Kumar, Abhilasha A.; Balota, David A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
The phenomenological experience of lexical retrieval often involves repeated, active attempts to retrieve phonologically and/or semantically related information. However, the influence of these multiple retrieval attempts on subsequent lexical retrieval is presently unknown. We investigated the influence of passively viewing or actively retrieving…

Kumar, Abhilasha A.; Balota, David A.; Steyvers, Mark – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
We examined 3 different network models of representing semantic knowledge (5,018-word directed and undirected step distance networks, and an association-correlation network) to predict lexical priming effects. In Experiment 1, participants made semantic relatedness judgments for word pairs with varying path lengths. Response latencies for…

Kumar, Abhilasha A.; Balota, David A.; Habbert, Julia; Scaltritti, Michele; Maddox, Geoffrey B. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
The present experiments investigated the influence of combined phonological and semantic information on lexical retrieval, metacognitive retrieval states, and selection in an immediate multiple-choice task. Younger and older adults attempted to retrieve words (e.g., abdicate) from low-frequency word definitions. Retrieval was preceded by primes…
