This ability is thought to depend on the facilitation of tactile processing whenever an object enters the region surrounding the body where physical interaction is possible, referred to as 'peripersonal space'. Traditionally, these facilitation effects have been ascribed to the activity of the peripersonal neurons, which show maximal responses when tactile stimuli on the body co-occur with nearby visual or auditory stimuli, and would ultimately influence observable behavioral responses. While this neural account has shaped much of the field's interpretation, recent work has begun to question its sufficiency. Notably, whereas neural responses require spatial alignment of stimuli within reachable space, behavioral facilitation often occurs without such alignment and can extend well beyond the boundaries of reachable space. Building on emerging perspectives, we systematically unpacked additional processes, such as overt expectations, increased attention, and motor resonance, that may contribute to this behavioral facilitation. We argue that tactile facilitation driven by external stimuli, especially those approaching the body, involves a complex interplay of sensory, motor, and cognitive factors not exclusively restricted to peripersonal space nor directly associated with the activity of the peripersonal neurons. We conclude by discussing the conceptual implications and outlining directions for future research that move beyond a neuron-centric view toward a more integrative account of behavioral responses to multisensory stimuli within and outside peripersonal space.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149196277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A separate line of research has shown that image memorability, defined as the likelihood that an image will be remembered across observers, varies substantially across images. Previous research suggests that both boundary extension and image memorability heavily depend on image characteristics, yet the possibility that the two phenomena are related has not been directly tested. In the current study, we asked whether images that produce stronger boundary extension also tend to be more memorable. First, we compared boundary transformation scores from an existing dataset with memorability estimates generated by a deep-learning model. Results revealed that images showing greater boundary extension tended to have higher predicted memorability. Next, we conducted behavioral experiments measuring boundary memory for scene images and directly assessed recognition memory for the same images. Consistent with the first analysis, images associated with greater boundary extension showed higher memorability. Finally, analyses of experimentally manipulated stimuli showed that image manipulations known to increase boundary extension also increased predicted memorability. Taken together, these findings reveal a systematic relationship between boundary memory and memorability, suggesting that shared image properties may influence both the tendency to extend scene boundaries and the strength of memory encoding.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149184172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research shows that this effect is often attenuated in atypical display formats, including serial word presentation and backward text, especially in RTs. Some accounts interpret this pattern as a shift from parallel processing, in which multiple words are recognised simultaneously, towards more serial word recognition. However, atypical formats may also disrupt component processes supporting reading, including eye guidance, spatial attention, and parafoveal processing, thereby reducing the uptake of information from adjacent words. We extended this work to Chinese, a script that can be read in horizontal and vertical orientations while individual characters remain upright. Two hundred native Chinese readers made speeded grammaticality decisions to five-word sequences presented left-to-right, top-to-bottom, right-to-left, or bottom-to-top. Robust transposed-word effects occurred in both accuracy and RTs across all orientations. Effects were largest for conventional left-to-right text and smaller in all three atypical orientations. Thus, attenuation occurred even though all words remained simultaneously visible. It was therefore not confined to formats that physically enforce serial presentation. Although attenuation may reflect a shift towards more serial word recognition, it could also arise because difficulty processing atypically oriented text narrows spatial attention and reduces parafoveal information uptake. These component-process changes can occur under either parallel or serial accounts, making the findings compatible with both.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149184144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is unknown, however, whether differences in cue reliance reflect chronic or task-specific preferences of the individual. In a two-session study, we assessed how reliance on top-down (semantic) and bottom-up (acoustic-phonetic) cues differed across individuals in a cue-weighting task and how these patterns of cue weighting related to other independent measures of top-down and bottom-up cue use. We assessed semantic cue weighting by measuring semantic priming in a lexical decision task and we assessed the stability and gradience of listeners' acoustic-phonetic sensitivity using a visual analogue scale task on two phonetic contrasts. We found that individuals who relied more on bottom-up cues when listening to sentences also had more consistent response patterns in our phonetic task. This finding suggests that individuals who rely more on acoustic-phonetic information when listening to sentences may do so because they have more stable low-level representations. Additionally, these results provide external validity as to the types of individual differences measures we assess, particularly in more naturalistic, sentence-listening contexts.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13652776/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149149461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The seminal paper of Botvinick and Cohen in 1998 provided a vital psychophysical tool for studying the bodily self - the rubber hand illusion, in which one feels as if an external object becomes a part of one's body. Recent motor control views of ownership highlight the influence of agency, the sense that one is in control of one's movements. Technological advancements have facilitated more ecologically valid experimental paradigms, such as virtual versions of the rubber hand illusion, furthering our understanding of the mechanisms through which the brain generates agency and ownership sensations. Recent findings suggest that agency and ownership can interact while remaining dissociable, as one may experience agency over an object that is not embodied or ownership of an object that cannot be controlled. Understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying agency and ownership is critical for addressing the challenges of healthy aging. As sensory-motor precision declines across the lifespan, maintaining a coherent sense of body and control becomes essential for mobility, the successful adoption of assistive technologies, and overall cognitive resilience. This review synthesizes current findings on the agency-ownership interaction, discusses its neurobiological substrates, and explores its transformative potential for the design of \"self-inclusive\" prosthetics and brain-machine interfaces. We conclude by outlining a framework showing how optimization of these processes can support functional independence and psychological well-being in an aging population.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13652922/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149148971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study examined whether individual differences in neural synchronization modulate rhythmic priming effects during speech production and whether such effects depend on the rhythmic structure of the target utterance. Eighty-six native Mandarin speakers performed a speech production task involving two four-syllable rhythmic patterns as targets: the dominant [2+2] pattern (boundary after the second syllable) and the less common [1+3] pattern (boundary after the first syllable). Each target was preceded by a rhythmically congruent or incongruent pure-tone prime. Neural synchronization to the primes was quantified using cerebral-acoustic coherence (CACoh) between EEG activity and the temporal envelope of the auditory rhythms, and rhythmic priming was assessed using response latencies. K-means clustering of CACoh measures identified two participant groups characterized by relatively high and low levels of neural synchronization. Behavioral analyses revealed a significant Group × Target Type interaction. For the less common [1+3] pattern, low synchronizers exhibited reliable rhythmic priming, whereas high synchronizers showed little or no priming benefit. In contrast, priming effects for the dominant [2+2] pattern were modest and comparable across groups. Furthermore, higher theta-band CACoh was associated with smaller priming effects for [1+3] targets, indicating that stronger neural synchronization predicted reduced behavioral facilitation. These findings suggest that the influence of auditory rhythm on speech production depends jointly on individual neural synchronization capacity and the rhythmic structure of the planned utterance. The results provide new evidence that auditory-motor interactions in speech production are shaped by both listener-specific and utterance-specific factors.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149147727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose that retrieval cues are also organized into crowded and less crowded regions depending on distinctiveness, and that successful retrieval depends on the distributional match between the organization of targets and cues. As a real-world test case, we used the labels from the European Union's old (A+++, A++, A+, A, B, C, D) and new (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) energy-label scale as cues for memory retrieval of appliances' kilowatt-hour (kWh) values. In a preregistered experiment, participants rated seven refrigerators, while studying associated kWh values drawn from a positive, a negative, or a non-skewed distribution. Ratings confirmed that the labels of the old scale were psychologically skewed in mental space whereas the new scale had a more linear organization. After a brief filled delay, labels served as retrieval cues for kWh recall. Analyses of recall patterns, complemented by analyses of recall error, showed that the linear cue scale yielded recalled values that were closer to the correct kWh values when target values were non-skewed, but recalled values were overly linear when targets were skewed. Conversely, recall was most successful with the skewed cue scale when target values were positively skewed. These findings suggest that retrieval cues constrain reconstruction by imposing a distributional structure on target representations, and that recall is most successful when this structure aligns with the organization of encoded values in mental space.","PeriodicalId":20763,"journal":{"name":"Psychonomic Bulletin & Review","volume":"33 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13638717/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149113967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
