“…Several authors have recently expressed a need for “A parsimonious theory [that] would posit a unitary mechanism for maintaining control over the task at hand, whether this entails overcoming neural fatigue in a chess marathon or muscle fatigue in a long distance marathon” (Holroyd, 2013, pg. 694; for similar arguments for a unified system of mental and physical fatigue, see Boksem & Tops, 2008; Iran-Nejada & Zengaro, 2013). Findings in the domain of physical fatigue suggest that self-regulatory fatigue can be understood only by considering both physiological and psychological factors, not just one or the other.…”

Self-regulation requires overriding a dominant response, and leads to temporary self-regulatory fatigue. Existing theories of the nature and causes of self-regulatory fatigue highlight physiological substrates such as glucose or psychological processes such as motivation, but these explanations are incomplete on their own. Historically, theories of physical fatigue demonstrate a similar pattern of useful but incomplete explanations, as recent views of physical fatigue emphasize the roles of both physiological and psychological factors. In addition to accounting for multiple inputs, these newer views also explain how fatigue can occur even in the presence of sufficient resources. Examining these newer theories of physical fatigue can serve as a foundation on which to build a more comprehensive understanding of self-regulatory fatigue that integrates possible neurobiological underpinnings of physical and self-regulatory fatigue, and suggests the possible function of self-regulatory fatigue.

“…The mutual inclusion/exclusion theory also benefits to understand these results. This theory assumes that if two types of processes need common elements, they may be not co-occur ( Diener and Iran-Nejad, 1986 ; Iran-Nejad and Zengaro, 2013 ). For example, if one type of affect is at low levels, the other type of affect can be at any level of intensity from low to high (i.e.…”

Studies investigating the relationship between working memory (WM) and approximate number system (ANS) acuity in the area of arithmetic strategy utilization are scarce. The choice/no choice method paradigm was used in the present study to determine whether and how ANS acuity and WM components affected strategy utilization. The results showed that the central executive (CE) mediated the relationship between ANS acuity and strategy utilization. Furthermore, quantile regression analyses revealed that the association between CE and strategy choice was robust from the first to highest quantile. Notably, the relationship between ANS acuity and strategy choice was significant at the median and higher quantiles (i.e., 0.5, 0.75, and 0.85 quantiles), but not significant at lower quantiles (i.e., 0.15 and 0.25 quantiles). These results suggest that domain-general skills play a crucial role in the relationship between children’s ANS acuity and mathematical ability. The impact of ANS acuity and CE on strategy choice was dependent on the distribution of the strategy utilization level. These results provide a further understanding of the utilization of cognitive strategies.

“…Il conviendrait donc d'intégrer des éléments pédagogiques provenant de l'approche biofonctionnelle (Gregg & Carver Sekeres, 2008;Iran-Nejad & Zengaro, 2013) aux différentes méthodes existantes, afin de favoriser le développement de l'élève et la préservation de sa capacité créatrice. Notre conceptualisation des régulations tenant compte des sources de contrôle peut être utile dans la gestion de l'interaction, dans le coaching dans la formation professionnelle et dans une prise de conscience des effets de l'intervention de l'enseignant.…”

“…Ceci s'explique par le fait que notre capacité attentionnelle est séquentielle et réduite. En effet, notre système attentionnel central 8 nous permet de traiter un seul élément d'information à la fois et est notamment sensible au coût de l'effort de concentration (Iran-Nejad & Zengaro, 2013;Kurzban, Duckworth, Kable, & Myers, 2013). Il est toutefois capable d'alterner rapidement, ce qui nous donne l'illusion d'un traitement simultané.…”

Contrôle attentionnel lors des régulations. Une autre manière de concevoir l’attention exigée durant les apprentissages

De nombreux travaux explorent le travail cognitif qui se déroule hors contrôle attentionnel de l’apprenant, notamment d’un point de vue développemental. Les régulations dont l’apprenant n’a pas conscience semblent jouer un rôle important dans la compréhension et les mises en liens avec la matière précédemment appropriée. Elles ont aussi un rôle fondamental dans la résolution de problèmes. Toutefois, la plupart des démarches didactiques exigent de la part des élèves une concentration lors de la pratique en classe et une explicitation de leurs démarches, ainsi qu’une pratique immédiatement après la transmission du savoir. Sur la base de nos recherches, nous proposons une conceptualisation des liens entre régulation et sources de contrôle des régulations tenant compte de certains éléments connus du fonctionnement du cerveau. Nous abordons aussi la complexité des interactions entre les différentes sources de contrôle dans le cadre du travail en classe.
