Today at 4 I’ll be giving a talk on some interesting findings on the relationship between prior knowledge and students’ ability to monitor their learning. I would love to hear what people think, so if you’re at #2022MPA come check it out!

Awesome work @UmaTauber @vjthakk and Megan!! In their work, they show that students modify their study behavior depending on the kind of learning evaluation they expect. Check out their work if you are interested in learning more!

Calling all Early-Career Researchers! Please join Division 3 of APA and @SocietySpark next Friday (10/28, 2:30pm ET) as we demystify what goes on in psychology departments’ search committees for tenure-track faculty! To RSVP and submit questions: tinyurl.com/LessScary

New paper out with Addy Babineau and @UmaTauber testing the cue-strengthening account of JOL reactivity using an interactive imagery manipulation. TLDR: No evidence of reactivity when participants create their own relationships for unrelated word pairs. mdpi.com/2079-3200/11/7…

With the start of a new semester sneaking up, this is a great time to be thinking about strategic learning. Looking forward to reading everyone’s contributions!

New paper out spearheaded by Michelle Rivers, PhD. We looked at the potential role of attentional reorienting in JOL reactivity. Check it out ☺️ mdpi.com/2079-3200/11/8…
