Testing signal-detection models of yes/no and two-alternative forced-choice recognition memory.
29 Apr 2009
The current study compared 3 models of recognition memory in their ability to generalize across yes/no and 2-alternative forced-choice (2AFC) testing. The unequal-variance signal-detection model assumes a continuous memory strength process. The ... Read more...
Automatic optimism: the affective basis of judgments about the likelihood of future events.
29 Apr 2009
People generally judge that the future will be consistent with their desires, but the reason for this desirability bias is unclear. This investigation examined whether affective reactions associated with future events are the mechanism through ... Read more...
Bilingualism reduces native-language interference during novel-word learning.
29 Apr 2009
The goal of the present work was to examine the effects of bilingualism on adults' ability to resolve cross-linguistic inconsistencies in orthography-to-phonology mappings during novel-word learning. English monolinguals and English-Spanish ... Read more...
