The transportability of Memory Specificity Training (MeST): adapting an intervention derived from experimental psychology to routine clinical practices. KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence shows that a cognitive factor associated with a worsening of depressive symptoms amongst people with and without diagnoses of depression - reduced Autobiographical Memory (rAMS) - can be ameliorated by a group cognitive training protocol referred to as Memory Specificity Training (MeST). When transporting interventions such as MeST from research to routine clinical practices (RCPs), modifications are inevitable, ...
An experimental approach towards the evaluation of a seat belt campaign with an inside view on the psychology behind seat belt use Hasselt University KU Leuven
A Belgian national safety belt campaign was evaluated by means of a questionnaire survey in an adolescent sample. The evaluation was done through a three group after-only design with the use of one control group and two experimental groups. The first experimental group, the attentive group, was exposed to the campaign material in a very direct, attentive way, whereas the second experimental group, the pre-attentive group, was exposed rather ...

Quantum experimental data in psychology and economics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
We prove a theorem which shows that a collection of experimental data of probabilistic weights related to decisions with respect to situations and their disjunction cannot be modeled within a classical probabilistic weight structure in case the experimental data contain the effect referred to as the 'disjunction effect' in psychology. We identify different experimental situations in psychology, more specifically in concept theory and in decision ...

Experiment, time and theory University of Antwerp
Deze verhandeling betreft een onderzoek naar het epistemologische statuut van experimentele resultaten: hoe kunnen we de informatie die experimenten ons opleveren karakteriseren? Meer specifiek wordt er onderzocht of we kunnen stellen dat een experiment op zich tot feitelijke kennis kan leiden. De motivatie voor deze onderzoeksvraag komt voort uit het wetenschappelijk realisme-debat, dat de vraag betreft of we kunnen stellen dat een succesvolle ...
Cognitive pyschology and mathematics education: a discussion with methodological and theoretical comments Ghent University
In this special issue, four studies on the psychology of mathematics learning and instruction are presented. In our discussion we critically reflect on the experiments that are presented in each paper; first from a methodological viewpoint, in which we compare experimental and quasi-experimental designs, and second from a cognitive psychological viewpoint, in which we focus on executive functions. We also discuss the causes and remedies of ...
