Do Individual Effects Reflect Quantitative or Qualitative Differences in Cognition?

2021

Rouder and Haaf (2020) posed the important question if there are some individuals whose behavior is not in accordance with well-established experimental effects and whether these individual differences are quantitative or qualitative in nature. In our commentary, we discuss the distinction between quantitative and qualitative individual differences and between individual and average causal effects and come to the conclusion that this is not a new question, but in fact one that has already been discussed by Gordon W. Allport (1937) and Donald B. Rubin (1974, 1978). Moreover, we critically examine their proposed rule of thumb to collect about 100 trials per experimental condition to reliably …

Kognitīvo uzdevumu ietekme uz stājas stabilitāti jauniem un veciem cilvēkiem

2017

Kopsavilkums Palielinoties cilvēka vecumam, palielinās kritienu un traumatisma riski. Tā kā Latvijā, kā arī Eiropā kopumā, palielinās populācijas novecošanās, kritienu un traumatisma riski pieaug, un to samazināšanai ir nepieciešami efektīvi profilaktiski pasākumi, kas uzlabotu īpaši gados veco cilvēku mobilitāti un novērstu kritienus. Pašreiz nav vienotu vadlīniju stājas stabilitātes pārbaužu metodikā un uzlabošanā, tādēļ ir nozīmīgi izprast faktorus, kas var ietekmēt posturālo kontroli. Tādejādi darbā tika izvirzīts mērķis noskaidrot kognitīvo procesu ietekmi uz stājas stabilitāti, kā arī izvērtēt antropometrisko parametru ietekmi uz līdzsvara saglabāšanu. Pētījumā piedalījās 60 izmeklēja…
