The prediction of success in an ever-changing world: Assessing cognitive flexibility through dynamic testing. (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Beckmann, J. (2015). The prediction of success in an ever-changing world: Assessing cognitive flexibility through dynamic testing.

Using tests to assess intellectual capability is seen as a double-edged sword. On one hand it is considered an instrument of perpetuating socio-economic injustice, on the other hand, as it turns out, intelligence tests are the most successful tools a...

On costs of good intentions: The effect of problem contextualisation on knowledge acquisition (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Beckmann, J., & Goode, N. (2013). On costs of good intentions: The effect of problem contextualisation on knowledge acquisition.

In previous research it has been shown that a semantically familiar problem context can be detrimental to knowledge acquisition. The aim of this study was to test two competing explanations for this effect: goal adoption versus assumptions. Participa...

Does schooling have an impact on short-term memory? (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Tymms, P., Beckmann, N., Beckmann, J., Elliott, J., & Merell, C. (2013). Does schooling have an impact on short-term memory?.

Short-term memory (STM) capacity in the context of academic attainment is of great importance and studied extensively although experimental interventions to increase STM or working memory have yet to produce long-term gains. But is it possible that s... Read More about Does schooling have an impact on short-term memory?.
