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 ...

The interaction of word frequency and concreteness in immediate serial recall.
30 Aug 2009
Word frequency and word concreteness are language attributes that have been shown to independently influence the recall of items in verbal short-term memory (STM). It has been argued that such effects are evidence for the action of long-term memory ...

Global subjective memorability and the strength-based mirror effect in recognition memory.
30 Aug 2009
Between-list manipulations of memory strength through repetition commonly generate a mirror effect, with more hits and fewer false alarms for strengthened items. However, this pattern is rarely seen with within-list manipulations of strength. In ...

Recent studies with the Deese/Roediger-McDermott (Deese 1959; Roediger & McDermott, 1995) paradigm have revealed that amnesic patients do not only show impaired veridical memory, but also diminished false memory for semantically related lure words. ...

Delaying interference enhances memory consolidation in amnesic patients.
30 Aug 2009
Some patients with amnesia are able to retain new information for much longer than expected when the time that follows new learning is devoid of further stimuli. Animal work shows that the absence or delaying of interference improves long-term ...

An Internet study of prospective memory across adulthood.
30 Aug 2009
In an Internet study, 73,018 18-79-year-olds were asked to "remember to click the smiley face when it appears." A smiley face was present/absent at encoding, and participants were told to expect it "at the end of the test"/"later in the test." In ...

Aging, hearing acuity, and the attentional costs of effortful listening.
30 Aug 2009
A dual-task interference paradigm was used to investigate the effect of perceptual effort on recall of spoken word lists by young and older adults with good hearing and with mild-to-moderate hearing loss. In addition to poorer recall accuracy, ...

Aging and fluency-based illusions in recognition memory.
30 Aug 2009
We examined age-related differences in susceptibility to fluency-based memory illusions. The results from 2 experiments, in which 2 different methods were used to enhance the fluency of recognition test items, revealed that older and young adults ...

Evaluative conditioning (EC) is a central mechanism for both classic and current theories of attitude formation. In contrast to Pavlovian conditioning, it is often conceptualized as a form of evaluative learning that occurs without awareness of the ...

Contrast effects in priming paradigms: Implications for theory and research on implicit attitudes.
30 Aug 2009
Contrast effects have been studied in dozens of experimental paradigms, including the measurement of attitudes in the social psychological literature. However, nearly all of this work has been conducted using explicit reports. In the present ...
