An event-based account of coordination stabilityPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 13 - Trang 702-710 - 2006

Constraints underlying bimanual coordination have traditionally been explained by dynamic interactions between the effectors. However, the present experiments demonstrate that a fundamental constraint on bimanual performance is the manner in which task goals are represented. In Experiment 1, participants vocalized during in-phase and anti-phase bimanual movements. As expected, most participants sp...... hiện toàn bộ
The effects of emotion on tip-of-the-tongue statesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - - 2010
Bennett L. Schwartz
Tip-of-the-tongue states (TOTs) are judgments of the likelihood of imminent retrieval for items currently not recalled. In the present study, the relation of emotion to the experience of TOTs is explored. Emotion-inducing questions (e.g.), “What is the term for ritual suicide in Japan?”) were embedded among neutral questions (e.g., “What is the capital of Denmark?”). Participants attempted to reca...... hiện toàn bộ
Is it a judgment of representativeness? Re-examining the birth sequence problemPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 30 - Trang 731-738 - 2022
Lim M. Leong, Johannes Müller-Trede, Craig R. M. McKenzie
Although all birth orders in the “birth sequence problem” are equiprobable, most participants judge the less representative order as less likely than the more representative order. But this well-known problem confounds representativeness with the direction in which birth orders are compared. We hypothesized and corroborated in three experiments (total N = 1,136) that participants pragmatically inf...... hiện toàn bộ
A generalized, likelihood-free method for posterior estimationPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 21 Số 2 - Trang 227-250 - 2014
Turner, Brandon M., Sederberg, Per B.
Recent advancements in Bayesian modeling have allowed for likelihood-free posterior estimation. Such estimation techniques are crucial to the understanding of simulation-based models, whose likelihood functions may be difficult or even impossible to derive. However, current approaches are limited by their dependence on sufficient statistics and/or tolerance thresholds. In this article, we provide ...... hiện toàn bộ
Semantic interference and associative facilitation from words presented in rapid serial visual presentationPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 14 - Trang 755-761
Miranda D. Atkinson, Catherine L. Caldwell-Harris, Mary L. Still, Alison L. Morris
Semantic interference in picture naming is readily obtained when categorically related distractor words are displayed with picture targets; however, this is not typically the case when both primes and targets are words. Researchers have argued that to obtain semantic interference for word primes and targets, the prime must be shown for a sufficient duration, prime processing must be made difficult...... hiện toàn bộ
Good vibrations: A review of vocal expressions of positive emotionsPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 27 - Trang 237-265 - 2020
Roza G. Kamiloğlu, Agneta H. Fischer, Disa A. Sauter
Researchers examining nonverbal communication of emotions are becoming increasingly interested in differentiations between different positive emotional states like interest, relief, and pride. But despite the importance of the voice in communicating emotion in general and positive emotion in particular, there is to date no systematic review of what characterizes vocal expressions of different posi...... hiện toàn bộ
Online mouse cursor trajectories distinguish phonological activation by linguistic and nonlinguistic soundsPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 30 - Trang 362-372 - 2022
Anuenue Kukona, Adrian Jordan
Four online mouse cursor tracking experiments (total N = 208) examined the activation of phonological representations by linguistic and nonlinguistic auditory stimuli. Participants hearing spoken words (e.g., “bell”) produced less direct mouse cursor trajectories toward corresponding pictures or text when visual arrays also included phonologically related competitors (e.g., belt) as compared with ...... hiện toàn bộ
Active and passive contributions to spatial learningPsychonomic Bulletin & Review - Tập 19 - Trang 1-23 - 2011
Elizabeth R. Chrastil, William H. Warren
It seems intuitively obvious that active exploration of a new environment will lead to better spatial learning than will passive exposure. However, the literature on this issue is decidedly mixed—in part, because the concept itself is not well defined. We identify five potential components of active spatial learning and review the evidence regarding their role in the acquisition of landmark, route...... hiện toàn bộ
