Bindings between stimuli and multiple response codes dominate long-lag repetition priming in speeded classification tasks.

29 Apr 2009 Repetition priming is often thought to reflect the facilitation of 1 or more processes engaged during initial and subsequent presentations of a stimulus. Priming can also reflect the formation of direct, stimulus-response (S-R) bindings, retrieval ... Read more...

Integers do not automatically activate their quantity representation.

30 Mar 2009 Researchers have generally come to the conclusion that integers automatically activate the quantity they symbolize and that this quantity dominates responding. I conducted a strong test of this hypothesis with two numerical same/different ... Read more...

Nonautomatic emotion perception in a dual-task situation.

30 Mar 2009 Are emotions perceived automatically? Two psychological refractory period experiments were conducted to ascertain whether emotion perception requires central attentional resources. Task 1 required an auditory discrimination (tone vs. noise), whereas ... Read more...
