Working memory capacity and self-regulatory behavior: toward an individual differences perspective on behavior determination by automatic versus controlled processes.

29 Sep 2008 In the present research, the authors investigated how individual differences in working memory capacity moderate the relative influence of automatic versus controlled precursors on self-regulatory behavior. In 2 studies, on sexual interest behavior ... Read more...

Automatic vigilance for negative words in lexical decision and naming: comment on Larsen, Mercer, and Balota (2006).

30 Jul 2008 An automatic vigilance hypothesis states that humans preferentially attend to negative stimuli, and this attention to negative valence disrupts the processing of other stimulus properties. Thus, negative words typically elicit slower color naming, ... Read more...

Suppressing aliasing noise in the speech feature domain for automatic speech recognition.

29 Jun 2008 This letter points out that, although in the audio signal domain low-pass filtering has been used to prevent aliasing noise from entering the baseband of speech signals, an antialias process in the speech feature domain is still needed to prevent ... Read more...
