Resumen
WANG, Xiangyan et al. Cognitive Switching Affects Arithmetic Strategy Selection: evidence from Eye-gaze and Behavioral Measures. Anal. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.3, pp.571-579. ISSN 1695-2294. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/analesps.34.3.299141.
Although many studies of cognitive switching have been conducted, little is known about whether and how cognitive switching affects individuals’ use of arithmetic strategies. We used estimation and numerical comparison tasks within the operand recognition paradigm and the choice/no-choice paradigm to explore the effects of cognitive switching on the process of arithmetic strategy selection. Results showed that individuals’ performance in the baseline task was superior to that in the switching task. Presentation mode and cognitive switching clearly influenced eye-gaze patterns during strategy selection, with longer fixation duration in the number presentation mode than in the clock presentation mode. Furthermore, the number of fixation was greater in the switching task than it was in the baseline task. These results indicate that the effects of cognitive switching on arithmetic strategy selection are clearly constrained by the manner in which numbers are presented.
