Proactive control and episodic binding in context processing effects.

19 Jun 2009 Decision making often involves using prior contextual information to evaluate relevant events. A laboratory equivalent of context processing situations, the AX-Continuous Performance Task (AX-CPT), yields errors when a target probe appears in a ... Read more...

Goal orientations and performance: differential relationships across levels of analysis and as a function of task demands.

29 Apr 2009 Goal orientation and self-regulation theories were integrated to develop a multilevel framework aimed at addressing controversies regarding the magnitude and direction of goal orientation effects on performance. In Study 1, goal orientations were ... Read more...

Metamemory judgments and the benefits of repeated study: improving recall predictions through the activation of appropriate knowledge.

29 Apr 2009 Correspondence between judgments of learning (JOLs) and actual recall tends to be poor when the same items are studied and recalled multiple times (e.g., A. Koriat, L. Sheffer, & H. Ma'ayan, 2002). The authors investigated whether making relevant ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Reactive Inhibition'

Definition: Tendency toward a lessened strength of response due to practice or activity. It is independent of the effect of reward and is a direct function of time interval since the last response and the number of preceding responses.
