Notebaert, Wim; Verguts, Tom – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
Congruency effects are typically smaller after incongruent than after congruent trials. One explanation is in terms of higher levels of cognitive control after detection of conflict (conflict adaptation; e.g., M. M. Botvinick, T. S. Braver, D. M. Barch, C. S. Carter, & J. D. Cohen, 2001). An alternative explanation for these results is based on…

Woodman, Geoffrey F.; Luck, Steven J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
In many theories of cognition, researchers propose that working memory and perception operate interactively. For example, in previous studies researchers have suggested that sensory inputs matching the contents of working memory will have an automatic advantage in the competition for processing resources. The authors tested this hypothesis by…

Kliegl, Reinhold; Risse, Sarah; Laubrock, Jochen – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
Using the gaze-contingent boundary paradigm with the boundary placed after word n, the experiment manipulated preview of word n + 2 for fixations on word n. There was no preview benefit for 1st-pass reading on word n + 2, replicating the results of K. Rayner, B. J. Juhasz, and S. J. Brown (2007), but there was a preview benefit on the 3-letter…
