1.
Gao M, Sloutsky V
Dev Sci . 2025 Mar; 28(3):e70002. PMID: 40033792
Children are more likely than adults to explore new options, but is this due to a top-down epistemic-uncertainty-driven process or a bottom-up novelty-driven process? Given immature cognitive control, children may...

Wan Q, Sloutsky V
Psychol Sci . 2024 Aug; 35(10):1164-1177. PMID: 39158984
Category learning is a crucial aspect of cognition that involves organizing entities into equivalence classes. Whereas adults tend to focus on category-relevant features, young children often distribute attention between relevant...

Weichart E, Unger L, King N, Sloutsky V, Turner B
Psychol Rev . 2024 May; 131(4):1045-1067. PMID: 38753387
Humans selectively attend to task-relevant information in order to make accurate decisions. However, selective attention incurs consequences if the learning environment changes unexpectedly. This trade-off has been underscored by studies...

Gao M, Turner B, Sloutsky V
Cogn Sci . 2024 Apr; 48(4):e13438. PMID: 38605457
Numerous studies have found that selective attention affects category learning. However, previous research did not distinguish between the contribution of focusing and filtering components of selective attention. This study addresses...

Unger L, Chang T, Savic O, Bergen B, Sloutsky V
Dev Sci . 2024 Apr; 27(5):e13510. PMID: 38597678
Although identifying the referents of single words is often cited as a key challenge for getting word learning off the ground, it overlooks the fact that young learners consistently encounter...

Gao M, Starks M, Golomb J, Sloutsky V
Dev Sci . 2024 Feb; 27(4):e13482. PMID: 38332650
In adults, spatial location plays a special role in visual object processing. People are more likely to judge two sequentially presented objects as being identical when they appear in the...

Blanco N, Sloutsky V
Child Dev . 2024 Feb; 95(4):1287-1298. PMID: 38314828
Decision-making requires balancing exploration with exploitation, yet children are highly exploratory, with exploration decreasing with development. Less is known about what drives these changes. We examined the development of decision-making...

Ralston R, Sloutsky V
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn . 2023 Jun; 49(10):1615-1634. PMID: 37307326
Young children can generalize from known to novel, but the underlying mechanism is still debated. Some argue that from an early age generalization is category-based and undergoes little development, while...

Sloutsky V, Turner B
Curr Biol . 2023 Mar; 33(6):R223-R225. PMID: 36977383
Associative learning is traditionally considered to be slow and inefficient compared to 'smarter' rule-based learning. New research reveals the remarkable ability of associative learning in acquiring exceedingly complex categories.

Unger L, Yim H, Savic O, Dennis S, Sloutsky V
Dev Sci . 2023 Jan; 26(4):e13373. PMID: 36680539
Recent years have seen a flourishing of Natural Language Processing models that can mimic many aspects of human language fluency. These models harness a simple, decades-old idea: It is possible...
