Estimating lighting direction in scenes with multiple objects
To recover the reflectance and shape of an object in a scene, the human visual system must account for the properties of the light illuminating the...
-
Direction and distance information in memory for locations of objects relative to landmarks and boundaries
An observer often remembers an object’s location on the basis of its direction and distance from reference objects. Two kinds of reference object are...

Level-specific residuals and diagnostic measures, plots, and tests for random effects selection in multilevel and mixed models
Multilevel data structures are often found in multiple substantive research areas, and multilevel models (MLMs) have been widely used to allow for...

A key role of orientation in the coding of visual motion direction
Despite the fundamental importance of visual motion processing, our understanding of how the brain represents basic aspects of motion is incomplete....

Face inversion does not affect the reversed congruency effect of gaze
In a spatial Stroop task, the eye-gaze target produces the reversed congruency effect—responses become shorter when the gaze direction and its...

Guessing as a learning intervention: A meta-analytic review of the prequestion effect
Giving students test questions before they have learned the correct answers (i.e., prequestions) enhances learning. However, existing research has...
-
A diffusion model for the congruency sequence effect
Two-choice reaction tasks for which stimuli differ on irrelevant and relevant dimensions (e.g., Simon, flanker, and Stroop tasks) show congruency...
-
Direct eye gaze enhances the ventriloquism effect
The “ventriloquism effect” describes an illusory phenomenon where the perceived location of an auditory stimulus is pulled toward the location of a...

Investigating mechanisms of the attentional repulsion effect: A diffusion model analysis
This article investigates the decisional and attentional drivers of the attentional repulsion effect (ARE) using the diffusion decision model (DDM)....
-
The drawing effect: Evidence for costs and benefits using pure and mixed lists
Drawing a referent of a to-be-remembered word often results in better recognition and recall of this word relative to a control task in which the...

Effect of repetition of vertical and horizontal routes on navigation performance in Australian bull ants
Solitarily foraging ant species differ in their reliance on their two primary navigational systems— path integration and visual learning. Despite...

The deceptive nature of associative word pairs: the effects of associative direction on judgments of learning
The accuracy of judgments of learning (JOLs) in forecasting later recall of cue–target pairs is sensitive to associative direction. JOLs are...

Order effects in stimulus discrimination challenge established models of comparative judgement: A meta-analytic review of the Type B effect
This paper provides a comprehensive review of the Type B effect (TBE), a phenomenon reflected in the observation that discrimination sensitivity...

Differential Item Functioning Analysis Without A Priori Information on Anchor Items: QQ Plots and Graphical Test
Differential item functioning (DIF) analysis is an important step in establishing the validity of measurements. Most traditional methods for DIF...
-
Temporal grou** and direction of serial recall
When lists are presented with temporal pauses between groups of items, participants’ response times reiterate those pauses. Accuracy is also...

Does gaze direction of fearful faces facilitate the processing of threat? An ERP study of spatial precuing effects
Eye gaze is very important for attentional orienting in social life. By adopting the event-related potential (ERP) technique, we explored whether...
-
Repeatedly experiencing the McGurk effect induces long-lasting changes in auditory speech perception
In the McGurk effect, presentation of incongruent auditory and visual speech evokes a fusion percept different than either component modality. We...
-
The Simon effect under reversed visual feedback
Our aim was to study the processes involved in the spatial coding of the body during actions producing multiple simultaneous effects. We specifically...
-
The temporal visual oddball effect is not caused by repetition suppression
The oddball paradigm is commonly used to investigate human time perception. Trains of identical repeated events (‘standards’) are presented, only to...

The effect of task load, information reliability and interdependency on anticipation performance
In sport, coaches often explicitly provide athletes with stable contextual information related to opponent action preferences to enhance anticipation...
