Chengzhen Liu; Qianling Huang; Geng Li; Dahong Xu; Xi Li; Zifu Shi; Shen Tu – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2024
The process of creative problem-solving (CPS) commonly demands that individuals consciously or unconsciously integrate creative ideas from a vast array of diverse information. Using a masked priming paradigm and the Chinese remote associates test (RAT), this study provides innovative behavioral evidence for the integration of multiple unconscious…

Ju, Jangkyu; Cho, Yang Seok – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Previous studies on value-driven attentional capture (VDAC) have demonstrated that the uncertainty of reward value modulates attentional allocation via associative learning. However, it is unclear whether such attentional exploration is executed based on the amount of potential reward information available for refining value prediction or the…

Sapey-Triomphe, Laurie-Anne; Weilnhammer, Veith A.; Wagemans, Johan – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Predictive coding theories of autism suggest that symptoms could result from an atypical learning of expectations. We assessed whether adults with autism could learn expectations in an uncertain context. Twenty-nine neurotypicals and 25 autistic adults participated in an associative learning task. After hearing a tone, participants had to predict…

Kristi Hendrickson; Katlyn Bay; Philip Combiths; Meaghan Foody; Elizabeth Walker – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Objectives: We provide a novel application of psycholinguistic theories and methods to the field of auditory training to provide preliminary data regarding which minimal pair contrasts are more difficult for listeners with typical hearing to distinguish in real-time. Design: Using eye-tracking, participants heard a word and selected the…

Wittmann, Bianca C.; Satirer, Yilmaz – Learning & Memory, 2022
Visual imagery and mental reconstruction of scenes are considered core components of episodic memory retrieval. Individuals with absent visual imagery (aphantasia) score lower on tests of autobiographical memory, suggesting that aphantasia may be associated with differences in episodic and associative processing. In this online study, we tested…

Kikas, Katarina; Westbrook, R. Frederick; Holmes, Nathan M. – Learning & Memory, 2021
Four experiments examined the effects of a dangerous context and a systemic epinephrine injection on sensory preconditioning in rats. In each experiment, rats were exposed to presentations of a tone and light in stage 1, light-shock pairings in stage 2, and test presentations of the tone alone and light alone in stage 3. Presentations of the tone…

Tseng, Chien-Chih; Hu, Jon-Fan; Chang, Li-Yun; Chen, Hsueh-Chih – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2023
This study aimed to determine how Chinese children adapt to Chinese orthography-phonology correspondence by acquiring phonetic radical awareness (PRA). This study used two important Chinese encoding approaches (rote and orthographic approaches) as the developmental trajectory, in which the present study hypothesized that phonological awareness…

Chen, Siyi; Shi, Zhuanghua; Müller, Hermann J.; Geyer, Thomas – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Contextual cueing refers to the guidance of search by associative learning of the location of task-relevant target items in relation to the consistent arrangement of distractor ("context") items in the search display. The present study investigated whether such target-distractor associations could also be formed in a cross-modal search…

Barrón-Martínez, Julia B.; Arias-Trejo, Natalia; Salvador-Cruz, Judith – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2022
From the second year of life, children with typical development (TD) demonstrate the ability to form word-word relations. However, this ability has received little attention in children with Down syndrome (DS). We investigated their ability to establish associative relationships between words that tend to occur in the same context. Two groups of…

Rück, Franziska; Dudschig, Carolin; Mackenzie, Ian G.; Vogt, Anne; Leuthold, Hartmut; Kaup, Barbara – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
In experiments investigating the processing of true and false negative sentences, it is often reported that polarity interacts with truth-value, in the sense that true sentences lead to faster reaction times than false sentences in affirmative conditions whereas the same does not hold for negative sentences. Various reasons for this difference…

Cancino, Marco; Silva, Javier; Gatica, Francisca – MEXTESOL Journal, 2021
It is well documented in the cognitive literature that visual stimuli create strong memory connections (Shapiro & Waters, 2005). In L2 research, mnemonic devices have been found to be a relevant factor in the development of vocabulary learning (Sagarra & Alba, 2006). However, the extent to which visual cues are needed in the association of…
