Can chunk size differences explain developmental changes in lexical learning?
Smalle, Eleonore H M; Bogaerts, Louisa; Simonis, Morgane; Duyck, Wouter; Page, Michael P A; Edwards, Martin G.; Szmalec, Arnaud (2016-01-07)In three experiments, we investigated Hebb repetition learning (HRL) differences between children and adults, as a function of the type of item (lexical vs. sub-lexical) and the level of item-overlap between sequences. In ... -
Children retain implicitly learned phonological sequences better than adults: A longitudinal study
Smalle, Eleonore H M; Page, Michael; Duyck, Wouter; Edwards, Martin G.; Szmalec, Arnaud (2018-09-01)Whereas adults often rely on explicit memory, children appear to excel in implicit memory, which plays an important role in the acquisition of various cognitive skills, such as those involved in language. The current study ... -
The development of long-term lexical representations through Hebb repetition learning
Szmalec, Arnaud; Page, M.P.A.; Duyck, Wouter (2012)This study clarifies the involvement of short- and long-term memory in novel word-form learning, using the Hebb repetition paradigm. In Experiment 1, participants recalled sequences of visually presented syllables (e.g., ... -
The involvement of long-term serial-order memory in reading development : A longitudinal study
Bogaerts, Louisa; Szmalec, Arnaud; De Maeyer, Marjolijn; Page, Mike P A; Duyck, Wouter (2016-02-05)Recent findings suggest that Hebb repetition learning-a paradigmatic example of long-term serial-order learning-is impaired in adults with dyslexia. The current study further investigated the link between serial-order ... -
Linking memory and language : Evidence for a serial-order learning impairment in dyslexia
Bogaerts, Louisa; Szmalec, Arnaud; Hachmann, Wibke; Page, M.P.A.; Duyck, Wouter (2015-09-30)The present study investigated long-term serial-order learning impairments, operationalized as reduced Hebb repetition learning (HRL), in people with dyslexia. In a first multi-session experiment, we investigated both the ... -
Order or Disorder? Impaired Hebb Learning in Dyslexia
Szmalec, Arnaud; Loncke, Maaike; Page, M.P.A.; Duyck, Wouter (2011-09)The present study offers an integrative account proposing that dyslexia and its various associated cognitive impairments reflect an underlying deficit in the long-term learning of serial-order information, here operationalized ...
