Perceiving and remembering events cross-linguistically: Evidence from dual-task paradigms

What role does language play during attention allocation in perceiving and remembering events? We recorded adults’ eye movements as they studied animated motion events for a later recognition task. We compared native speakers of two languages that u...
متن کاملPERCEIVING EVENTS 1 Running head: PERCEIVING STRUCTURE IN EVENTS Perceiving, Remembering and Communicating Structure in Events
How do people perceive routine events such as making a bed as they unfold in time? Research on knowledge structures suggests that people conceive of events as goal-directed partonomic hierarchies. Here, participants segmented videos of events into coarse and fine units on separate viewings; some described the activity of each unit as well. Both segmentation and descriptions support the hierarch...
متن کاملGrounding development in cognitive processes.
Developmentalists have made remarkable progress over the last several decades in detailing what children know at various points in development. Less progress has been made, however, in detailing the processes through which knowledge is realized in real-time tasks, or in detailing the processes of developmental change. We argue that the operating characteristics of perceiving and remembering pro...
متن کاملReconstructive Memory, Psychology of
Memories are reconstructions of past events, not perfect recordings. These reconstructions can be accurate, but may also contain errors. Since the early 1900s, researchers have investigated memory processes in the laboratory and have demonstrated that reconstructions occur regardless of whether memories are retrieved after short or long periods. Reconstructive errors in memory retrieval have be...
متن کاملThe Role of Overlap and End State in Perceiving and Remembering Events
This work investigates how we organize complex, multiple and overlapping events. Two hypotheses have been proposed in investigating the cognitive principles that potentially constrain how humans construct event temporal relations. The end state bias hypothesis focuses on the end points of events. The overlap hypothesis focuses on whether events overlap or not in time. Participants viewed animat...
