Abstract It can be argued that migrants express their own agency, via spatial practices, to change the meanings of spaces and places they occupy use. Although are not most powerful agents in our glocalized world, nevertheless sometimes consciously more often unconsciously, compete with others visually define micro-worlds for themselves and, therefore, as well (Krase & Shortell, 2015). Of co...

Working memory (WM), an important posit in cognitive science, allows one to temporarily store and manipulate information in the service of ongoing tasks. WM has been traditionally classified as an explicit memory system-that is, as operating on and maintaining only consciously perceived information. Recently, however, several studies have questioned this assumption, purporting to provide eviden...

Imagery is one of the various techniques that poets and other writers consciously or unconsciously use to make their expressions more powerful. It is, therefore, imperative for readers have adequate knowledge about this literary technique, but most fail seriously notice application imagery describe how it assists in effective analysis pedagogical process. Particularly used poetry, ‘imagery’ has...

A substantial body of research has established that even when we are not consciously aware of the faces of others we are nevertheless sensitive to, and impacted by their facial expression. In this paper, we consider this body of research from a new perspective by examining the functions of unconscious perception revealed by these studies. A consideration of the literature from this perspective ...

Since their appearance, cartoons and their creators took interest in social and political facts and figures. Often a more direct witness than a text, cartoons were quickly transformed from their initial entertaining role, to a tool to attack oppressors and reveal social injustices. To easily communicate with their public, they had to share the same codes and experiences that lived their audienc...

Acknowledgements First and foremost I want to thank my advisor Prof. Andreas Hein. It has been an honour to be his Ph.D. student. He showed me, both consciously and unconsciously, how good engineering research is done. His contributions of time, ideas, and funding made my Ph.D. experience productive and stimulating. I also thank Prof. Dr. Steven van de Par for being my second advisor. His tips ...

Research has shown that high vs. low value rewards improve cognitive task performance independent of whether they are perceived consciously or unconsciously. However, efficient performance in response to high value rewards also depends on whether or not rewards are attainable. This raises the question of whether unconscious reward processing enables people to take into account such attainabilit...

27 28 The neural correlates of consciousness are typically sought by comparing the overall brain 29 responses to perceived and unperceived stimuli. However, this comparison may be 30 contaminated by non-specific attention, alerting, performance and reporting confounds. 31 Here, we pursue a novel approach, tracking the neuronal coding of consciously and 32 unconsciously perceived contents while ...

Previous research has demonstrated that for unacquainted dyads and groups interacting over video, feedback delay can interfere with the impression-formation process and increase cognitive load, in turn leading to incorrect interpersonal judgments. In this study, 35 dyads participated in two 10-min conversation periods over video monitors. In one period there was a 1-s delay in the audio/video s...
