Rawal, Amit; Tseng, Philip – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Visual statistical learning (VSL) occurs when participants are exposed to spatially or temporally ordered stimuli, and become increasingly sensitive to them without explicitly realizing the hidden regularities. In the temporal domain of VSL, participants are usually exposed to shape-triplets, followed by the use of familiarity judgments and…

Giménez-Fernández, Tamara; Vicente-Conesa, Francisco; Luque, David; Vadillo, Miguel A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
In a typical probabilistic cuing experiment, participants are asked to find a visual target among a series of distractors. Although participants are not informed about this, the target appears more frequently in one region of the display, resulting in faster search times for targets located in this region. This bias is thought to depend on a…

Iao, Lai-Sang; Roeser, Jens; Justice, Lucy; Jones, Gary – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Concurrent learning of adjacent and nonadjacent dependencies has been shown in adults only. This study extended this line of research by examining dependency-specific learning for both adjacent and nonadjacent dependencies concurrently in both adults and children. Seventy adults aged 18 to 64 (40 women, 30 men; Experiment 1) and 64 children aged…
