Castela, Marta; Erdfelder, Edgar – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
The recognition heuristic (RH) theory predicts that, in comparative judgment tasks, if one object is recognized and the other is not, the recognized one is chosen. The memory-state heuristic (MSH) extends the RH by assuming that choices are not affected by recognition judgments per se, but by the memory states underlying these judgments (i.e.,…

Declerck, Mathieu; Philipp, Andrea M.; Koch, Iring – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
To investigate bilingual language control, prior language switching studies presented visual objects, which had to be named in different languages, typically indicated by a visual cue. The present study examined language switching of predictable responses by introducing a novel sequence-based language switching paradigm. In 4 experiments,…

Koenig, Stephan; Lachnit, Harald – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2011
We report how the trajectories of saccadic eye movements are affected by memory interference acquired during associative learning. Human participants learned to perform saccadic choice responses based on the presentation of arbitrary central cues A, B, AC, BC, AX, BY, X, and Y that were trained to predict the appearance of a peripheral target…

Kareev, Yaakov; Fiedler, Klaus; Avrahami, Judith – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2009
A skew in the base rate of upcoming events can often provide a better cue for accurate predictions than a contingency between signals and events. The authors study prediction behavior and test people's sensitivity to both base rate and contingency; they also examine people's ability to compare the benefits of both for prediction. They formalize…

Dimigen, Olaf; Sommer, Werner; Hohlfeld, Annette; Jacobs, Arthur M.; Kliegl, Reinhold – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2011
Brain-electric correlates of reading have traditionally been studied with word-by-word presentation, a condition that eliminates important aspects of the normal reading process and precludes direct comparisons between neural activity and oculomotor behavior. In the present study, we investigated effects of word predictability on eye movements (EM)…
