- This $134,432 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports collaborative research to build empirically informed models of scientific search and progress. The research aims to understand the factors that drive or hinder innovation, including the proliferation of scientific knowledge, funding incentives, pressure to publish, and challenges of remote collaboration. The project uses a mixed-method approach,...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) awarded Northeastern University $532,152 on May 1, 2025 to conduct research on the neurocognitive development of learning in adolescents. The project aims to investigate the cognitive and brain mechanisms related to learning from experience, and how these change from childhood to adolescence and young adulthood. Using behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging...
- This Project Grant award of $624,041 from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports research by the University of California, Davis to investigate the efficiency of visual search tasks. The project aims to understand the organizing principles that enable efficient visual search, which is critical for many everyday activities. The research uses behavior, eye-tracking, virtual reality, brain activity, and computational modeling to...
- This $323,388 award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a collaborative research project to examine how smart technological environments can be optimized to augment collective learning and creativity. The research aims to investigate the parameters that drive group-directed learning in three key areas: cooperative behavior, collective intelligence, and collective creativity. The project involves large-scale...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $225,974 to Cornell University to investigate how technological augmentations can enhance the learning and effectiveness of work teams, community groups, classrooms, and other collectives. The research examines the parameters that drive group-directed learning in areas such as cooperative behavior, collective intelligence, and collective creativity. The...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to transform introductory social sciences education by integrating modern digital skills into the Introduction to Psychology course. The $399,747 project, running from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, will redesign the course to teach essential digital workforce skills like data analytics, programming, and web development alongside core psychology concepts. By emphasizing...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) awarded a $529,508 Project Grant to the University of California, Berkeley to investigate the cognitive mechanisms that enable individuals to leverage the brain's motivation system for arbitrary goals. The 3-year research project, starting on June 1, 2024, aims to uncover how learning and decision-making differ when people pursue familiar, objective rewards versus novel, self-imposed...
- This $120,276 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a collaborative research project to enhance episodic memory through the integration of real-world brain recording, stimulation, and perception data. The key objectives are to: Synchronize human experience data from various IoT sensors with neuronal activity recordings to understand how brain patterns relate to real-world experiences. Leverage...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $106,000 to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) to conduct research on designing smart environments to enhance collective learning and creativity. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award include: Developing large-scale online experiments and computational models to investigate how technological...
This $260,390 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The project aims to examine how internet search affects cognitive style and self-directed learning, and to investigate interventions that encourage users to leverage their memory alongside digital tools. Key objectives include: 1) Assessing if internet search use alters cognitive style and influences learning on unrelated tasks, and 2) Developing short-term and longer-term interventions to counteract potential negative effects of internet use on learning and cognitive style. The project will also provide STEM research opportunities for trainees and broadly disseminate outcomes through online forums. This single-institution award to New Mexico State University is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2028.
