Presenting research that bears on important conceptual issues in developmental psychology, Developmental Review: Perspectives in Behavior and Cognition provides lifespan, aging, infancy, child, and adolescent behavioral scientists with authoritative articles that reflect current thinking and cover significant scientific developments. The journal emphasizes human developmental processes and gives particular attention to research that is relevant to developmental psychology. This research has fundamental implications for the fields of cognitive science, developmental sciences, decision sciences, pediatrics, psychiatry, and neuroscience. Developmental Review publishes two types of articles: (1) theory papers that advance new empirically tested hypotheses or frameworks and (2) literature reviews that include but go beyond summaries, instead rigorously interpreting findings about important phenomena. Unlike many other journals, we do not publish empirical reports, although data can be used to test and illustrate new theories. That is, the journal publishes original integrative reviews of empirical studies from important segments of the developmental psychology literature, and it also publishes original theoretical articles on important segments of the developmental psychology literature. For both types of submissions, we emphasize research that tests hypotheses about underlying processes or mechanisms of behavior. Manuscripts are also reviewed for their novelty, currency, and relevance to our readership. Features Integrated collections of papers on a single theme Reviews of the literature Theoretical statements Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

INTRODUCTION Presenting research that bears on important conceptual issues in developmental psychology, Developmental Review: Perspectives in Behavior and Cognition provides lifespan, aging, infancy, child, and adolescent behavioral scientists with authoritative articles that reflect current thinking and cover significant scientific developments. The journal emphasizes human developmental processes and gives particular attention to research that is relevant to developmental psychology. This research has fundamental implications for the fields of cognitive science, developmental sciences, decision sciences, pediatrics, psychiatry, and neuroscience. Developmental Review publishes two types of articles: (1) theory papers that advance new empirically tested hypotheses or frameworks and (2) literature reviews that include but go beyond summaries, instead rigorously interpreting findings about important phenomena. Unlike many other journals, we do not publish empirical reports, although data can be used to test and illustrate new theories. That is, the journal publishes original integrative reviews of empirical studies from important segments of the developmental psychology literature, and it also publishes original theoretical articles on important segments of the developmental psychology literature. For both types of submissions, we emphasize research that tests hypotheses about underlying processes or mechanisms of behavior.

  • The Reasoning Skills and Thinking Dispositions of Problem Gamblers: a Dual-Process Taxonomy
    Journal of Behavioral Decision Making J. Behav. Dec. Making, 20: 103–124 (2007) Published online 22 September 2006 in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/bdm.544 The Reasoning Skills and Thinking Dispositions of Problem Gamblers: A Dual-Process Taxonomy MAGGIE E. TOPLAK1*, ELEANOR LIU2, ROBYN MACPHERSON3, TONY TONEATTO2 and KEITH E. STANOVICH3 1York University, Canada 2Centre forAddiction and Mental Health,Toronto, Canada 3University of Toronto, Canada ABSTRACT We present a taxonomy that categorizes the types of cognitive failure that might result in persistent gambling. The taxonomy subsumes most previous theories of gambling behavior, and it defines three categories of cognitive difficulties that might lead to gambling problems: The autonomous set of systems (TASS) override failure, missing TASS output, and mindware problems. TASS refers to the autonomous set of systems in the brain (which are executed rapidly and without volition, are not under conscious control, and are not dependent on analytic system output). Mindware consists of rules, procedures, and strategies available for explicit retrieval. Seven of the eight tasks administered to pathological gamblers, gamblers with subclinical symptoms, and control participants were associated with problem gambling, and five of the eight were significant predictors in analyses that statistically controlled for age and cognitive competence. In a commonality analysis, an indicator from each of the three categories of cognitive difficulties explained significant unique variance in problem gambling, indicating that each of the categories had some degree of predictive specificity. Copyright # 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. key words dual-process theories; problem gambling; human reasoning; intuitive and analytic processing Pathological gambling is defined as ‘‘persistent and recurrent maladaptive gambling behavior that disrupts personal, family, and vocational pursuits’’ (DSM-IV-TR, American Psychiatric Association, 2000, p.

  • Meta-Effectiveness Excerpts from Cognitive Productivity: Using Knowledge to Become Profoundly Effective
    Meta-effectiveness Excerpts from Cognitive Productivity: Using Knowledge to Become Profoundly Effective Luc P. Beaudoin, Ph.D. (Cognitive Science) Adjunct Professor of Education Adjunct Professor of Cognitive Science Simon Fraser University EDB 7505, 8888 University Drive Burnaby, BC V5A 1S6 Canada [email protected] Skype: LPB2ha http://sfu.ca/~lpb/ Last Revised: 2015–05–31 (See revision history) I recently wrote a blog post containing some importants concepts for understanding adult development of competence (including “learning to learn”). The overarching concept of that topic, and Cognitive Productivity, is meta-effectiveness, i.e., the abilities and dispositions (or “mindware”) to use knowledge to become more effective. Effectance is a component of meta-effectiveness. The concepts of meta-effectiveness and effectance being both subtle and important, I am publishing in this document a few excerpts from my book (Cognitive Productivity) to elucidate them. You will notice that I am critical of the position espoused by Dennett (e.g., in Inside Jokes) that the tendency to think is pleasure- seeking in disguise. Also, I’ve modernized White’s concept of effectance, aligning it with Sloman’s concept of architecture-based motivation. I have also updated David Perkins’ concept of mindware.

Stanovich of the University of Toronto, interviewed by Richard F. West of James Madison University on July 13th, 2008. This is Keith Stanovich speaking. Dr. West will be asking the questions as the interviewer. West: What adult experiences were important to your intellectual development? For example, what are the origins of your interest in child development and what individuals were important to your intellectual development? Stanovich: Well, in terms of individuals, again, there's a reason you're doing this interview. The key thing about my intellectual history is--to understand about it is that it has been characterized by very long term collaborations, including the one with Richard West and I that had its origins in 1974 when we were graduate students at the University of Michigan and conjoined our interests to study the psychology of reading, but in particular, reading acquisition and the development of reading skills.
