The Effects of Past Betrayals On Trust BehaviorLam, Trenton D 01 January 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Experiencing interpersonal betrayals or trust violations can often create negative consequences for victims when creating new relationships. Past studies have found that trauma from previous betrayals can impair trust and thereby trust behavior for victims in the future. However, little research has been done to empirically characterize this connection and existing studies have provided conflicting results. The goal of this study was to explore the relationship between past trust violations, measured through the Brief Betrayal Trauma Survey (BBTS), and present self-reported trust and trust behavior. Differences in trust behavior between those with or without a history of betrayals was measured through an experimental economic trust game. Results found that those with a history of betrayal trauma had marginally lowered self-rated trust in strangers. While a history of betrayal trauma did not yield main effects on either first or average investments in the trust game, those with a history of betrayal had similar first and average investments in partners regardless of visual cue trustworthiness. Victims of betrayal seem to lack discriminatory trust behavior or possibly disregard visual cues entirely. These findings add to the current understanding of how victims of interpersonal betrayal interpret and respond to visual cues both initially and across multiple interactions and is especially relevant for those who aim to form close relationships with these individuals such as care providers.

VISUAL CUES : A WAY TO ENHANCE ACCURATE JUDGEMENTS OF TRAVEL SPEED IN DRIVER SIMULATORSSöderström, Malin January 2023 (has links)
Drivers in simulators tend to drive faster than in a real car. The study aimed to examine if visual cues impact driver velocity in a simulator. This is important because of the tendency for users of to drive faster in simulators than in authentic driving situations. This is supposed to be caused by the lack of sufficient cues in the simulated environment to convey motion. The hypothesis advocates that the usage of visual cues would make simulated motion cues more realistic to assist the driver to make accurate judgements of their driving speed. Accurate judgements would in turn result in less speeding in the driver simulator. The experiment was conducted in a driver simulator in a collaboration with SAFE trafikskola. The experiment compared two conditions where visual cues were more and less present. The data was complimented with a survey to gather additional information. The result from the t-test showed a significant effect on the measured velocity, whereas the two-way ANOVA yielded no such impact. The repeated measures ANOVA contributed with significant results on the difference between the points of measure and gave no significant main effect between conditions. Together with the complimentary survey the conclusion was made that the usage of visual cues in a driver simulator can affect the velocity of the driver. The knowledge regarding visual cues in a simulated environments could be used to improve driver simulators. Future research has the possibility to investigate motion cues from other modalities than vision to increase realism in driver simulators.

Utility of Peripheral Visual Cues in Planning and Controlling Adaptive GaitGraci, Valentina, Elliott, David, Buckley, John 01 1900 (has links)
No / The purpose of this article is to determine the relative importance to adaptive locomotion of peripheral visual cues provided by different parts of the visual field.
Twelve subjects completed obstacle crossing trials while wearing goggles that provided four visual conditions: upper visual field occlusion, lower visual field occlusion (LO), circumferential peripheral visual field occlusion (CPO), and full vision. The obstacle was either positioned as a lone structure or within a doorframe.
Given that subjects completed the task safely without cues from the lower or peripheral visual field, this suggests that subjects used exteroceptive information provided in a feed-forward manner under these conditions. LO and CPO led to increased foot placement distance from the obstacle and to increased toe clearance over the obstacle with a reduced crossing-walking velocity. The increased variability of dependent measures under LO and CPO suggests that exproprioceptive information from the peripheral visual field is generally used to provide online control of lower limbs. The presence of the doorframe facilitated lead-foot placement under LO by providing exproprioceptive cues in the upper visual field. However, under CPO conditions, the doorframe led to a further reduction in crossing velocity and increase in trail-foot horizontal distance and lead-toe clearance, which may have been because of concerns about hitting the doorframe with the head and/or upper body.
Our findings suggest that exteroceptive cues are provided by the central visual field and are used in a feed-forward manner to plan the gait adaptations required to safely negotiate an obstacle, whereas exproprioceptive information is provided by the peripheral visual field and used online to “fine tune” adaptive gait. The loss of the upper and lower peripheral visual fields together had a greater effect on adaptive gait compared with the loss of the lower visual field alone, likely because of the absence of lamellar flow visual cues used to control egomotion.

The Active Ingredients of Integral Stimulation Treatment: The Efficacy of Auditory, Visual, and Auditory-Visual Cues for Treatment of Childhood Apraxia of SpeechCondoluci, Lauren, 0000-0001-8760-0145 January 2020 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to determine the relative efficacy of cueing modalities employed in Integral Stimulation (IS) treatment for childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Previous literature has supported the use of IS for children with CAS, though there are no studies that evaluate the active ingredients of IS. This study aimed to examine the efficacy of single- and multi-modality cues in IS treatment.
The experiment was administered as a single-case, alternating treatments design consisting of three conditions (auditory-only, visual-only, and simultaneous auditory and visual). Two participants with CAS received IS treatment in every condition during each session. Probes were administered prior to starting every other session (once per week), consisting of practiced and control targets that were balanced for complexity and functionality. Perceptual accuracy of productions was rated on a 3-point scale and standardized effect sizes were calculated for each condition.
Each participant demonstrated different effects in regard to modality and treatment effects. The visual-only condition yielded the greatest effect for one participant, followed by the auditory-only cues. The other participant displayed no significant effects in any condition nor a treatment effect.
The results of this study suggest that single-modality cues may be more beneficial for some children with CAS than the clinically used simultaneous auditory-visual multi-modality cue. The significant effect of the visual-only condition in one participant indicates that visual-only cues may bypass an impaired auditory feedback system and support speech motor learning, though more research is required. / Public Health

Effect of visual cues and outcome feedback on physics problem solving in an online systemWeliweriya Liyanage, Nandana January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Physics / Nobel S. Rebello / With the progressive development of the educational technology, online learning systems are becoming a prominent feature in education today. We conducted a study to explore the effects of visual cues and outcome feedback on learning experience of students in an online environment. Our study was a follow up study to a previous research, which demonstrated the effectiveness of visual cues and feedback to improve physics problem solving. The participants (N=164) were enrolled in an algebra-based introductory level physics course at a U.S. Midwestern University. Participants completed a sequence of conceptual physics problems in an online environment. The study used a between subjects 2×2 quasi experimental design. Two groups of participants received visual cues and two did not receive cues. Two of the groups of participants received outcome feedback and two did not receive feedback. The effect of visual cues, feedback and their combination on the correctness of students’ responses to the online questions was analyzed. Implications of the study for online learning systems are discussed.

The role of peripheral visual cues in planning and controlling movement : an investigation of which cues provided by different parts of the visual field influence the execution of movement and how they work to control upper and lower limb motionGraci, Valentina January 2010 (has links)
Visual cues have previously been classified as visual exproprioceptive, when defining the relative position of the body within the environment and are continuously updated while moving (online), and visual exteroceptive when describing static features of the environment which are typically elaborated offline (feedforward). However peripheral visual cues involved in the control of movement have not previously been clearly defined using this classification. Hence the role played by peripheral visual cues in the planning and/or online control of movement remains unclear. The aim of this thesis was to provide a systematic understanding of the importance of peripheral visual cues in several types of movement, namely overground locomotion, adaptive gait, postural stability and reaching and grasping. 3D motion capture techniques were used to collect limb and whole body kinematics during such movements. Visual peripheral cues were manipulated by visual field occlusion conditions or by the employment of point-lights in a dark room. Results showed that the visual cues provided by different parts of the peripheral visual field are mainly used for online fine tuning of limb trajectory towards a target (either a floor-based obstacle or an object to grasp). The absence of peripheral visual cues while moving disrupted the spatio-temporal dynamic relationship between subject and target and resulted in increased margins of safety between body and target and increased time and variability of several dependent measures. These findings argue in favour of the classification of peripheral visual cues as visual exproprioceptive.

Previous issue date: 2009 / Resumo: Em matas de restinga da Ilha do Cardoso (SP), forrageadoras da formiga arborícola crepuscular/noturna Odontomachus hastatus podem caçar a > 8 m do ninho. O forrageamento se dá principalmente no dossel, em uma intricada rede de galhos, onde esta formiga deve ser capaz de aprender o caminho de retorno ao ninho. O ambiente do dossel e seu hábito noturno tornam esta espécie um interessante modelo para pesquisa em orientação espacial. Para investigar os mecanismos de orientação empregados por O. hastatus, realizamos experimentos sob condições controladas em laboratório, usando uma arena circular onde marcas visuais e químicas poderiam ser manipuladas. Testamos a influência de: (i) um padrão de dossel artificial; (ii) pistas visuais horizontais; (iii) uma pista tridimensional (cilindro); e (iv) pistas químicas na superfície do chão da arena. Nossos resultados demonstram que O. hastatus se guia principalmente por pistas visuais (pistas do dossel e pistas horizontais), o que está de acordo com o encontrado em formigas diurnas. A luminosidade noturna (lua/estrelas) é aparentemente suficiente para produzir silhuetas contrastantes do dossel e vegetação circundante, e podem ser importantes referenciais de
orientação. Por outro lado, substâncias químicas não funcionaram como pistas para o
retorno de forrageadoras. Ao contrário do chão plano da arena circular, é possível que marcas químicas sejam importantes na marcação de rotas arbóreas bifurcadas de O. hastatus. O uso de pistas químicas por formigas é geralmente considerado importante para orientação noturna e este trabalho é a primeira demonstração experimental do uso de pistas visuais por uma formiga noturna e arborícola. O presente estudo contribui para o desenvolvimento de estudos comparativos sobre a evolução da orientação espacial em formigas e outros insetos. / Abstract: In the 'restinga' sandy plain forest of Ilha do Cardoso (SP), foragers of the
crepuscular/nocturnal arboreal ant Odontomacus hastatus may hunt > 8 m away from their nests. Foraging takes place mainly in the canopy amongst the intricate net of branches and bifurcations, where ant foragers must be able to learn the way back to the nest. The canopy environment together with the nocturnal habit makes this species an interesting model for research on spatial orientation. In order to investigate orientation mechanisms employed by O. hastatus, we performed controlled laboratory experiments using a circular arena where chemical and visual cues could be manipulated. We tested the influence of: (i) an artificial canopy pattern; (ii) horizontal visual cues; (iii) a tridimensional cue (cylinder); (iv) chemical cues on the ground surface. Our results demonstrate that O. hastatus is guided mainly by visual cues (canopy and horizontal cues), which is in accordance with other
diurnal arboreal ants. Nocturnal luminosity (moon/stars) is apparently sufficient to produce contrasting silhouettes from the canopy and surrounding vegetation, which may be important as orientation references. On the other hand, chemical substances provided no cues to returning foragers. Contrary to the plain floor of the circular arena, it is possible that chemical cues are important for marking bifurcated arboreal routes of O. hastatus. The use of chemical cues by ants is generally considered / Mestrado / Ecologia / Mestre em Ecologia

The cognitive underpinnings of non-symbolic comparison task performanceClayton, Sarah January 2016 (has links)
Over the past twenty years, the Approximate Number System (ANS), a cognitive system for representing non-symbolic quantity information, has been the focus of much research attention. Psychologists seeking to understand how individuals learn and perform mathematics have investigated how this system might underlie symbolic mathematical skills. Dot comparison tasks are commonly used as measures of ANS acuity, however very little is known about the cognitive skills that are involved in completing these tasks. The aim of this thesis was to explore the factors that influence performance on dot comparison tasks and discuss the implications of these findings for future research and educational interventions. The first study investigated how the accuracy and reliability of magnitude judgements is influenced by the visual cue controls used to create dot array stimuli. This study found that participants performances on dot comparison tasks created with different visual cue controls were unrelated, and that stimuli generation methods have a substantial influence on test-retest reliability. The studies reported in the second part of this thesis (Studies 2, 3, 4 and 5) explored the role of inhibition in dot comparison task performance. The results of these studies provide evidence that individual differences in inhibition may, at least partially, explain individual differences in dot comparison task performance. Finally, a large multi-study re-analysis of dot comparison data investigated whether individuals take account of numerosity information over and above the visual cues of the stimuli when comparing dot arrays. This analysis revealed that dot comparison task performance may not reflect numerosity processing independently from visual cue processing for all participants, particularly children. This novel evidence may provide some clarification for conflicting results in the literature regarding the relationship between ANS acuity and mathematics achievement. The present findings call into question whether dot comparison tasks should continue to be used as valid measures of ANS acuity.
