Semantic congruity affects numerical judgments similarly in monkeys and humans.
Monkeys (Macaca mulatta) were trained to order visual arrays based on their number of elements and to conditionally choose the array with the larger or smaller number of elements dependent on a color cue. When the screen background was red, monkeys were reinforced for choosing the smaller numerical value first. When the screen background was blue, monkeys were reinforced for choosing the larger...
متن کاملEnhancing semantic congruity effects with category-contingent comparative judgments
In each of two experiments the direction of a binary comparison was contingent on the category of the stimulus pair. In one experiment, participants had to compare the size of animals from memory. On congruent trials, they had to select the smaller animal if both were small and the larger if both were large and on incongruent trials they selected the larger if both were small and the smaller if...
متن کاملSpatial iconicity affects semantic relatedness judgments.
Three experiments were conducted to examine whether spatial iconicity affects semantic-relatedness judgments. Subjects made speeded decisions with regard to whether members of a simultaneously presented word pair were semantically related. In Experiment 1, the words were presented one above the other. In the experimental pair, the words denoted parts of larger objects (e.g., ATTIC-BASEMENT). Th...
متن کاملSpatial Congruity in Audiovisual Synchrony Judgments
Rainer Guski Dept. of Psychology, Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany [email protected] Abstract The systematic analysis of the perception of audiovisual synchrony has shown that auditory delays are tolerated to a certain extent in synchrony judgments, but the variation of spatial separation between light and sound has brought conflicting results: While Lewald & Guski (2003) did not find a...
متن کاملHand position affects saccadic reaction times in monkeys and humans.
In daily life, activities requiring the hand and eye to work separately are as frequent as activities requiring tight eye-hand coordination, and we effortlessly switch from one type of activity to the other. Such flexibility is unlikely to be achieved without each effector "knowing" where the other one is at all times, even when it is static. Here, we provide behavioral evidence that the mere p...
