Direct linkHood, Audrey V. B.; Charbonneau, Brooke; Hutchison, Keith A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Previous research has shown that Stroop effects interact with working memory capacity (WMC) more strongly with lists of mostly congruent items. Although the predominant explanation for this relationship is goal maintenance, some research has challenged whether listwide effects truly reflect goal-maintenance abilities. The current study improved…

Verbruggen, Frederick; Logan, Gordon D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2008
Cognitive control theories attribute control to executive processes that adjust and control behavior online. Theories of automaticity attribute control to memory retrieval. In the present study, online adjustments and memory retrieval were examined, and their roles in controlling performance in the stop-signal paradigm were elucidated. There was…

Peer reviewedGagne, Ellen D.; Britton, Bruce K. – Contemporary Educational Psychology, 1982
An experiment was conducted to examine how objectives influence organization of information recalled from text. Objectives were hypothesized to affect sequence of attention, rehearsal during a review period, and to serve as retrieval cues. Results indicated that organization by objectives occurs during rehearsal but not encoding or retrieval…
