Chua, Kao-Wei; Bub, Daniel N.; Masson, Michael E. J.; Gauthier, Isabel – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Seeing pictures of objects activates the motor cortex and can have an influence on subsequent grasping actions. However, the exact nature of the motor representations evoked by these pictures is unclear. For example, action plans engaged by pictures could be most affected by direct visual input and computed online based on object shape.…

Landy, David; Goldstone, Robert L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2007
In 4 experiments, the authors explored the role of visual layout in rule-based syntactic judgments. Participants judged the validity of a set of algebraic equations that tested their ability to apply the order of operations. In each experiment, a nonmathematical grouping pressure was manipulated to support or interfere with the mathematical…

Brockmole, James R.; Castelhano, Monica S.; Henderson, John M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2006
In contextual cueing, the position of a target within a group of distractors is learned over repeated exposure to a display with reference to a few nearby items rather than to the global pattern created by the elements. The authors contrasted the role of global and local contexts for contextual cueing in naturalistic scenes. Experiment 1 showed…

Presson, Clark C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 1982
Three experiments involved imagining the result of either an array rotating relative to a fixed viewer or a viewer rotating relative to a fixed array. The data suggested that adults use literal, concrete strategies to solve these problems. (Author/PN)
