This project will illuminate neurophysiological processes responsible for children's efficient use of feedback. Children regularly encounter feedback at school and home as they learn new information or acquire new skills. Young learners must extract information from feedback, ignoring irrelevant, false, or misleading feedback, and using helpful feedback to adjust behavior and modify learning strategies. The ability to use feedback efficiently is an element of active, self-regulated learning that is critical to academic success. Understanding such learning in children requires studying how the quality of feedback processing in the brain changes with age through the early school years. By examining how individual cognitive differences affect the development of feedback processing, this project will enable development of effective evidence-based teaching approaches and computer-based learning programs that are tailored for children of different ages and with diverse cognitive profiles. The project will also lead to advances in treatments for children with developmental language disorders whose therapy relies on feedback provision. A broadly representative sample of children will participate in this research, and the study results will be shared with educators via education events held at schools serving low income and underrepresented students.Feedback processing will be examined in eight- and ten-year-old children who will be followed over three years. In each yearly visit, children will learn new information using corrective feedback while their EEG is recorded. EEG activity will be analyzed to longitudinally investigate changes in children's ability to learn from feedback. The results will improve understanding of how feedback impacts learning, and how this impact changes with age. Working memory measures will also be collected each year and examined in relation to changes in feedback-based learning. The project involves a detailed evaluation of the maturation of feedback processing between 8 and 13 years of age, a period that marks significant developmental changes in self-regulated learning. To increase the representativeness of the participants in the project, transportation will be arranged for interested families with limited mobility.

这个项目将阐明负责儿童有效利用反馈的神经生理过程。孩子们在学校和家里学习新知识或掌握新技能时，经常会得到反馈。幼儿学习者必须从反馈中提取信息，忽略不相关的、错误的或误导性的反馈，并使用有用的反馈来调整行为和修改学习策略。有效使用反馈的能力是积极的、自我调节的学习的一个要素，对学术成功至关重要。要理解儿童的这种学习，就需要研究大脑中反馈处理的质量是如何在早期上学期间随着年龄的变化而变化的。通过研究个体认知差异如何影响反馈处理的发展，该项目将能够开发有效的循证教学方法和基于计算机的学习计划，为不同年龄和不同认知特征的儿童量身定制。该项目还将促进对发育性语言障碍儿童的治疗，这些儿童的治疗依赖于提供反馈。本研究将选取具有广泛代表性的儿童样本，通过在低收入和低代表性学生学校举办的教育活动，与教育工作者分享研究结果。将对8岁和10岁儿童的反馈处理进行为期三年的跟踪调查。在每年的访问中，孩子们将使用纠正反馈学习新信息，同时记录他们的EEG。将分析EEG活动，以纵向调查儿童从反馈中学习能力的变化。研究结果将提高对反馈如何影响学习的理解，以及这种影响如何随年龄变化。工作记忆的措施也将每年收集和审查有关的变化，以反馈为基础的学习。该项目涉及8至13岁之间的反馈处理成熟度的详细评估，这一时期标志着自我调节学习的重大发展变化。为增加参与者的代表性，将为行动不便的家庭安排交通工具。
