“…To eliminate participants’ inattention due to technical novelty, the learners can be exposed to the new technology environment for a period of time, helping them adapt to the equipment and the intervention learning mode ( Gavgani et al, 2018 ). On this basis, we can eliminate some unnecessary interference factors, or we can use the Latin square design to exclude the above interference factors to reduce the influence of endogenous factors generated by the research design ( Richardson, 2018 ). Undoubtedly, the research on this issue needs to be supplemented by more empirical studies.…”

In recent years, there has been increasing use of extended reality (XR) in language learning. Many scholars have conducted empirical research on the relationship between the two, but conclusions have been inconsistent, which calls for an organization and reanalysis of relevant literature. Articles published between 2000 and 2022 on the impact of XR on language learning were retrieved from the Web of Science and Scopus databases, and 17 of them (including 21 independent samples and 993 subjects) were included in this meta-analysis. The findings indicate that XR could promote language learning (effect size = 0.825). The moderating effects of education level, target language, and technology type were also tested, and the results indicate that the target language type significantly moderated the effect of XR technology on language learning (Q = 30.563, p < 0.001). Moreover, based on the subgroup analysis, several research questions worthy of further exploration in this field are discussed. Some suggestions are provided, noting that these technologies should be personally designed for learners and learning objects when applied in order to improve the effects of language learning.

“…Therefore, the obtained graphs have similar topological characteristics, while being sufficiently different to avoid a learning effect when switching from one to another. We then built 24 configurations with the various surfaces so that each surface and graph is performed at least once as first, using something similar to the concept of the Latin square [Freeman79,Richardson18]. A Latin square is an n x n array filled with n different symbols in such a way that each symbol occurs exactly once in each row and exactly once in each column.…”

In this paper we propose improvements to the 3D radial layouts that make it possible to visualize centrality mea- sures of the nodes in a graph. Our improvements mainly relate edge drawing and the evaluation of the 3D radial layouts. First, we projected not only the nodes but also the edges onto the visualization surfaces in order to reduce the node overlap that could be observed in previous 3D radial layouts. Secondly, we proposed a human-centered evaluation in order to compare the efficiency score and the time to complete tasks of the 3D radial layouts to those of the 2D radial layouts. The evaluation tasks proposed are related to the central nodes, the peripheral nodes and the dense areas of a graph. The results showed that 3D layouts can perform significantly better than 2D layouts in terms of efficiency when tasks are related to the central and peripheral nodes, while the difference in time is not statistically significant between these various layouts. Additionally, we found that the participants preferred interacting with 3D layouts over 2D layouts.

“…As recommended by Richardson (2018), the order of conditions was included in each statistical model; however, for simplicity, is otherwise not reported. Model fits and statistical significance were evaluated by comparing Akaike's information criterion (AIC) and computing the 𝜒 2 change, respectively.…”

Background: Adults and children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) have trouble understanding speech in rooms with reverberation when using hearing aid amplification. While the use of amplitude compression signal processing in hearing aids may contribute to this difficulty, there is conflicting evidence on the effects of amplitude compression settings on speech recognition. Less clear is the effect of a fast release time for adults and children with SNHL when using compression ratios derived from a prescriptive procedure. Purpose: To determine whether release time impacts speech recognition in reverberation for children and adults with SNHL and to determine if these effects of release time and reverberation can be predicted using indices of audibility or temporal and spectral distortion. Research Design: A quasi-experimental cohort study. Participants used a hearing aid simulator set to the Desired Sensation Level algorithm m[i/o] for three different amplitude compression release times. Reverberation was simulated using three different reverberation times. Participants: Participants were 20 children and 16 adults with SNHL. Data Collection and Analyses: Participants were seated in a sound-attenuating booth and then nonsense syllable recognition was measured. Predictions of speech recognition were made using indices of audibility, temporal distortion, and spectral distortion and the effects of release time and reverberation were analyzed using linear mixed models. Results: While nonsense syllable recognition decreased in reverberation; release time did not significantly affect nonsense syllable recognition. Participants with lower audibility were more susceptible to the negative effect of reverberation on nonsense syllable recognition. Conclusions: We have extended previous work on the effects of reverberation on aided speech recognition to children with SNHL. Variations in release time did not impact the understanding of speech. An index of audibility best predicted nonsense syllable recognition in reverberation and, clinically, these results suggest that patients with less audibility are more susceptible to nonsense syllable recognition in reverberation.
