Processing word meaning often appears effortless, yet the language system must frequently resolve ambiguity by integrating broad contextual information to ensure comprehension. Understanding the mechanisms underlying the facilitation of glo...

Daily, we perform activities in the presence of others (e.g., office work). While it's well-established that the mere presence of others can influence our performance, it is less clear whether others' performance, rather than just their pre...

Memory for episodic associations declines with ageing due to decreased recollection abilities. Unitization-the encoding of multiple items as one integrated entity-has been shown to support familiarity-based retrieval that is independent of ...
The Pretesting Effect: Exploring the Impact of Feedback and Final Test Timing [0.03%]
预测试效应：探索反馈及最终测试时机的影响

The pretesting effect suggests that attempting and failing to guess unknown information can improve memory compared to errorless study. A relevant question concerns the optimal timing for providing corrective feedback and administering the ...
The Flexibility of Working Memory in Drawing on Episodic Long-Term Memory Representations in Serial Recall [0.03%]
工作记忆在系列回忆中利用情景长期记忆表征的灵活性

Prior episodic long-term memory (LTM) can enhance working memory (WM) by improving recall of WM representations that match pre-learnt information and by freeing up capacity for new information. In this study, we investigated the flexibility...

Humans and nonhuman animals learn to perform actions by associating actions with outcomes. In everyday life, outcomes sometimes occur only after a delay, and at an unexpected moment. The ability to connect actions and delayed outcomes has r...

Memory strategies such as visual imagery and rehearsal are widely reported by participants as means to enhance recall. Their underlying mechanisms are thought to differ. Visual imagery is believed to engage both visual and spatial aspects o...
Does the Level of Temporal Demand Affect Activation of the Mental Timeline? [0.03%]

The space-time congruency effect indicates faster processing of past-/future-related words with the left/right response key, suggesting the presence of the horizontal Mental Time Line (MTL). Typically, this effect is observed in the tasks w...

The Doctrine of Concordance is the implicit assumption that cognitive processes, behavior, and phenomenological experience are highly correlated (Tulving, 1989). Tulving challenged this assumption, pointing to domains in which conscious exp...

The development of robust frameworks to understand how the human brain represents conscious and unconscious perceptual contents is paramount to make progress in the neuroscience of consciousness. Recent functional MRI studies using multi-vo...
