The TAR effect: when the ones who dislike become the ones who are disliked.

29 Jun 2008 Four studies tested whether a source's evaluations of other individuals can recursively transfer to the source, such that people who like others acquire a positive valence, whereas people who dislike others acquire a negative valence (Transfer of ...

Visual recognition memory in Alzheimer's disease: repetition-lag effects.

29 Jun 2008 There is considerable evidence that visual recognition memory is largely affected by Alzheimer's disease (AD). Deficits might concern the forming, maintaining, and matching of the memory representation of the visual stimulus, especially when long ...

Transfer effects in task-set cost and dual-task cost after dual-task training in older and younger adults: further evidence for cognitive plasticity in attentional control in late adulthood.

29 Jun 2008 Older adults' difficulties in performing two tasks concurrently have been well documented (Kramer & Madden, 2008). It has been observed that the age-related differences in dual-task performance are larger when the two tasks require similar motor ...

A mouse model of fragile X syndrome exhibits heightened arousal and/or emotion following errors or reversal of contingencies.

29 Jun 2008 This study was designed to further assess cognitive and affective functioning in a mouse model of Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the Fmr1(tm1Cgr) or Fmr1 "knockout" (KO) mouse. Male KO mice and wild-type littermate controls were tested on learning set ...

Learning generalization in problem solving by a blue-fronted parrot (Amazona aestiva).

23 Jun 2008 Pepperberg (The Alex studies: cognitive and communicative abilities of gray parrots. Harvard University Press, Cambridge;1999) showed that some of the complex cognitive capabilities found in primates are also present in psittacine birds. Through the ...

Generalized learning of visual-to-auditory substitution in sighted individuals.

18 Jun 2008 Visual-to-auditory substitution involves delivering information about the visual world using auditory input. Although the potential suitability of sound as visual substitution has previously been demonstrated, the basic mechanism behind crossmodal ...

Carrying the height of the world on your ankles: encumbering observers reduces estimates of how high an actor can jump.

17 Jun 2008 The authors investigated how changes in action capabilities affect estimation of affordances for another actor. Observers estimated maximum jumping-reach height for themselves and another actor. Half of the observers wore ankle weights that reduced ...

Transfer of the curvature aftereffect in dynamic touch.

12 Jun 2008 A haptic curvature aftereffect is a phenomenon in which the perception of a curved shape is systematically altered by previous contact to curvature. In the present study, the existence and intermanual transfer of curvature aftereffects for dynamic ...

Auditory warnings, signal-referent relations, and natural indicators: re-thinking theory and application.

30 May 2008 In auditory warning design the idea of the strength of the association between sound and referent has been pivotal. Research has proceeded via constructing classification systems of signal-referent associations and then testing predictions about ...

Superiority of variable to repeated practice in transfer on anagram solution.

30 May 2008 Previous research in motor learning shows that practicing variations of a task (variable practice) leads to better transfer than does repeatedly practicing the exact same task (repeated practice). In contrast, research on priming using verbal ...
