Programming experience promotes higher STEM motivation among first-grade girls.
Journal of experimental child psychology
Apr 21, 2017
The gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) engagement is large and persistent. This gap is significantly larger in technological fields such as computer science and engineering than in math and science. Gender gaps begin earl...
Identifying Future Drinkers: Behavioral Analysis of Monkeys Initiating Drinking to Intoxication is Predictive of Future Drinking Classification.
Alcoholism, clinical and experimental research
Feb 16, 2017
BACKGROUND: The Monkey Alcohol Tissue Research Resource (MATRR) is a repository and analytics platform for detailed data derived from well-documented nonhuman primate (NHP) alcohol self-administration studies. This macaque model has demonstrated cate...
Motivation, expectations, and usability of a driven gait orthosis in stroke patients and their therapists.
Topics in stroke rehabilitation
Dec 20, 2016
BACKGROUND: In the development of efficacious driven gait orthoses (DGO), it is an added value to consider patients' and therapists' perspectives concerning robot-assisted gait training (RAGT). A better understanding of these issues may improve the p...
The body of knowledge: On the role of the living body in grounding embodied cognition.
Bio Systems
Aug 16, 2016
Embodied cognition is a hot topic in both cognitive science and AI, despite the fact that there still is relatively little consensus regarding what exactly constitutes 'embodiment'. While most embodied AI and cognitive robotics research views the bod...
Motivating smokers to quit using computer-generated letters that target either reduction or cessation: A population-based randomized controlled trial among smokers who do not intend to quit.
Drug and alcohol dependence
Jul 15, 2016
BACKGROUND: This study examined the long-term efficacy of individualized counseling letters that targeted either smoking abstinence or reducing the number of cigarettes smoked per day to promote future cessation.
Novel plasticity rule can explain the development of sensorimotor intelligence.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Oct 26, 2015
Grounding autonomous behavior in the nervous system is a fundamental challenge for neuroscience. In particular, self-organized behavioral development provides more questions than answers. Are there special functional units for curiosity, motivation, ...
Feasibility study into self-administered training at home using an arm and hand device with motivational gaming environment in chronic stroke.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Oct 9, 2015
BACKGROUND: Assistive and robotic training devices are increasingly used for rehabilitation of the hemiparetic arm after stroke, although applications for the wrist and hand are trailing behind. Furthermore, applying a training device in domestic set...

Evaluating the User Experience of Exercising Reaching Motions With a Robot That Predicts Desired Movement Difficulty.
Journal of motor behavior
May 6, 2015
The notion of an optimal difficulty during practice has been articulated in many areas of cognitive psychology: flow theory, the challenge point framework, and desirable difficulties. Delivering exercises at a participant's desired difficulty has the...
Evaluating the usability of an interactive, bi-lingual, touchscreen-enabled breastfeeding educational programme: application of Nielson's heuristics.
Journal of innovation in health informatics
Mar 5, 2015
The study purpose was to conduct heuristic evaluation of an interactive, bilingual touchscreen-enabled breastfeeding educational programme for Hispanic women living in rural settings in Nebraska. Three raters conducted the evaluation during May 2013 ...
Effects of robotically modulating kinematic variability on motor skill learning and motivation.
Journal of neurophysiology
Feb 11, 2015
It is unclear how the variability of kinematic errors experienced during motor training affects skill retention and motivation. We used force fields produced by a haptic robot to modulate the kinematic errors of 30 healthy adults during a period of p...
