Raccah, Omri; Doelling, Keith B.; Davachi, Lila; Poeppel, David – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
While our perceptual experience seems to unfold continuously over time, episodic memory preserves distinct events for storage and recollection. Previous work shows that stability in encoding context serves to temporally bind individual items into sequential composite events. This phenomenon has been almost exclusively studied using visual and…

Barrouillet, Pierre; Camos, Valérie; Minamoto, Takehiro; Nishiyama, Satoru; Chooi, Weng Tink; Morita, Aiko; Logie, Robert H.; Saito, Satoru – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Although working memory (WM) is usually defined as a cognitive system coordinating processing and storage in the short term, in most WM models, memory aspects have been developed more fully than processing systems, and many studies of WM tasks have tended to focus on memory performance. The present study investigated WM functioning without…

Belletier, Clément; Doherty, Jason M.; Graham, Agnieszka J.; Rhodes, Stephen; Cowan, Nelson; Naveh-Benjamin, Moshe; Barrouillet, Pierre; Camos, Valérie; Logie, Robert H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
How working memory supports dual-task performance is the focus of a long-standing debate. Most previous research on this topic has focused on participant performance data. In three experiments, we investigated whether changes in participant-reported strategies across single- and dual-task conditions might help resolve this debate by offering new…

Greene, Nathaniel R.; Martin, Benjamin A.; Naveh-Benjamin, Moshe – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Dividing attention (DA) between a memory task and a secondary task results in deficits in memory performance across a wide array of memory tasks, but these effects are larger when DA occurs at encoding than at retrieval. Although some research suggests the effects of DA are equal for item and associative memory, thereby suggesting that DA disrupts…

Stewart, Elizabeth C.; Pittman, Andrea L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether long-term musical training enhances the ability to perceive and learn new auditory information. Listeners with extensive musical experience were expected to detect, learn, and retain novel words more effectively than participants without musical training. Advantages of musical training…

Bahrami Balani, Alex – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
People's everyday lives offer plenty of situations where complex processing of information takes place, in which information needs to transfer across modalities to achieve a behavioral goal. The study examined the differential effects on object detection by a visual, verbal, or auditory cue held in working memory (WM), and the role of concurrent…

Xia, Lihua; Bak, Thomas H.; Vega-Mendoza, Mariana; Sorace, Antonella – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2023
The current study examined cognitive effects of two pathways of second language (L2) acquisition longitudinally in Chinese speakers learning English in an L2-dominant environment. Thirty-nine participants who attended an intensive 10-week English course (L2-instruction group) were compared to 38 participants who attended regular university courses…

Durst, Moritz; Janczyk, Markus – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
A frequent observation in dual-task studies is the backward crosstalk effect (BCE), meaning that aspects of a secondary Task 2 influence Task 1 performance. Up to this point, 2 major types of the BCE were investigated: a BCE based on dimensional overlap between both stimuli and/or responses (the compatibility-based BCE), and a BCE based on whether…

Lifshitz-Ben-Basat, Adi; Fostick, Leah – Annals of Dyslexia, 2019
Research suggests that a central difficulty in dyslexia may be impaired rapid temporal processing. Good temporal processing is also needed for musical perception, which relies on the ability to detect rapid changes. Our study is the first to measure the perception of adults with and without dyslexia on all three dimensions of music (rhythm, pitch,…

Almomani, Jehad Ali – International Education Studies, 2019
The aim of this study was to determine the preferred cognitive learning patterns among secondary students and their effect on their achievement in physics. To achieve the objective of the study, the researcher designed a scale of cognitive learning patterns (VAK) that consisted of (16) items, and after verifying its validity and reliability, it…

Isolating Component Processes of Posterror Slowing with the Psychological Refractory Period Paradigm
Steinhauser, Marco; Ernst, Benjamin; Ibald, Kevin W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Posterror slowing (PES) refers to an increased response time following errors. While PES has traditionally been attributed to control adjustments, recent evidence suggested that PES reflects interference. The present study investigated the hypothesis that control and interference represent 2 components of PES that differ with respect to their time…

Roux, Sébastien; Bonin, Patrick – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Seven experiments tested, whether when naming a colored object (e.g., "CAR"), its color (e.g., "red") is phonologically encoded. In the first experiment, adults had to say aloud the names of colored line drawings of objects that were each displayed among 3 black-and-white line drawings (Experiment 1a) or that were presented…

Weinbach, Noam; Kalanthroff, Eyal; Avnit, Amir; Henik, Avishai – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
The goal of the present study was to examine if and how arousal can modulate response inhibition. Two competing hypotheses can be drawn from previous literature. One holds that alerting cues that elevate arousal should result in an impulsive response and therefore impair response inhibition. The other suggests that alerting enhances processing of…

Dow, Gayle T. – Creativity Research Journal, 2015
Previous work has shown that the presence of examples may lead to cryptomnesia, or inadvertent plagiarism, on creative tasks. Various experiential and environmental attributes may magnify this finding. For instance, novices, with limited knowledge, may be more prone to inadvertently plagiarize examples, and increases in cognitive load may result…

Rey, Amandine Eve; Riou, Benoit; Muller, Dominique; Dabic, Stéphanie; Versace, Rémy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
Does a visual mask need to be perceptually present to disrupt processing? In the present research, we proposed to explore the link between perceptual and memory mechanisms by demonstrating that a typical sensory phenomenon (visual masking) can be replicated at a memory level. Experiment 1 highlighted an interference effect of a visual mask on the…
