Cook, Richard; Press, Clare; Dickinson, Anthony; Heyes, Cecilia – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
The associative sequence learning model proposes that the development of the mirror system depends on the same mechanisms of associative learning that mediate Pavlovian and instrumental conditioning. To test this model, two experiments used the reduction of automatic imitation through incompatible sensorimotor training to assess whether mirror…

Kliegl, Reinhold; Risse, Sarah; Laubrock, Jochen – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
Using the gaze-contingent boundary paradigm with the boundary placed after word n, the experiment manipulated preview of word n + 2 for fixations on word n. There was no preview benefit for 1st-pass reading on word n + 2, replicating the results of K. Rayner, B. J. Juhasz, and S. J. Brown (2007), but there was a preview benefit on the 3-letter…

Fischler, Ira; Goodman, George O. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1978
Examines the latency of associative activation in memory by varying the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) between a prime word and a test word, thereby establishing the minimum SOA needed to produce a significant associative priming effect on lexical decision times. (Author/RK)

Fischler, Ira – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977
Subjects were asked to decide if a pair of visually presented letter strings were both words (lexical decision task). Results supported an automatic spread of excitation model of associative facilitation. (Editor/RK)
