  • Examining the relation between Pass cognitive processes and superior reading and mathematics performance

    Open AccessGeorge K Georgiou, Okan Bulut et al.ARTICLEPsychology in the Schools2021

    Although several studies have shown that planning, attention, simultaneous, and successive (PASS) cognitive processes—operationalized with the cognitive assessment system (CAS; Naglieri & Das, 1997)—are significant predictors of academic performance in the general population, little is known about their role among children with superior academic skills. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine whether PASS processes can predict superior per…

  • Attention: Concept, Tests and Teacher Ratings

    Open AccessJ P DasARTICLEPsychology and Developing Societies2002

    The theoretical part of the present article discusses the nature of attention, its tests and meas ures, as well as the localisation of attentional deficit. Attention is selective, involves the in hibition of impulsive responses and resistance to distraction. In the second part, a review of three empirical studies, which explored the use of an attention rating scale for teachers to rate attentiveness of children in the classroom, are discussed. Th…

  • Identification and Remediation of Reading Difficulties Based on Successive Processing Deficits and Delay in General Reading

    Open AccessMelinda Churches, Mervyn Skuy et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2002

    Widespread learning problems among South African children are associated with the apartheid era and show a need for effective reading programs. In selecting these programs, it is useful to differentiate between children with dyslexia and children whose reading is poor because teaching was inadequate. In this study, the Woodcock Tests of Reading Mastery-Revised and tests modelled on the Cognitive Assessment System were used to define a group of ch…

  • Developmental Normsfor the Pass (Planning-Attention- Simultaneous-Successive) Processes: Oriya Adaptation

    Open AccessUdaya N Dash, J P DasARTICLEPsychology and Developing Societies1998

    A new way of thinking about intelligence has emerged. It conceptualises intelligence as a composite of four cognitive processes: Planning, Arousal Attention, Simultaneous and Successive Processes (PASS). This study reports an Oriya adaptation of the meas ures that assess the 4 cognitive processes. Three hundred and fifty children in Grades 1 to 11 were administered the Oriya adaptation. Means, standard deviation and devel opmental growth curves f…

  • Cognitive Profiles of Poor Readers in Oriya Language: Are They Similar to English Readers

    Open AccessJ P Das, Sambit Nanda et al.ARTICLEPsychology and Developing Societies1996

    Can we assume that the generally poor reader in Oriya language may be distin guished from good and average readers on the basis of selected cognitive tasks that do not involve reading? Furthermore, are their cognitive performance differ ences similar to those found among good and poor readers in English among Canadian children whose mother tongue is English? School children from Grades 3 and 5 participated in the study. They came from two kinds o…

  • Pass: An Alternative Approach to Intelligence

    Open AccessJ P Das, J Abbott et al.ARTICLEPsychology and Developing Societies1995

    As a by-product of the cognitive revolution, a coherent theory of cognitive processing has challenged traditional methods of studying and measuring intelligence. The PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous and Successive cognitive processing) theory of intelligence identifies three operational units that are important to understand mental functioning: attention, simultaneous and successive processing, and planning. The PASS theory of intelligence…

  • The Role of Speech Processes and Memory in Reading Disability

    J P Das, Marion Mok et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of General Psychology1994

    The performance of poor and average readers on cognitive tasks comprising naming time, speech rate, and word series recall and on a phonemic segmentation task was examined in the first part of this study by computing relationships among the tasks and their relation to reading. In the second part of this study, we investigated the performance of the poor and average readers in detail on naming time by analyzing the audiotaped protocols on a comput…

  • The Relevance of Psychology in a Developing Country: Examples from Cognitive Assessment

    Open AccessJ P DasARTICLEPsychology and Developing Societies1992

    The paper explores the relevance of psychology in a developing country, India, with the help of examples from cognitive assessment. A model of cognitive processes called PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous and Successive Processing) is proposed. The model suggests that cognition can be understood as the result of the interdependent functioning of three neurological systems which influence each other. The paper con cludes that the distinction …

  • Some Developmental Trends in Children's Information-Processing Strategies

    Geoffrey N Molloy, J P Das et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1990

    The problem-solving strategies of 120 children from two age levels were compared by means of exploratory factor analyses. Essentially, these results replicated the factor structures of earlier studies based on the Das-Luria model. Disparities in factor loadings on some tasks were interpreted as suggestive of developmental differences in children's coding strategies which are compatible with Bruner's description of the course of cognitive growth

  • Roles of Managers as Perceived by Business Students

    Open AccessJoya Sen, J P DasARTICLEPsychological Reports1990

    Perception of the roles of managers by 77 business students in a Canadian university was studied by using Mintzberg's 10 roles. The 10 roles were put in a questionnaire and administered to the students to determine whether (1) three different kinds of managers, production, staffing and sales, will be ascribed different weights to the roles and (2) if the roles would be perceived to form the three categories, interpersonal, informational, and deci…

  • Attention Checklist: A Rating Scale for Mildly Mentally Handicapped Adolescents

    Open AccessJ P Das, Louise MelnykARTICLEPsychological Reports1989

    A check list for attentional deficits without reference to hyperactive behavior observed in the classroom was constructed, and teachers' ratings were factor analyzed. The check-list rating was compared to a widely used rating scale for attention deficit-hyperactive disorder (AD-HD), the Abbreviated Conners Rating Scale. Both scales were given to 15 teachers to rate 100 mildly mentally handicapped adolescent students. Analysis showed that 33% of t…

  • Simultaneous and successive synthesis: An alternative model for cognitive abilities

    J P Das, John Kirby et al.ARTICLEPsychological Bulletin1975Cited by: 3

    Current theories of the structure of cognitive abilities are critically examined and found to lack adequate description of the processes underlying the abilities. An alternative model, Luria's theory of simultaneous and successive syntheses, is presented and discussed. This model of information processing is supported by a number of factor analytic studies of cognitive abilities and then related to data from studies of memory, imagery, and langua…

  • Acquisition and Reversal of Orienting Responses to Word Signals

    Open AccessA C BOWER, J P DasARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology1972

    Acquisition, reversal, adaptation and inhibition of the orienting response were investigated in a mentally retarded sample and its CA and MA matched normal groups. GSR frequency, magnitude and latency were used as indices of the OR. The retarded subjects maintained and modified their ORs as efficiently as the normals during acquisition and reversal. OR decrements to non‐signals and to former signals were distinguished as adaptation v. inhibition

  • Orientating Responses of Mentally Retarded and Normal Subjects to Word‐signals

    Open AccessJ P Das, A C BOWERARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology1971

    GSRs of normal and retarded children of comparable CA were recorded during a 30‐min. vigilance task, which consisted of two signal and four non‐signal words. One of the signal words served as a warning signal, preceding the other, which was an imperative signal for buttton‐pressing. The warning signal evoked a greater number of GSRs in the normals than the imperative one; this was reversed for the retardates. GSR adaptation to signal words occurr…

  • Body‐sway Suggestibility and Semantic Satiation

    Open AccessJ P DasARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology1968

    Two tests of semantic satiation and a body‐sway test were administered to fifty post‐graduate students. Satiation scores for words in subjects' native language were found to be highly correlated with body‐sway ( r = 0·801), while satiation for words in English were not so related. The correlation between satiation and body‐sway was consonant with similar relationships observed between hypnosis and satiation. Some hypotheses regarding the nature o…

  • Relation Between Semantic Satiation and Verbal Conditioning

    Open AccessJ P DasARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology1966

    The relation between extent of semantic satiation and trials to learn two verbal conditioning tasks was investigated in a sample of thirty‐eight college students. Semantic satiation was measured by polarity‐difference scores between rating the words before and after a standard satiation treatment. Trials to reach criterion of learning were combined for the two verbal conditioning tests. The correlation between the satiation and verbal conditionin…
