The self-regulated learning literature must distinguish true self-regulation (i.e., inhibition, adaption) from internalized, habitual enactment. We don't want students self-regulating every moment during learning! This is a helpful discussion of habits re: SRL. #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky

Students frequently rely on ineffective learning strategies instead of those that promote long-term retention. This is not simply a matter of lacking metacognitive knowledge. Research on…

Thrilled to see this paper out! It's the culmination of a project begun in the depths of the pandemic with Sabrina Karjack and @zoengo.bsky.social . We continue our exploration of how children generalize when their episodic memory is not yet mature. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
The dependence of children’s generalization on episodic memory varies with age and level of abstraction - Nature Communications
Children’s ability to generalize from episodic memories varies by both age and the level of abstraction. Here, the authors show that lower level generalization increasingly depends on episodic memory with age, whereas higher level generalization shows no such relationship.

A core assumption of adaptive/personalized education is that different learners thrive under different instructional conditions. Leo Tetzlaff examined the expertise-reversal effect and found some support for this, but it's complicated (asymmetry, moderators) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Different learners thrive under different instructional conditions, thus requiring adaptivity. Such differential effects became known as aptitude-trea…

A new paper is out in @edpsychjournal.bsky.social with @luisevk.bsky.social! In educational psychology, motivation theories have not really changed since I was a ph.

In case you needed more evidence that social media may not be the thing we should be obsessing about when it comes to wellbeing…another meta-analysis of experimental data showing no link.
Chris Ferguson@cjferguson1111.bsky.social · last yr.New meta-analysis of experiments of social media use reduction finds no evidence that reducing social media use improves mental wellness: www.nature.com/articles/s41... I've only taken a quick look thus far but this replicates my own meta-analysis from last year. Always nice to see.

Excellent post on the lack of empirical support for stereotype threat, from someone deeply involved in the research. Also, importantly, "stereotype threat isn't real" != "stereotypes are not threatening." These are very different claims, but the former is often taken to mean the latter.
