Beckmann, J. (2018). Deferential trespassing: Looking through and at an intersectional lens. New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2018(161), https://doi.org/10.1002/cad.20243

In this article, I comment on the prospect of integrating an intersectionality perspective into the developmental sciences. I do this by sharing impressions, insights, and questions that have emerged whilst attempting to look at and to look through a...

Moderators of learning and performance trajectories in microworld simulations: Too soon to give up on intellect!? (2018)
Journal Article
Birney, D., Beckmann, J., Beckmann, N., Double, K., & Whittingham, K. (2018). Moderators of learning and performance trajectories in microworld simulations: Too soon to give up on intellect!?. Intelligence, 68, 128-140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.intell.2018.03.008

The burgeoning increase in the importance given to non-cognitive factors in complex decisions making, has led to calls to question intelligence as the primary explanatory model of success. Features of a business microworld simulation were experimenta... Read More about Moderators of learning and performance trajectories in microworld simulations: Too soon to give up on intellect!?.

To talk or not to talk: A review of situational antecedents of willingness to communicate in the second language classroom (2018)
Journal Article
