The advantage of positive text-background polarity is due to high display luminance.
29 Jun 2009 
Reading text from computer screens is better when text is printed in dark letters on light background (positive polarity) than when it is printed in light letters on dark background (negative polarity). An experiment is presented that tests whether ...

29 Jun 2009 In responses time tasks, inhibitory neighborhood effects have been found for word pairs that differ in a transposition of two adjacent letters (e.g., clam/calm). Here, the author describes two eye-tracking experiments conducted to explore ...

A preliminary study of lateralized processing in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
29 Jun 2009 Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with deficits in spatial and sustained attention processes normally linked to the right parietal and frontal lobes. However, data on lateralization changes in attention processes are ...

An encounter frequency account of how experience affects likelihood estimation.
29 Jun 2009 When making judgments, people often favor information received from a few individual sources over large-sample statistical data. Individual information is usually acquired piece by piece, whereas statistical information combines many observations ...

Disjunctive illusory inferences and how to eliminate them.
29 Jun 2009 The mental model theory of reasoning postulates that individuals construct mental models of the possibilities in which the premises of an inference hold and that these models represent what is true but not what is false. An unexpected consequence of ...

Sample selection and inductive generalization.
29 Jun 2009 In two experiments with adults (N = 126), we examined the influence of sampling procedure on inductive generalization. In predicate sampling, participants learned the category identity of individuals known to possess some property. In subject ...

29 Jun 2009 The present study investigated cross-language priming effects with unique noncognate translation pairs. Unbalanced Dutch (first language [L1])-English (second language [L2]) bilinguals performed a lexical decision task in a masked priming paradigm. ...
