(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)This study was undertaken to develop a computer simulation model which would be able to simulate cognitive-style-related learning behaviors for a group of students. Studies and research findings have suggested that behaviors ...
-
(2018-05-03)Anxiety disorders are some of the most common and debilitating forms of mental illnesses in our society. Understanding the behavioral and brain mechanisms of anxiety is essential in the development of novel therapeutic ...

(2016-04-13)The Texas A&M Forest Service (TFS) led the firefighting efforts during the most catastrophic wildfire season in Texas history. The 2011 wildfire season caused massive losses statewide including four million acres burned ...
-
(2011-08-08)This thesis documents the development of a video game about sustainable energy use that unites fun with learning. Many other educational games do not properly translate knowledge, facts, and lessons into the language of ...

(Private Enterprise Research Center, Texas A&M University; Texas A&M University. Library, 2014-04-01)When learning to play a game well, does it help to play against an opponent who makes the same sort of mistakes one tends to make or is it better to play against a procedurally rational algorithm, which never makes mistakes? ...

The effect of the pace of presentation on the learning of marketing information by elderly consumers (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)As the number of people in the United States over 65 years of age increases, the unique aspects of this segment become more important for marketers to understand. This study investigated how the pace at which information ...
-
(2013-02-12)Desirable difficulties during the learning process have been shown to enhance learning. In this study we examined how increasing contextual variation boosts memory. Specifically, we investigated how gradually making retrieval ...
-
(2021-11-18)Traditional power grids are a single-layered physical system, while smart grids are an extension of traditional power grids that are cyber-physical networks, and the main difference is smart grids include an information ...
-
(2020-03-17)Recent successes combine reinforcement learning algorithms and deep neural networks, despite reinforcement learning not being widely applied to robotics and real world scenarios. This can be attributed to the fact that ...
-
(2019-05-22)This paper/research is to identify the effectiveness of using Mixed Reality (MR) tool as a teaching method for students. The goal of this project is to show that MR can be incorporated as a significant form of learning for ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)The influence of additional time devoted to learning has been documented for the learner at the elementary-school level. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of additional learning time on the cognitive ...
-
(2021-01-22)Cube satellites (CubeSats) present a unique platform for monitoring localized processes anywhere within the Earth’s surface or atmosphere using novel data analysis techniques. Areas of interest can be targeted at certain ...
-
(2023-08-03)This thesis addresses the present-day challenges in multi-agent autonomous systems to develop a new generation of learning and optimization algorithms in the lack of perfect information. Multi-agent autonomous systems refer ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)This study investigated the relationship of learning style and teaching style to student academic achievement among nontraditional health professions in credit continuing education classes. It involved 256 adult students ...
-
(2019-06-12)Students are often overconfident (or otherwise metacognitively inaccurate) about how they will perform on exams, a condition that can have negative consequences for students as they may stop studying prematurely and perform ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)The goals of this study were twofold. First, attempts were made to identify the main effects of using different modalities of representation and different numbers of examples on concept learning. Second, the study attempted ...
-
(2015-08-24)The current project asked in two studies whether individual differences in working memory capacity (WMC) and cognitive style influence learning under multitasking conditions. In both studies, a median split on the ...
