Development of Operation-Specific Lexical Consistency Effect in Arithmetic Word Problem Solving
Published in Taiwanese Psychological Association (TPA) 61st Annual Meeting, Taipei, Taiwan, 2022
We investigate age-related differences in lexical consistency effects on arithmetic word problem solving. Children showed a consistency effect on accuracy in addition problems, while adolescents displayed an adult-like pattern, with consistency affecting reaction time for addition problems. The findings suggest that lexical consistency influences problem-solving precision in younger children, but as they mature, their processing aligns with adult patterns.

The Influence of Emotional Schema and Color Congruency on the Trustworthiness of News
Published in Capstone Program, Department of Psychology, National ChengChi University, Taipei, Taiwan, 2022
This study explores how 💭emotional schemas and 🎨color congruency influence the perceived trustworthiness of news. We found that when the theme color aligns with the emotional schema, participants rated the news as more trustworthy. The research highlights the interaction between emotion and color in message processing, offering insights into how emotional cues can enhance the persuasive power of information.

Age-Related Differences in Brain Responses in Mathematical Problem-Solving Among Children and Adolescents
Published in Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS) 31st Annual Meeting, Toronto, Canada, 2024
This study is the neuroimaging version of our previous behavioral research. We investigate age-related differences in brain responses during mathematical problem-solving between children and adolescents. Using fMRI, we found that adolescents show a more complex neural response, with stronger activation in the fronto-insular-parietal network when solving problems with lexically consistent descriptions. In contrast, children exhibited consistent brain activity regardless of lexical consistency. These findings suggest that the maturation of cognitive mechanisms plays a critical role in how we approach problem-solving as we age, emphasizing the importance of targeted educational interventions during adolescence.
