Ce travail examine les effets d'une démarche originale de portfolio de formation-évaluation sur le développement de dimensions cognitives d'apprentissage chez des étudiants de licence 3 de sciences de l'éducation et de la formation. Au moyen d’une méthodologie mixte et hybride, nous montrons comment la démarche contribue à ce développement. L’accom...

While academic stress is prevalent among students, there is a lack of research on learning methods that could contribute to its regulation. Portfolios have gained significant attention in the past two decades, acknowledged as valuable tools for enhancing cognitive and regulation processes. Deviating from traditional approaches and diminishing the i...

Seeing objects usually grasped with a power or a precision grip (e.g., an apple vs. a cherry) potentiates power-grip and precision-grip responses, respectively. An embodied account suggests that this effect occurs because object conceptual representations would lie on a motor simulation process. A new account, named the size-coding account, argues...

The Simon effect usually refers to the observation that responding to a nonspatial feature of a stimulus is faster when the position of the stimulus (task-irrelevant) matches the position of the to-be-executed response. The Simon effect can disappear when the Simon task is preceded by a spatial compatibility task with an incompatible mapping. In th...

The simulationist approach assumes the possibility of an interaction between access to knowledge in memory and perception. Indeed, the same perceptual representations and/or neural structures seem to be used. In this article, we test the possibility of such an interaction in the context of color perception, while overcoming the criticism made again...

Résumé L’approche simulationniste envisage une possible interaction entre l’accès à des connaissances en mémoire et la perception. En effet, les mêmes représentations perceptives et/ou structures neuronales seraient utilisées. Dans cet article, nous testons la possibilité d’une telle interaction dans le cadre de la perception de la couleur, tout en...

“How can perception be altered by language?” is the fundamental question of this article. Indeed, various studies have pointed out the influence of colour-related knowledge on object and colour perception, evoked by linguistic stimuli. Here the relevance of the simulationist approach is assumed in order to explain this influence, where the understa...

Recent results from Cannon, Hayes, and Tipper (2010) have established that the Action Compatibility Effect (ACE) is hedonically marked and elicits a genuine positive reaction. In this work, we aim to show that the hedonic marking of the ACE has incidental consequences on affective judgment. For this, we used the affective priming paradigm principle...

This work shows the influence of odour condition in a hedonic evaluation task of colour. Perceptive effects of colours on the perception of odours are already known. This research is focused on the opposite cross-modal effect of the olfactory system on the visual system. During two pre experiments six colours (three pleasant/three unpleasant) and t...

This study explores the influence of typical size during a categorization task. The specificity of this experimental work is based on the homogeneity of the graphic stimuli size. We have created a typical size standard of our stimuli, that concerns the real size of the objects represented by the drawings of homogeneous sizes. Then, a priming experi...

Cet article porte sur l’influence de la taille typique dans une tâche de catégorisation. L’originalité de notre travail repose sur l’homogénéité de la taille graphique des stimuli. Nous avons commencé par construire une norme de taille typique des stimuli, celle-ci porte sur la taille réelle des objets représentés par les dessins de tailles homogèn...

ABSTRACT. Integrated perception, sensory systems in interaction: the ear is deaf what the eye does not see. The case of secondary stimulus in a vision - hearing task and the hypothesis of sensory systems hitching. Following a brief review of previous works about crossmodal effects, this work aims to show an effect of a secondary visual stimulus in...
