Visual and spatial working memory are not that dissociated after all: a time-based resource-sharing account.

29 Jun 2009 Examinations of interference between visual and spatial materials in working memory have suggested domain- and process-based fractionations of visuo-spatial working memory. The present study examined the role of central time-based resource sharing ...

Estimating distance in real and virtual environments: Does order make a difference?

29 Jun 2009 In this investigation, we examined how the order in which people experience real and virtual environments influences their distance estimates. Participants made two sets of distance estimates in one of the following conditions: (1) real environment ...

Revisiting the role of probe distractors in negative priming: location negative priming is observed when probe distractors are consistently absent.

29 Jun 2009 Negative priming (NP) refers to the delayed response to a probe target that was previously a prime distractor. One peculiar problem in NP literature is the observation that the manifestation of identity NP is contingent on the presence and type of ...

Mechanisms of priming of pop-out: Stored representations or feature-gain modulations?

29 Jun 2009 Previous research has shown that repetition of a task-relevant attention-capturing feature facilitates pop-out search. This priming of pop-out effect is due to some residual memory from recent trials. We explore two possible mechanisms of priming of ...

Examining the relationship between free recall and immediate serial recall: Similar patterns of rehearsal and similar effects of word length, presentation rate, and articulatory suppression.

29 Jun 2009 In five experiments, rehearsal and recall phenomena were examined using the free recall and immediate serial recall (ISR) tasks. In Experiment 1, participants were presented with lists of eight words, were precued or postcued to respond using free ...

Performance benefits and costs in forced choice perceptual identification in amnesia: Effects of prior exposure and word frequency.

29 Jun 2009 Accuracy in identifying a perceptually degraded word (e.g., stake) can be either enhanced by recent exposure to the same stimulus or reduced by recent exposure to a similar stimulus (e.g., stare). In the present study, we explored the mechanisms ...

Repeated text in unrelated passages: Repetition versus meaning selection effects.

29 Jun 2009 Despite previous findings, Klin, Ralano, and Weingartner (2007) found transfer benefits across unrelated passages. After processing an ambiguous phrase in Story A that was biased toward its sarcastic meaning, readers were more likely to interpret ...

Sequence learning is preserved in individuals with cerebellar degeneration when the movements are directly cued.

29 Jun 2009 Cerebellar pathology is associated with impairments on a range of motor learning tasks including sequence learning. However, various lines of evidence are at odds with the idea that the cerebellum plays a central role in the associative processes ...

Location representation in enclosed spaces: what types of information afford young children an advantage?

25 Jun 2009 It has been suggested that young children can only reorient, locating a target object, when the geometry of an enclosed space provides distinctive shape information [e.g., Hermer, L., & Spelke, E. (1994). A geometric process for spatial ...
