Robidoux, Serje; Stolz, Jennifer; Besner, Derek – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Two lexical decision experiments examined the joint effects of stimulus quality, semantic context, and cue-target associative strength when all factors were intermixed in a block of trials. Both experiments found a three-way interaction. Semantic context and stimulus quality interacted when associative strength between cue-target pairs was strong,…

Olson, Ingrid R.; Jiang, Yuhong; Moore, Katherine Sledge – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
The ability to remember visual stimuli over a short delay period is limited by the small capacity of visual working memory (VWM). Here the authors investigate the role of learning in enhancing VWM. Participants saw 2 spatial arrays separated by a 1-s interval. The 2 arrays were identical except for 1 location. Participants had to detect the…

Smith, Marilyn Chapnik – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1979
Contextual facilitation appears to depend upon the mode of analysis of the prime. If the prime is analyzed as a meaningful unit, facilitation occurs. However, if it is subjected to a more discrete, letter-by-letter analysis, the priming effect vanishes. (Author/CP)

Becker, Curtis A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1979
Schuberth and Eimas (EJ 159 939) reported that context and frequency effects added to determine reaction times in a lexical decision (word v nonword) task. The present reexamination shows that context and frequency do interact, with semantic context facilitating the processing of low-frequency words more than high-frequency words. (Author/CP)
