Ivanov, Dragia; Nikolov, Stefan – Physics Education, 2011
This article presents a new technique for performing most well-known demonstrations of wave optics. Demonstrations which are normally very hard to show to more than a few people can be presented easily to very large audiences with excellent visibility for everyone. The proposed setup is easy to put together and use and can be very useful for…

Brunel, Lionel; Labeye, Elodie; Lesourd, Mathieu; Versace, Remy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2009
The aim of this study was to provide evidence that memory and perceptual processing are underpinned by the same mechanisms. Specifically, the authors conducted 3 experiments that emphasized the sensory aspect of memory traces. They examined their predictions with a short-term priming paradigm based on 2 distinct phases: a learning phase consisting…

Ziegler, Johannes, C.; Petrova, Ana; Ferrand, Ludovic – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2008
The role of phonology-to-spelling consistency (i.e., "feedback consistency") was investigated in 3 lexical decision experiments in both the visual and auditory modalities in French and English. No evidence for a feedback consistency effect was found in the visual modality, either in English or in French, despite the fact that consistency…
