Our purpose is to reflect on the benefits and limitations of video recall compared to another self-report method, ‘thinking-aloud’. To do so, we reveal empirical results from the application of video recall in three interdisciplinary research projects that applied the method for the qualitative and quantitative assessment of cognitive and behavioral phenomena in everyday explanations. In all three projects, video recall was applied as a post-hoc procedure following the recording of dyadic face-to-face explanations of board games. The design of the video recall procedure differed between individual projects because they pursued different research objectives – that is the investigation of (1) an interlocutor's multimodal signals of understanding, (2) the change in assumptions about an interlocutor's dispositional and situational knowledge, and (3) the differentiated assessment of an interlocutor's developing understanding of domain knowledge aspects by distinguishing between mechanistic and functional explanatory stances. By discussing the benefits and the limitations of each procedure, this article provides critical reflections on video recall as a versatile research method applied for the analysis of human multimodal behavior in interaction and cognitive processing.}}, author = {{Lazarov, Stefan Teodorov and Schaffer, Michael and Gladow, Viviane and Buschmeier, Hendrik and Buhl, Heike M. and Grimminger, Angela}}, pages = {{29}}, title = {{{Retrospective video recall for analyzing cognitive processes in naturalistic explanations}}}, year = {{2026}}, } @article{60306, author = {{Schoenert, Kathrin and Sommer, Sabrina and Buhl, Heike M.}}, journal = {{Frontiers in Developmental Psychology}}, title = {{{Impact of felt obligation and perceived mutual reciprocity on support between mothers and their adult children}}}, doi = {{10.3389/fdpys.2025.1508469}}, volume = {{3}}, year = {{2025}}, } @article{59636, author = {{Bohndick, Carla and Breetzke, Jonas and Klingsieck, Katrin B. and Buhl, Heike M.}}, journal = {{Social Psychology of Education}}, title = {{{Students’ personality impacts sense of belonging of students in different ways}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s11218-025-10058-0}}, volume = {{28}}, year = {{2025}}, } @techreport{61332, author = {{Buhl, Heike M. and Fisher, Josephine Beryl and Rohlfing, Katharina J.}}, publisher = {{OSF}}, title = {{{Role Perception Questionnaire: Co-construction.

The goal of providing or seeking explanations is to achieve (better) ‘understanding’ on the part of the explainee. However, what it means to ‘understand’ is still not clearly defined, and the concept itself is rarely the subject of scientific investigation. This conceptual article aims to present a model of forms of understanding for XAI-explanations and beyond. From an interdisciplinary perspective bringing together computer science, linguistics, sociology, philosophy and psychology, a definition of understanding and its forms, assessment, and dynamics during the process of giving everyday explanations are explored. Two types of understanding are considered as possible outcomes of explanations, namely enabledness, ‘knowing how’ to do or decide something, and comprehension, ‘knowing that’ – both in different degrees (from shallow to deep). Explanations regularly start with shallow understanding in a specific domain and can lead to deep comprehension and enabledness of the explanandum, which we see as a prerequisite for human users to gain agency. In this process, the increase of comprehension and enabledness are highly interdependent. Against the background of this systematization, special challenges of understanding in XAI are discussed.}}, author = {{Buschmeier, Hendrik and Buhl, Heike M. and Kern, Friederike and Grimminger, Angela and Beierling, Helen and Fisher, Josephine Beryl and Groß, André and Horwath, Ilona and Klowait, Nils and Lazarov, Stefan Teodorov and Lenke, Michael and Lohmer, Vivien and Rohlfing, Katharina and Scharlau, Ingrid and Singh, Amit and Terfloth, Lutz and Vollmer, Anna-Lisa and Wang, Yu and Wilmes, Annedore and Wrede, Britta}}, journal = {{Cognitive Systems Research}}, keywords = {{understanding, explaining, explanations, explainable, AI, interdisciplinarity, comprehension, enabledness, agency}}, title = {{{Forms of Understanding for XAI-Explanations}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.cogsys.2025.101419}}, volume = {{94}}, year = {{2025}}, } @inbook{63390, author = {{Buhl, Heike M. and Hilkenmeier, Johanna}}, booktitle = {{Handbuch Entwicklungs- und Erziehungspsychologie}}, editor = {{Kracke, Bärbel and Noack, Peter}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{Bildung und Lesesozialisation im Elternhaus}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-642-54061-5_10-2}}, year = {{2025}}, } @inbook{65262, author = {{Brucks , Tabea and Buhl, Heike M.}}, booktitle = {{Psychologiedidaktik an allgemeinbildenden und beruflichen Schulen.

However, while parents’ support seems to be important, the quantity and quality of parental support have been shown to have different associations with children’s motivation. Thus, the goal of the current study was to examine the relationship between parents’ support (quantity and quality), children’s motivation to engage in information-related internet use, and children’s actual information-related internet use (practical and school- or learning-related use) using structural equation modeling. In addition, we examined the mediating effects of children’s motivation. Specifically, 492 12-year-old German children answered a paper-and-pencil questionnaire. We found positive associations between the quantity and quality of parents’ support and children’s intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, while only structure-giving support was found to be related to children’s intrinsic motivation. The quantity of support was directly related to children’s school- or learning-related use, while intrinsic motivation was associated with both forms of information-related internet use. Furthermore, we confirmed that children’s motivation is an important mediator in this context. The implications of these findings for parents and children are considered.}}, author = {{Gruchel, Nicole and Kurock, Ricarda and Bonanati, Sabrina and Buhl, Heike M.}}, journal = {{Journal of Research in Childhood Education}}, keywords = {{children's motivation, information-related internet use, quality of parental support, quantity of parental support}}, title = {{{Children’s Information-Related Internet Use at Home: The Role of the Quantity and Quality of Parental Support and Children’s Motivation}}}, year = {{2024}}, } @inproceedings{57356, author = {{Schaffer, Michael Erol and Terfloth, Lutz and Schulte, Carsten and Buhl, Heike M.}}, location = {{Valletta, Malta}}, title = {{{Perception and Consideration of the Explainees’ Needs for Satisfying Explanations}}}, year = {{2024}}, } @inproceedings{57357, author = {{Schaffer, Michael Erol and Terfloth, Lutz and Schulte, Carsten and Buhl, Heike M.}}, booktitle = {{Joint Proceedings of the xAI-2024 Late-breaking Work, Demos and Doctoral Consortium. 3793}}, title = {{{Explainers’ Mental Representations of Explainees’ Needs in Everyday Explanations}}}, year = {{2024}}, } @article{57846, abstract = {{ Abstract: Teachers require various generic competencies that are not addressed explicitly in the teacher education program, such as learning strategies. Although universities offer student teachers extracurricular opportunities to develop these competencies, few students seize them. Our training program fosters students’ self-regulated competency development: Self-reflection as an important first step to self-regulated competency development is addressed through an online self-assessment tool providing individual feedback and suggestions for further development. Forming and implementing intentions to develop competencies is addressed by a workshop based on an evidence-based self-management training program and group coaching sessions to bridge potential intention–behavior gaps. After the training program, the experimental group ( n = 32) showed a more favorable development in self-reflection, procrastination, and participation in competency-enhancing offers than the control group ( n = 34). The results show that supporting students in their self-regulated competency development can be an important key in their professional development. }}, author = {{Kaemper, Mara and Buhl, Heike M. and Klingsieck, Katrin B.}}, issn = {{0049-8637}}, journal = {{Zeitschrift für Entwicklungspsychologie und Pädagogische Psychologie}}, number = {{4}}, pages = {{197--208}}, publisher = {{Hogrefe Publishing Group}}, title = {{{How to Improve Student Teachers’ Self-Regulated Competency Development}}}, doi = {{10.1026/0049-8637/a000301}}, volume = {{56}}, year = {{2024}}, }
