Modeling Epistemic and Ontological Cognition: Philosophical Perspectives and Methodological Directions (2008, background): “Indeed, Phillips (2000) would classify those who would position knowledge as originating outside of the human mind as antiepistemological, that is, rejecting the very idea that individual humans could have “knowledge,” as it is defined in philosophy.”
Bridging Reading Comprehension and Conceptual Change in Science Education: The Promise of Refutation Text (2011, background): “Conceptual change is the process of restructuring knowledge (e.g., see Dole & Sinatra, 1998; Murphy & Mason, 2006).”
“Pluto Has Been a Planet My Whole Life!” Emotions, Attitudes, and Conceptual Change in Elementary Students’ Learning about Pluto’s Reclassification (2013, background): “extended period of time, through which an individual revises his/her mental representations to align with the accepted scientific perspective (Hatano and Inagaki 2003; Murphy and Mason 2006).”
Changing Minds? Implications of Conceptual Change for Teaching and Learning about Biological Evolution (2008, background): “(1993) called for an inclusion of motivational constructs into models of conceptual change, there have been an increasing number of researchers characterizing conceptual change as social, contextual, motivational, and affective in nature (see, for example, Dole and Sinatra 1998; Gregoire 2003; Murph”
The Multidimensional Knowledge in Text Comprehension framework (2021, background): “Some argue that beliefs reflect a subset of knowledge, whereas others suggest that beliefs and knowledge reflect separate but overlapping constructs (Alexander & Dochy, 1995; Murphy et al., 2012; Murphy & Mason, 2006; Southerland et al., 2001).”
Beliefs and Attitudes in Mathematics Education: New Research Results (2009, background): “Changes in beliefs have been discussed in terms of conceptual change by a number of authors (Murphy & Mason, 2006; Pehkonen, 2006; Liljedahl, Rolka & Rösken, 2007b), extending a mostly cognitively-grounded theory to the concept of beliefs.”
Knowledge Revision Processes in Refutation Texts (2014, result): “Although most previous research on refutation texts focused predominantly on examining learning outcomes (Braasch, Goldman, & Wiley, 2013; Chi, 2005; Murphy & Mason, 2006; Mason, Gava, & Boldrin, 2008; Sinatra, Southerland, McConaughy, & Demastes, 2003), we focus predominantly on the actual…”
Introduction: Bridging the Cognitive and Sociocultural Approaches in Research on Conceptual Change: Is it Feasible? (2007, methodology): “This research has been characterized mainly by a cognitive approach that focuses on analyzing personal mental representations (Murphy & Mason, 2006; Sinatra & Pintrich, 2003; Vosniadou, 1999).”
Achievement goals, emotions, learning, and performance : A process model (2015, result): “This explanation is consistent with research on epistemological beliefs suggesting that relativism (i.e., critical thinking) should ideally lead to evaluatism (i.e., an integrated, holistic understanding ) in order for meaningful knowledge gains to occur (e.g., Hofer, 2001; Murphy & Mason, 2006).”
