Adaptive visual selection in feature space
Visual perception relies on efficient selection of task-relevant information for prioritized processing. A prevalent mode of selection is...

Stimulus Selection in a Q-learning Model Using Fisher Information and Monte Carlo Simulation
Reinforcement learning models have been extensively studied for decision-making tasks with reward feedback. However, in designing an experiment to...

Stimulus Preference Assessments
The use of effective reinforcers is paramount to the effective treatment for individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD).... -
Bayesian adaptive method for estimating speed–accuracy tradeoff functions of multiple task conditions
The speed–accuracy tradeoff (SAT) often makes psychophysical data difficult to interpret. Accordingly, the SAT experimental procedure and model were...

Stop-signal delay reflects response selection duration in stop-signal task
The stop-signal task (SST) is widely used for studying the speed of the latent process of response inhibition. The SST patterns are typically...

Validation of the adaptive scan method in the quest for time-efficient methods of testing auditory processes
A major barrier to the clinical application of psychophysical testing of central auditory processes is the time required to obtain precise estimates...

Endogenous attention enhances contrast appearance regardless of stimulus contrast
There has been enduring debate on how attention alters contrast appearance. Recent research indicates that exogenous attention enhances contrast...

Reaction Time “Mismatch Costs” Change with the Likelihood of Stimulus–Response Compatibility
Dyadic interactions require dynamic correspondence between one’s own movements and those of the other agent. This map** is largely viewed as...
-
Reinforcement learning of adaptive control strategies
Humans can up- or downregulate the degree to which they rely on task information for goal-directed behaviour, a process often referred to as...

A Review of Backward Higher-Order Conditioning: Implications for a Pavlovian Conditioning Analysis of Stimulus Equivalence
Stimulus equivalence (SE) is demonstrated when participants exposed to conditional discrimination training pass tests for reflexivity, symmetry,...

Knowing what to know: Implications of the choice of prior distribution on the behavior of adaptive design optimization
Adaptive design optimization (ADO) is a state-of-the-art technique for experimental design (Cavagnaro et al.,
2010 ). ADO dynamically identifies... -
Is adaptation involved in bilingual language production? A fresh look at the assumptions motivating potential bilingual-monolingual differences in adaptive control
One of the hottest debates in psychology—whether bilingual-monolingual differences exist in cognitive control—is at a stalemate. Here we propose that...

Revisiting Topography-Based and Selection-Based Verbal Behavior
In topography-based verbal behavior, different antecedent stimuli control different topographies of responding, whereas in selection-based verbal...

Online Simulator-Based Experimental Design for Cognitive Model Selection
The problem of model selection with a limited number of experimental trials has received considerable attention in cognitive science, where the role...

Attentional capture is modulated by stimulus saliency in visual search as evidenced by event-related potentials and alpha oscillations
This study used a typical four-item search display to investigate top-down control over attentional capture in an additional singleton paradigm. By...

Selection history contributes to suboptimal attention strategies
Attentional control balances the competing drives of performance maximization and effort minimization. One way the attention system minimizes effort...

The role of valence, arousal, stimulus type, and temporal paradigm in the effect of emotion on time perception: A meta-analysis
Anecdotal experiences show that the human perception of time is subjective, and changes with one’s emotional state. Over the past 25 years,...

Development of an adaptive test of musical scene analysis abilities for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners
Auditory scene analysis (ASA) is the process through which the auditory system makes sense of complex acoustic environments by organising sound...

Age differences in Inattentional blindness to emotional stimulus
Aging is associated with declines in attention, but also with a tendency to attend to emotionally positive information. When attention is engaged in...
