How 7-month-olds interpret ambiguous motion events: category-based reasoning in infancy.

8 Jul 2009 This paper investigates the role of static and dynamic attributes for the animate-inanimate distinction in category-based reasoning of 7-month-olds. Three experiments tested infants' responses to movement events involving an unfamiliar animal and a ...

How children block learning from ignorant speakers.

6 Jul 2009 Preschool children typically do not learn words from ignorant or unreliable speakers. Here, we examined the mechanism by which these learning failures occur by modifying the comprehension test procedure that measures word learning. Following lexical ...

The objectification of overlearned sequences: a new view of spatial sequence synesthesia.

5 Jul 2009 In the phenomenon of spatial sequence synesthesia (SSS), subjects can articulate explicit spatial locations for sequences such as numbers, letters, weekdays, months, years, and other overlearned series. Similarly, abstract sequences can take on ...

A prototype analysis of gratitude: varieties of gratitude experiences.

4 Jul 2009 The present research tested the hypothesis that concepts of gratitude are prototypically organized and explored whether lay concepts of gratitude are broader than researchers' concepts of gratitude. In five studies, evidence was found that concepts ...

Unintended embodiment of concepts into percepts: sensory activation boosts attention for same-modality concepts in the attentional blink paradigm.

30 Jun 2009 This study shows that sensory priming facilitates reports of same-modality concepts in an attentional blink paradigm. Participants had to detect and report two target words (T1 and T2) presented for 53 ms each among a series of nonwords distractors ...

Spatial construction skills of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and young human children (Homo sapiens sapiens).

29 Jun 2009 Spatial construction tasks are basic tests of visual-spatial processing. Two studies have assessed spatial construction skills in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and young children (Homo sapiens sapiens) with a block modelling task. Study 1a subjects ...

Optimal experimental design for model discrimination.

29 Jun 2009 Models of a psychological process can be difficult to discriminate experimentally because it is not easy to determine the values of the critical design variables (e.g., presentation schedule, stimulus structure) that will be most informative in ...

Integrating experiential and distributional data to learn semantic representations.

29 Jun 2009 The authors identify 2 major types of statistical data from which semantic representations can be learned. These are denoted as experiential data and distributional data. Experiential data are derived by way of experience with the physical world and ...

Source monitoring 15 years later: what have we learned from fMRI about the neural mechanisms of source memory?

29 Jun 2009 Focusing primarily on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), this article reviews evidence regarding the roles of subregions of the medial temporal lobes, prefrontal cortex, posterior representational areas, and parietal cortex in source ...
