Book excerpt: Vous désirez en apprendre davantage sur la mémoire de travail ? Cet ouvrage est fait pour vous ! La mémoire de travail est un concept central de la psychologie cognitive, et un outil cognitif essentiel de la vie quotidienne. Au cours des 50 dernières années, nombre de recherches s’y sont consacrées, faisant évoluer nos connaissances sur sa structure, son fonctionnement et son rôle dans l’architecture cognitive. Ainsi, de nombreux modèles alternatifs de cette mémoire ont été développés. Pierre Barrouillet et Valérie Camos, deux experts reconnus pour leurs recherches dans ce domaine, dressent un panorama complet de la mémoire de travail : la genèse de ce concept et les différents modèles le définissant, mais aussi les débats scientifiques et les points de vue partagés sur le sujet. Ils exposent les diverses implications de la mémoire de travail dans le domaine du développement cognitif, des apprentissages scolaires ou encore des pathologies neurodéveloppementales, en développant des notions théoriques et pratiques destinées aux étudiants, aux enseignants et aux praticiens. Un ouvrage de référence sur la mémoire de travail, les dernières découvertes scientifiques en la matière et leurs implications concrètes. À PROPOS DES AUTEURS Valérie Camos est professeure de psychologie du développement à l’Université de Fribourg, éditrice en chef de la revue scientifique Developmental Review et présidente de la Société Européenne de Mémoire de Travail (EWoMS). Pierre Barrouillet est professeur honoraire en psychologie du développement à l’Université de Genève. Ses recherches portent sur la mémoire de travail, le raisonnement et la cognition numérique.

Book D  veloppement de la m  moire de travail

Download or read book D veloppement de la m moire de travail written by Nathalie Pross and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La nature du trouble mnésique des faibles lecteurs fait encore l'objet de débats dans la littérature. Pour certains, il serait spécifique au matériel verbal, pour d'autres il serait de nature plus générale. L'hypothèse défendue ici suggère que les déficits des faibles lecteurs seraient à la fois spécifiques et généraux. Cette hypothèse est examinée en étudiant les processus cognitifs de la MdT impliqués dans les tâches cognitives complexes, puis dans la lecture, selon une approche développementale qui permet de tenir compte de l'expertise des enfants dans les traitements langagiers et de l'évolution de la MdT au cours de l'enfance. A cet effet, une batterie d'épreuves mnésiques adaptées pour des passations avec des jeunes enfants a été élaborée. Des résultats intéressants relatifs au développement de la MdT et à la nature des différences individuelles en mémoire, ont pu être dégagés. L'importance de notions comme "contraintes de la tâche" ou "expertise du sujet" y est soulignée

Book The Noun Phrase

Download or read book The Noun Phrase written by Jan Rijkhoff and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2004 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan Rijkhoff investigates noun phrases--linguistic constructions with the noun as central element--in a representative sample of the world's 6000 languages and proposes a semantic model to describe their underlying structure. Assuming no knowledge of any formal or functional theory of grammar, he shows that the noun phrase word order patterns of any language can be derived from three universal ordering principles and furthermore that these principles are elaborations of a general ordering strategy, by which elements that belong together semantically tend to occur together syntactically.

Download or read book A Velvet Empire written by David Todd and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How France's elites used soft power to pursue their imperial ambitions in the nineteenth century After Napoleon's downfall in 1815, France embraced a mostly informal style of empire, one that emphasized economic and cultural influence rather than military conquest. A Velvet Empire is a global history of French imperialism in the nineteenth century, providing new insights into the mechanisms of imperial collaboration that extended France's power from the Middle East to Latin America and ushered in the modern age of globalization. David Todd shows how French elites pursued a cunning strategy of imperial expansion in which conspicuous commodities such as champagne and silk textiles, together with loans to client states, contributed to a global campaign of seduction. French imperialism was no less brutal than that of the British. But while Britain widened its imperial reach through settler colonialism and the acquisition of far-flung territories, France built a "velvet" empire backed by frequent military interventions and a broadening extraterritorial jurisdiction. Todd demonstrates how France drew vast benefits from these asymmetric, imperial-like relations until a succession of setbacks around the world brought about their unravelling in the 1870s. A Velvet Empire sheds light on France's neglected contribution to the conservative reinvention of modernity and offers a new interpretation of the resurgence of French colonialism on a global scale after 1880. This panoramic book also highlights the crucial role of collaboration among European empires during this period—including archrivals Britain and France—and cooperation with indigenous elites in facilitating imperial expansion and the globalization of capitalism.
