Weisberg, Steven M.; Schinazi, Victor R.; Ferrario, Andrea; Newcombe, Nora S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Relying on shared tasks and stimuli to conduct research can enhance the replicability of findings and allow a community of researchers to collect large data sets across multiple experiments. This approach is particularly relevant for experiments in spatial navigation, which often require the development of unfamiliar large-scale virtual…

Kenett, Yoed N.; Levi, Effi; Anaki, David; Faust, Miriam – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Semantic distance is a determining factor in cognitive processes, such as semantic priming, operating upon semantic memory. The main computational approach to compute semantic distance is through latent semantic analysis (LSA). However, objections have been raised against this approach, mainly in its failure at predicting semantic priming. We…

Selmeczy, Diana; Dobbins, Ian G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
Prior literature has primarily focused on the negative influences of misleading external sources on memory judgments. This study investigated whether participants can capitalize on generally reliable recommendations in order to improve their net performance; the focus was on potential roles for metacognitive monitoring (i.e., knowledge about one's…
