Claudia Araya; Klaus Oberauer; Satoru Saito – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
The Hebb repetition effect shows improvement in serial recall of repeated lists compared to random nonrepeated lists. Previous research using simple span tasks found that the Hebb repetition effect is limited to constant uninterrupted lists, suggesting chunking as the mechanism of list learning. However, the Hebb repetition effect has been found…

Meier, Beat; Cottini, Milvia – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Responding to a prospective memory task in the course of an ongoing activity requires switching tasks, which typically comes at a cost in performing the ongoing activity. Similarly, when the prospective memory task is deactivated, a cost can occur when previously relevant prospective memory targets appear in the course of the ongoing activity. In…

Strickland, Luke; Heathcote, Andrew; Humphreys, Michael S.; Loft, Shayne – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Event-based prospective memory (PM) tasks require individuals to remember to perform a previously planned action when they encounter a specific event. Often, the natural environments in which PM tasks occur are embedded are constantly changing, requiring humans to adapt by learning. We examine one such adaptation by integrating PM target learning…

Nosofsky, Robert M.; Cao, Rui; Harding, Samuel M.; Shiffrin, Richard M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Participants gave recognition judgments for short lists of pictures of everyday objects. Pictures in a given list were an equal mixture of three types that varied according to the way they were used as targets and foils earlier in the same session. Under consistent-mapping (CM), targets and foils never switch roles; under varied-mapping (VM),…

Dobbins, Ian G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The recognition memory receiver operating characteristic (ROC) is typically asymmetric with a characteristic elevation of the left-hand portion. Whereas the unequal variance signal detection model (uvsd) assumes the asymmetry results because old item evidence is noisier than new item evidence, the dual process signal detection model (dpsd) assumes…

Rosselet-Jordan, Fiona Laura; Abadie, Marlène; Mariz-Elsig, Stéphanie; Camos, Valérie – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Long-term semantic memory (LTM) is known for affecting recall during working memory (WM) tasks. However, the way LTM intervenes in WM remains unknown. Moreover, the available findings are incongruent concerning how attention modulates the impact of LTM on WM. To examine this issue, the involvement of LTM representations in a complex span task was…

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…

Jianqin Wang; Henry Otgaar; Mark L. Howe – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
When memories of past rewarding experiences are distorted, are relevant decision-making preferences impacted? Although recent research has demonstrated the important role of episodic memory in value-based decision making, very few have examined the role of false memory in guiding novel decision making. The current study combined the pictorial…

Past work has shown that eye movements are affected by long-term memory across different tasks and instructional manipulations. In the current study, we tested whether these memory-based eye movements persist when memory retrieval is under intentional control. Participants encoded multiple scenes with six objects (three faces; three tools). Next,…

Peper, Phil; Alakbarova, Durna; Ball, B. Hunter – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Prospective memory (PM) refers to the ability to remember to complete a task at the appropriate moment in the future. Past research has found reminders can improve PM performance in both laboratory and naturalistic settings, but few projects have examined the circumstances when and what types of reminders are most beneficial. Three experiments in…

Donna Bryce; Florian Kattner; Teresa Birngruber; Paul Wellingerhof – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Knowing what one knows and accurately monitoring one's own capacities and performance on a moment-to-moment basis are important determinants of task success. Individual differences in such metacognitive monitoring are well documented, but what determines an individual's monitoring accuracy in a particular context is yet to be fully understood. One…

Negen, James; Sandri, Angela; Lee, Sang Ah; Nardini, Marko – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Large walls and other typical boundaries strongly influence neural activity related to navigation and the representations of spatial layouts. They are also major aids to reliable navigation behavior in young children and nonhuman animals. Is this because they are physical boundaries (barriers to movement), or because they present certain visual…

Winiger, Samuel; Singmann, Henrik; Kellen, David – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Ongoing discussions on the nature of storage in visual working memory have mostly focused on 2 theoretical accounts: On one hand we have a discrete-state account, postulating that information in working memory is supported with high fidelity for a limited number of discrete items by a given number of "slots," with no information being…

Gao, Zaifeng; Li, Jiaofeng; Wu, Jinglan; Dai, Alessandro; Liao, Huayu; Shen, Mowei – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Working memory (WM) has a limited capacity; however, this limitation can be mitigated by selecting individual items from the set currently held in WM for prioritization. The selection mechanism underlying this prioritization ability is referred to as the focus of attention (FOA) in WM. Although impressive progress has been achieved in recent…

Unsworth, Nash; Robison, Matthew K.; Miller, Ashley L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Eight experiments (N = 2,003) assessed the relation between working memory capacity (WMC) and performance on the antisaccade task. Experiments 1-5 and 7 examined individual differences in aspects of goal management processes occurring during the preparatory delay of the antisaccade task. WMC tended to interact with delay interval suggesting that…
