Are spatial and dimensional attention separate? evidence from Posner, Stroop, and Eriksen tasks.

30 Aug 2009 Do various operational definitions of visual attention tap the same underlying process? To address this question, we probed visual selective attention using orientation of attention, flanker, and Stroop tasks. These were embedded in combined designs ...

Enhancement and suppression effects resulting from information structuring in sentences.

30 Aug 2009 Information structuring through the use of cleft sentences increases the processing efficiency of references to elements within the scope of focus. Furthermore, there is evidence that putting certain types of emphasis on individual words not only ...

Taboo words: the effect of emotion on memory for peripheral information.

30 Aug 2009 In three experiments, we examined memory for peripheral information that occurred in the same context as emotion-inducing information. In the first two experiments, participants studied either a sentence (Experiment 1) or a pair of words ...

Variation in working memory capacity, fluid intelligence, and episodic recall: a latent variable examination of differences in the dynamics of free recall.

30 Aug 2009 A latent variable analysis was conducted to examine the nature of individual differences in the dynamics of free recall and cognitive abilities. Participants performed multiple measures of free recall, working memory capacity (WMC), and fluid ...

How verbal memory loads consume attention.

30 Aug 2009 According to a traditional assumption about working memory, participants retain a series of verbal items for immediate recall using covert verbal rehearsal, without much need for attention. We reassessed this assumption by imposing a speeded, ...

Spatial directions and situation model organization.

30 Aug 2009 Do spatial directions, such as "to the right," influence the integration and segregation of information into situation models? According to a single-framework hypothesis, spatial location serves as an event framework, and spatial directions serve as ...

Age differences in tracking characters during narrative comprehension.

30 Aug 2009 Understanding a narrative situation depends on keeping track of multiple characters that enter and exit dynamically as the plot unfolds. We investigated age differences in this process during narrative comprehension. In Experiment 1, we used a probe ...

Modality-specific, multitask locomotor deficits persist despite good recovery after a traumatic brain injury.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of sensory modality of simultaneous tasks during walking with and without obstacles after moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). DESIGN: Group comparison study. SETTING: Gait analysis laboratory within a ...

Angry faces are special too: evidence from the visual scanpath.

30 Aug 2009 Traditional models of face processing posit independent pathways for the processing of facial identity and facial expression (e.g., Bruce & Young, 1986). However, such models have been questioned by recent reports that suggest positive expressions ...

Semantic inhibition impairment in mild cognitive impairment: a distinctive feature of upcoming cognitive decline?

30 Aug 2009 This study aimed to measure semantic inhibitory capacities in persons with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI), in healthy older and younger adults. This was done by relying on a computerized adaptation of the ...
