False memory in aging: effects of emotional valence on word recognition accuracy.

30 May 2008 Memory is susceptible to distortions. Valence and increasing age are variables known to affect memory accuracy and may increase false alarm production. Interaction between these variables and their impact on false memory was investigated in 36 young ...

Word-learning performance in beginning readers.

30 May 2008 This investigation examined word-learning performance in beginning readers. The children learned to read words with regular spelling-sound mappings (e.g., snake) more easily than words with irregular spelling-sound mappings (e.g., sword). In ...

Response priming patterns differ with interstimulus interval duration.

30 May 2008 Priming paradigms make it possible to study the nature of response preparation before the onset of movement. One way to examine this process is through manipulation of the interstimulus interval (ISI). The timing of the prime and target presentation ...

The roles of the medial prefrontal cortex and hippocampus in a spatial paired-association task.

3 May 2008 Although the roles of both the hippocampus and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) have been suggested in a spatial paired-associate memory task, both areas were investigated separately in prior studies. The current study investigated the relative ...

Adult age differences in the access and deletion functions of inhibition.

29 Apr 2008 This study examined age differences in working memory using a delayed-matching-to-sample (DMTS) task. Based on the inhibitory decline hypothesis, which posits that older adults are more susceptible to interference, age differences were expected to ...

Identity and location priming effects and their temporal stability in young and older adults.

29 Apr 2008 Unlike previous studies, the present experiment was designed to directly compare negative (NP) and positive priming (PP) in 37 young (mean age: 21.5 years) and 37 older adults (mean age: 69.4 years) by means of two independent identity- and ...

Evidence for linguistic deficit in nonlexical processing in reading. A study of a Spanish-speaking patient.

29 Apr 2008 Previous studies have shown that in the so-called opaque languages (those in which spelling does not correspond to pronunciation), there are relatively independent routes for lexical and nonlexical processing, that is, for words and nonwords, both ...

Immediate priming and cognitive aftereffects.

29 Apr 2008 Three forced-choice perceptual word identification experiments tested the claim that transitions from positive to negative priming as a function of increasing prime duration are due to cognitive aftereffects. These aftereffects are similar in nature ...

Examining differences in the levels of false memories in children and adults using child-normed lists.

29 Apr 2008 Several previous studies have demonstrated that children, when compared with adults, exhibit both lower levels of veridical memory and fewer intrusions when given semantically associated lists. However, researchers have drawn these conclusions using ...

Implicit proactive interference, age, and automatic versus controlled retrieval strategies.

29 Apr 2008 We assessed the extent to which implicit proactive interference results from automatic versus controlled retrieval among younger and older adults. During a study phase, targets (e.g., "ALLERGY") either were or were not preceded by nontarget ...
