The effects of sequence difficulty and practice on proportional and nonproportional transfer.
30 Aug 2008 
Two experiments were designed to determine participants' ability to transfer a learned movement sequence to new spatial locations. A 16-element dynamic arm movement sequence was used in both experiments. The task required participants to move a ...

Arcaine and MK-801 make recall state-dependent in rats.
28 Aug 2008 RATIONALE: The polyamines putrescine, spermidine, and spermine are a group of aliphatic amines that may act as physiological modulators of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, a glutamate receptor implicated in memory formation and ...

On finding negative priming from distractors.
30 Jul 2008 Negative priming from distractors has attracted considerable interest because it appears to reveal a fundamental mechanism of selective attention. Recently, the phenomenon has become muddled because it can be explained in far too many ways. This may ...

Training generalized spatial skills.
30 Jul 2008 Spatial transformation skills are an essential aspect of cognitive ability. These skills can be improved by practice, but such improvement has usually been specific to tasks and stimuli. The present study investigated whether intensive long-term ...

The comparative study of metacognition: sharper paradigms, safer inferences.
30 Jul 2008 Results that point to animals' metacognitive capacity bear a heavy burden, given the potential for competing behavioral descriptions. In this article, formal models are used to evaluate the force of these descriptions. One example is that many ...

Decomposition of repetition priming components in picture naming.
30 Jul 2008 Cognitive mechanisms underlying repetition priming in picture naming were decomposed in several experiments. Sets of encoding manipulations meant to selectively prime or reduce priming in object identification or word production components of ...

The acquisition of robust and flexible cognitive skills.
30 Jul 2008 The authors introduce a model of skill acquisition that incorporates elements of both traditional models and models based on embedded cognition by striking a balance between top-down and bottom-up control. A knowledge representation is used in which ...

The special status of actions in causal reasoning in rats.
30 Jul 2008 A. P. Blaisdell, K. Sawa, K. J. Leising, and M. R. Waldmann (2006) reported evidence for causal reasoning in rats. After learning through Pavlovian observation that Event A (a light) was a common cause of Events X (an auditory stimulus) and F ...

Interidentity memory transfer in dissociative identity disorder.
30 Jul 2008 Controversy surrounding dissociative identity disorder (DID) has focused on conflicting findings regarding the validity and nature of interidentity amnesia, illustrating the need for objective methods of examining amnesia that can discriminate ...

The nature of the response in Simon discriminations by pigeons.
30 Jul 2008 Spence (1952) postulated that under some conditions, responding in simple discriminations is controlled by compounds or patterns consisting of the nominal discriminative cue, plus its spatial position. Stimulus control by such compounds was said to ...
