• PERSISTENCE OF THE INTUITIVE CONCEPTION THAT HEAVIER OBJECTS SINK MORE: A REACTION TIME STUDY WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF INTERFERENCE (2015, background): “Our findings suggest that conceptions or intuitions continue to exist in the decision-making process (Masson et al., 2014) that leads to correct answers, not only because of the latencies in responses where these conceptions/intuitions interfere negatively (they “spoil” reaction times, compared to…”
• The neuroscience of conceptual learning in science and mathematics (2016, background): “During interference control, children show more diffuse frontal cortex activations and a greater recruitment of posterior brain regions; adults by contrast show more focal activation in the DLPFC, ACC and inferior frontal gyrus [42,43].”
