Spalek, Thomas M.; Lagroix, Hayley E. P.; Yanko, Matthew R.; Di Lollo, Vincent – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Identification accuracy for the second of two target (T2) is impaired when presented shortly after the first (T1). Does this attentional blink (AB) also impair the perception of the order of presentation? In four experiments, three letter targets (T1, T2, T3) were inserted in a stream of digit distractors displayed in rapid serial visual…

Arnold, Derek H.; Wegener, Signy V.; Brown, Francesca; Mattingley, Jason B. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Grapheme-color synesthesia is an atypical condition in which individuals experience sensations of color when reading printed graphemes such as letters and digits. For some grapheme-color synesthetes, seeing a printed grapheme triggers a sensation of color, but "hearing" the name of a grapheme does not. This dissociation allowed us to…

Demany, Laurent; Semal, Catherine; Pressnitzer, Daniel – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
Listeners had to compare, with respect to pitch (frequency), a pure tone (T) to a combination of pure tones presented subsequently (C). The elements of C were either synchronous, and therefore difficult to hear out individually, or asynchronous and therefore easier to hear out individually. In the "present/absent" condition, listeners had to judge…

Poom, Leo – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
The delayed discrimination methodology has been used to demonstrate a high-fidelity nondecaying visual short-term memory (VSTM) for so-called preattentive basic features. In the current Study, I show that the nondecaying high VSTM precision is not restricted to basic features by using the same method to measure memory precision for gait direction…

Jannati, Ali; Spalek, Thomas M.; Di Lollo, Vincent – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
Report of a second target (T2) is impaired when presented within 500 ms of the first (T1). This attentional blink (AB) is known to cause a delay in T2 processing during which T2 must be stored in a labile memory buffer. We explored the buffer's characteristics using different types of masks after T2. These characteristics were inferred by…

Vo, Melissa L. -H.; Wolfe, Jeremy M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
One might assume that familiarity with a scene or previous encounters with objects embedded in a scene would benefit subsequent search for those items. However, in a series of experiments we show that this is not the case: When participants were asked to subsequently search for multiple objects in the same scene, search performance remained…

Wuhr, Peter; Biebl, Rupert – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
This study investigates the impact of working memory (WM) load on response conflicts arising from spatial (non) correspondence between irrelevant stimulus location and response location (Simon effect). The dominant view attributes the Simon effect to automatic processes of location-based response priming. The automaticity view predicts…

Cheung, Olivia S.; Gauthier, Isabel – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Faces and objects of expertise compete for early perceptual processes and holistic processing resources (Gauthier, Curran, Curby, & Collins, 2003). Here, we examined the nature of interference on holistic face processing in working memory by comparing how various types of loads affect selective attention to parts of face composites. In dual…

Szmalec, Arnaud; Verbruggen, Frederick; Vandierendonck, Andre; Kemps, Eva – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
The current study examined the nature of the processes underlying working memory updating. In 4 experiments using the n-back paradigm, the authors demonstrate that continuous updating of items in working memory prevents strong binding of those items to their contexts in working memory, and hence leads to an increased susceptibility to proactive…

Wood, Justin N. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2011
Visual working memory (VWM) is widely thought to contain specialized buffers for retaining spatial and object information: a "spatial-object architecture." However, studies of adults, infants, and nonhuman animals show that visual cognition builds on core knowledge systems that retain more specialized representations: (1) spatiotemporal…

Endress, Ansgar D.; Mehler, Jacques – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Structural regularities in language have often been attributed to symbolic or statistical general purpose computations, whereas perceptual factors influencing such generalizations have received less interest. Here, we use phonotactic-like constraints as a case study to ask whether the structural properties of specific perceptual and memory…

Leblanc, Emilie; Jolicoeur, Pierre – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Previous research on the control of visuospatial attention showed that overlearned symbols like arrows have the potential to induce involuntary shifts of attention. Following work on the role of attentional control settings and of the content of working memory in the involuntary deployment of visuospatial attention, Pratt and Hommel (2003) found…

Fortin, Claudette; Schweickert, Richard; Gaudreault, Remi; Viau-Quesnel, Charles – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Recent studies suggest that timing and tasks involving executive control processes might require the same attentional resources. This should lead to interference when timing and executive tasks are executed concurrently. This study examined the interference between timing and task switching, an executive function. In 4 experiments, memory search…

Umemoto, Akina; Scolari, Miranda; Vogel, Edward K.; Awh, Edward – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Observers can voluntarily select which items are encoded into working memory, and the efficiency of this process strongly predicts memory capacity. Nevertheless, the present work suggests that voluntary intentions do not exclusively determine what is encoded into this online workspace. Observers indicated whether any items from a briefly stored…

Huang, Ying; Huang, Qiang; Chen, Xun; Wu, Xihong; Li, Liang – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
Perceptual integration of the sound directly emanating from the source with reflections needs both temporal storage and correlation computation of acoustic details. We examined whether the temporal storage is frequency dependent and associated with speech unmasking. In Experiment 1, a break in correlation (BIC) between interaurally correlated…
