The mental-attention Tai Chi effect with older adults
These gains suggest that Tai Chi can improve mental-attentional vigilance and executive control, when practitioners are sufficiently motivated to pursue this practice, and apply themselves (as our Chinese participants seem to have done). We found that Tai Chi enhanced mental attentional executives in the Chinese sample. The largely negative results with Non-Chinese participants might be explained by less strong motivation and by the relatively sh…

Quantitative Hardware Stages That Constrain Language Development
We argue the case for general cognitive-processing constraints on, and cognitive-developmental stages in, linguistic performance. We use the theory of constructive operators of Pascual-Leone to analyze the sorts of’software’ (i.e., content-bound) and ‘hardware’ (i.e., content-free organismic) processes relevant for a cognitive developmental model of language. Emphasis is placed on the hardware: mental-attentional capacity as a limit on linguistic…

Learning and Development as Dialectical Factors in Cognitive Growth
Cognitive growth results from dialectical interactions among different modes of learning and mental attentional capacity. These interactions explain truly novel (creative) performances. The different modes of learning, as well as the functional components making up mental attention, relate to the function of different areas in the human cortex. Organismic schemes are neuropsychological units; principles governing their functioning can be clarifie…

Cognitive Executive Processes and Mental Capacity on the Compound Stimulus Visual Information Task in a Group of Zulu-Speaking Children
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of arousal and temporal executive training in the measurement of M-power using the Compound Stimulus Visual Information test (CSVI). Exploratory research has indicated that the standard CSVI training procedure may need to incorporate additional training when used cross-culturally to ensure familiarity with the executive demands of the task. Eleven-year-old ( n = 59) and 13-year-old ( n = …
Formal operations andM power
The authors present a theory-based method of task analysis which predicts the developmental difficulty (the mental “attention” or “load” requirements-the M demand) of formal tasks
