motivation during a long-term self-regulated learning training
Introduction University students should be able to self-regulate their learning to gain the most from their studies. Extended self-regulated-learning trainings can help students to reach that goal. A frequent problem of such trainings is that students’ motivation decreases over the course of training. To avoid this decrease, we combined a learning-journal-based, self-regulated-learning training with a learning environment teaching conditional kno…
The Elasticity of Perception
In the current philosophy of perception, a debate about whether concepts permeate perceptual states in constituting the perceptual object or not has been widely discussed. Analytic philosophers and phenomenologists participate in this debate likewise, but it is also a debate in Kantian scholarship since the conceptualists’ thesis goes back to Kant’s Criticism and neo-Kantians already discussing such theory against any philosophy of immediate expe…
Can prior knowledge increase task complexity? - Cases in which higher prior knowledge leads to higher intrinsic cognitive load
Background & AimsCognitive load theory assumes that the higher the learner's prior knowledge (i.e., the more expert the learner), the lower the intrinsic cognitive load (complexity) experienced for a given problem. While this is the case in many scenarios, there can be cases in which the converse is also true, resulting in more expert learners reporting higher intrinsic cognitive load than novices for the same problem. This can occur in relation …
When and why does emotional design foster learning? Evidence for situational interest as a mediator of increased persistence
It matters how to recall – task differences in retrieval practice
The type of a recall task may substantially influence the effects of learning by retrieval practice. In a within-subject design, 54 university students studied two expository texts, followed by retrieval practice with either short-answer tasks (targeted retrieval) or a free-recall task (holistic retrieval). Concerning the direct effects of retrieval practice, short-answer tasks led to increased retention of directly retrieved targeted information…
Stock Prices
When it comes to financial decision-making like predicting stock price movements, it would be conceivable that rational people had an advantage over intuitive people. An experiment was conducted to test this hypothesis. Participants of the experiment provided repeated estimates for different shares and it was expected that rational people would end up with more 'correct' answers than intuitive people. Additionally, all participants of the experim…
