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 ...

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 ...

Eye movements and the perceptual span in older and younger readers.
30 Aug 2009 The size of the perceptual span (or the span of effective vision) in older readers was examined with the moving window paradigm (G. W. McConkie & K. Rayner, 1975). Two experiments demonstrated that older readers have a smaller and more symmetric ...
