چکیده

In 2 ERP experiments participants read 4-word sequences presented for 200 ms (RPVP paradigm) and were required to decide whether the word grammatical or not. Experiment 1, sequence consisted of either a grammatically correct sentence (e.g., she can sing now) an ungrammatical scrambled now she). A reduced N400 effect was obtained in compared sequences. 2, critical comparison between types sequences: transposed-word you that wrong, transposing adjacent central words form sequence) control worry, any still forms sequence). An reduction observed relative We interpret these effects as evidence elementary syntactic representation be rapidly constructed on basis parallel processing identities their parts-of-speech.

Examining information processing biases in spider phobia using the rapid serial visual presentation paradigm.

Empirical research has demonstrated the existence of attentional biases towards threat in anxiety disorders. Paradigms commonly used to assess attentional biases have failed to demonstrate consistent findings as well as reveal the specific features of attentional biases. The current study investigated the utility of the rapid serial visual presentation paradigm in assessing attentional biases a...

When Loading Working Memory Reduces Distraction: Behavioral and Electrophysiological Evidence from an Auditory-Visual Distraction Paradigm

The sensitivity of involuntary attention to top-down modulation was tested using an auditory-visual distraction task and a working memory (WM) load manipulation in subjects performing a simple visual classification task while ignoring contingent auditory stimulation. The sounds were repetitive standard tones (80%) and environmental novel sounds (20%). Distraction caused by the novel sounds was ...
