Luo, Yuyan; Beck, Whitney – Developmental Science, 2010
Twelve-month-olds realize that when an agent cannot see an object, her incomplete perceptions still guide her goal-directed actions. What would happen if the agent had incomplete perceptions because she could see only one part of the object, for example one side of a screen?

Geyer, Thomas; Shi, Zhuanghua; Muller, Hermann J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Three experiments examined memory-based guidance of visual search using a modified version of the contextual-cueing paradigm (Jiang & Chun, 2001). The target, if present, was a conjunction of color and orientation, with target (and distractor) features randomly varying across trials (multiconjunction search). Under these conditions, reaction times…

McKenna, Frank P.; Sharma, Dinkar – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2004
The relative contributions of slow and fast (online) components in a modified emotional Stroop task were evaluated. The slow component, neglected in previous research, was shown to lead to the prediction of a reversed emotional intrusion effect using pseudorandomly mixed negative and neutral stimuli. This prediction was supported in Experiments 1…
