Title : The Applied Cognitive Psychology of Attention: A Step Closer to Understanding Magic Tricks. 2. Author : Irina Demacheva, Martin Ladouceur, Ellis Steinberg, Galina Pogossova and Amir Raz. 3. Publisher : Applied Cognitive Psychology Journal (2012) Published online 12 January 2012 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) This article is a research article of how human react and how a person who done a routine magic trick relate to the Cognitive Psychology of Attention. The research involved over 1000 participants to see how magician working on trick to vanish a pen. The participant is aged between 13 to 90 years old and mostly are the students of the Mc Gill University conceiving 31% men and 69% women. 14% of respondent says they had previously seen the trick with 22% of them know how the magician has perform the trick although 22% of them know the method of the trick but only 37% of them give the correct explanations. Based on this research, they finding suggest that decoupling the when and where attention modules may play an important role in creating magic effects and also the formulation of an initial explanation may hinder the problem-solving process. 2. SUMMARY – 2ND ARTICLE. Article details: 1. Title : The Effect of Chromaticity Varies With Object Identification Response: Speeded Naming versus Recognition. 2. Author : Carolyn S. Ryan, Nancy S. Hemmes and Bruce L. Brown 3. Publisher : The Psychological Record Journal (2003) Published online in Academic Search Complete via OUM Digital Library. This is the research of how participants react to the effect of color, object and its size with three experiment in order to know how participants react when presence versus absence experiment and relate result with the cognitive psychology theory of recognition. The variety of discrimination response have been used previously in order to know how it will affect the human recognition experiment such as naming, speeding naming, verification and classification responses. The participant is 32 university undergraduates student ranging from 17 to 52 years old with 21 female and 11 were male. They were given three experiments in order to find out the chromaticity. The results have implications for the nature of the representations that mediate different forms of object identification responding. The cognitive and behavioral interpretations in the proceeding to several of object identification process. 3. SUMMARY – 3RD ARTICLE. Article details: 1. Title : An Evolutionary Upgrade of Cognitive Load Theory: Using the Human Motor System and Collaboration to Support the Learning Complex Cognitive Tasks. 2. Author : Fred Paas, John Sweller. 3. Publisher : Educ Psychol Rev (2012). Published online on 6 September 2011 at Springerlink.com This article is briefly explains of the evolution of the new era of cognitive theory by using the human motor system to deal with the complex cognitive tasks. Cognitive load theory is to provide instruction strategies based on previous experiment. This process is based on the human memory, which is limitation due to changes in long-term memory while learning. So the working memory in need for amendment. These limitations occur as human brain working memory will not automatically evolve to acquire. This working memory will reduced during acquiring novel information as it has evolved to process, known as biologically primary information. In this article, they had suggests several cognitive load effects to be used to facilitate the acquisition of biologically secondary knowledge. Besides that, they also indicate how human cognitive architecture can provide cognitive load researchers with novel perspectives of their findings and discussion. 4. SUMMARY – 4TH ARTICLE. Article details: 1. Title : Revolution in the Cognitive Psychology of Development. 2. Author : Elena A. Sergienko 3. Publisher : Psychology in Russia: State of the Art. 2009. In this article, the author has generalized the recent revolutionary changes in the cognitive psychology of development, with the touching of the basic concept of psychology. She also discussed about the problem of theoretical changes connected with systemic evolutionary approach, dynamic nonlinear system theory and connectionism. There are four basic of revolutionary changes which is are; sensory-motor infant to representative one; from the leading roles of the activity to the unity of perception and action; about the continuity of the subject formation, instead of axiom of subjectivity of the adult, mature person; about the continuance of genetic and environmental instead of social primary in the mental development of a person. 5. REVIEW – 1ST ARTICLE. A. Theoretical Framework. The authors in this article are using a lot of theories in order to relate it with the experiment. For example, the authors has quoted a phrase from Barnhart, 2010; Hergovich, 2004; Kuhn & Land, 2006; Over the past decade, empirical studies have increasingly yoked magic-the art of producing illusions by sleight of hand-and cognitive science. And then the authors also quote a phrase that against the first phrase which is are, some scholars argue that magic can only serve cognitive science as a methodological tool. The authors has done a good work in this theoretical issue as they selected the oldest and most central issues in psychological science – the magical arts bind attention. This definitely related to the applied cognitive psychology of attention. B. Research Methodology. The authors have selected mostly a student from McGill University, Montreal, Canada as their research participants. The remaining were friends and acquaintances of the former group. They used a large number of participants which is 1003 person. Meanwhile on the materials aspect, they have used special cognitive parameters – LimeSurvey online application survey tool. Complete with demographic question, audiovisual clip and specific questions. And then they used mute video clip displayed the magician action. And the last part in methodology is data analysis. Once again they have used a software to performed the statistical analysis which is a software is Statistical Analysis Software version 9.2. The complied and collect the data extensively including the linear and logistic regression to determine the predictors. C. RESULTS. The authors compiled the results equal to percentage. It was a bit complicated to understand as they used the reversed style result explanation. The authors also include confirmatory analysis in the result section which is divided into correctness of explanations and changing the explanations. D. DISCUSSION. The authors have provided very good explanations in this section with including a few graph, regression table and a brief discussion regards the experiment. E. CONCLUSION. Quite amazingly, in this section, the authors provide quite simple conclusion with less than 200 words. 6. REVIEW – 2ND ARTICLES. A. Theoretical Framework. The authors of this article are not using too many theories, but the selected theories are not so related and most of them quite ancient. B. Research Methodology. The authors have done three experiments in this article. Each experiment has its own research methodology. But the explanation of the method is too long. Even they had used several software such as Corel Draw, but it was not suitable for ordinary readers like me. The authors also include some pictures which is good. Meanwhile in the result section, they provide result in percentage with attached graph bar. C. Discussion. The general discussion were briefly explain with metric system and other related parameters. 7. REVIEW – 3RD ARTICLES. This article is not a research report or experiment report, it was an article report regarding the relation between cognitive load theory with human motor system in order to support the learning of complex cognitive tasks. The authors had divided the article in few sections which is abstract, introduction, the collective working memory effect, human memory effect, embodied cognition, discussion and conclusions. The authors are combining the newest theory with the ancient theory. It was a quite good article even though it was quite long and no attractive figure such as picture, graph bar or else. 8. REVIEW – 4TH ARTICLES. This article also was a report of combining a theory, hypothesis and thesis in order to explain the revolution in the cognitive psychology of development. It’s also combining between domestic researches (Russia) with international research (World). There is also no differentiate section, only the abstract, full report and then the references. Even though the author has divided by paragraph, but it still confusing and not tidy. 9. SUMMARY. After going thru the entire article, I found out that the best article is the research article with including experiment or questionnaire. So it will be the 1st and the 2nd article was very good to me. But if the report article is presented with some attractive added such as pictures, graph, map, bar or etc, it will also be interesting too. In the matters of abstract, all four articles had provided it. Abstract is important as the readers may need a little summary of that article before decided to read it. Next section is introduction; the 1st, 2nd and 3rd article had its introduction section, while the 4th article had not. Introduction is important as an “ice-breaking” for readers. If there is no introduction or the introduction was not separated, it will give nothing more than a confusing to the readers. Then we go to the content area. For me, all the article had provide a very good content, with combining the newest theory with the ancient theory or even using the still most relevant ancient theory. A lot of theories is good for readers to really understand the authors perspective. The 1st and 2nd article had shown to us how current technology can help the researchers, not only in science stream, but also can be used in human science. They had used several software to assist their research such as; CorelDraw and LimeSurvey, which I think is impressive for the new era of psychological research. The selection of the research methodology concept also was very good. In 3rd and 4th article which is not in research method, their authors also briefly explain in details about their subject. And now we are into the discussion, summary or conclusion part. In my opinion, all of first three article has provide the good summary except for the 4th article when the author doesn’t separated the conclusion with content, only separated with paragraph. Even though the summary for the 3rd article is too long, but it is still acceptable for me. And lastly we go for the references section. What I found was the entire article chosen has provided a very good reference. References are important as we are to avoid plagiarism and to honored previous researchers. No matter how good or bad, our report must came from ourselves, not by plagiarism, agree? 10. REFERENCES. 1. Lim Thong, Dr Rozainee, 2012. Cognitive Psychology. Meteor Doc. Sdn. Bhd.
