However, the influence of this temporal information on recall is modulated by strategic control processes. It is unclear if these processes operate primarily at encoding, by affecting learning, or at retrieval, by organizing memory search. To address this question, we independently manipulated encoding and retrieval strategies. In this experiment, undergraduate participants studied two word lists. Participants were initially told to focus on either temporal or semantic associations and ignore the other (initial strategy). These instructions were used for encoding and recall of List 1 and encoding of List 2. Before recalling List 2, half of the participants were instructed to switch strategies, while the other half kept the same strategy (test strategy). Temporal contiguity was observed in all conditions, even when participants were instructed to completely ignore temporal associations. The initial strategy had no effect on overall temporal or semantic organization. However, there was an effect of test strategy. A semantic test strategy greatly reduced temporal contiguity and enhanced semantic contiguity. Variations in temporal and semantic contiguity may be primarily due to differences in control processes operating at retrieval rather than encoding.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2413-2427"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146214070","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}

The present study extends the classic same-different paradigm to the domain of unfamiliar face matching and proposes a hierarchical serial self-terminating model. The model assumes that similarity between images of faces can be assessed at three representational levels-featural, physical, and nominal-and that observers compare faces sequentially from lower to higher levels, guided by instructional set (physical vs. nominal) and terminating once a discriminating feature is found. Two experiments tested these predictions with upright (Experiment 1) and inverted (Experiment 2) faces. Upright faces showed key diagnostic effects consistent with the model: the absence of a fast-same effect, the presence of the name-physical disparity effect, and costs of nominal relative to physical instructions. Signal-detection analyses confirmed that these reflected changes in sensitivity rather than bias. In contrast, inversion disrupted this pattern, attenuating or reversing effects. The results provide strong but qualified support for a hierarchical account of face matching and highlight the boundary conditions of this architecture.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2501-2520"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147284844","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}

While the way in which perceptual judgements are collected may affect the data, research rarely considers task design when investigating this topic. We therefore investigated how two frequently used methods of collecting multiple ratings can affect perceptual judgements, focusing on first impressions of faces. One participant group provided ratings of seven person characteristics (e.g. femininity, youthfulness, trustworthiness) blocked by characteristic, rating faces for one person characteristic at a time, across seven blocks. Another participant group completed one block in which they rated all seven characteristics simultaneously via a list of rating scales. The listed presentation format reduced task duration by 22%, but affected the perceptual ratings in several ways, pointing to reduced data quality, potentially as a result of satisficing behaviours. Specically, inter-rater agreement was lower for some person characteristics (youthfulness, femininity, and trustworthiness) in the listed format. Variance in ratings was also reduced for youthfulness, femininity, and dominance, with ratings clustering closer to the middle of the scale. Importantly, correlations between different person characteristics became universally positive in the listed format, indicating reduced independence of judgements. These findings highlight that while presenting multiple judgements at the same time may offer efficiency, this approach can introduce systematic biases and potentially reduce the reliability of perceptual data. We therefore suggest using a blocked presentation format and consider how these trade-offs would impact experiments looking at multiple perceptual judgements collected from the same participants.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2315-2327"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13498745/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145960100","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}

Individual differences, specifically variation in mental health symptoms, influence how this challenge is navigated, however, their impact in naturalistic settings remains unclear. Adopting a dynamical systems perspective, here we examined whether subclinical variation in symptoms associated with social anxiety disorder (SAD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) modulate individual movement dynamics during an everyday activity - walking on a university campus. Participants (n = 93) completed two walking trials, the second of which included an additional distractor task that they were either told to ignore or attend to. Gait dynamics were captured unobtrusively and assessed at both local (i.e., moment-to-moment) and global (i.e., time invariant) levels. The results revealed that subclinical variation symptoms of ASD were associated with less stable local dynamics, independent of task context. Further, exploratory analyses suggested that instructions to ignore the distractor were associated with changes to local dynamics for symptoms of SAD but global dynamics for symptoms of ASD. Taken together, these findings highlight how individual differences in psychological factors can shape the dynamics of everyday behaviour in context-dependent ways.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2365-2380"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13498737/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146126231","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 introduces the Affective Misattribution Procedure (AMP) as a novel and pedagogically relevant tool for exploring how neutral words can acquire emotional connotations through incidental exposure. By combining AMP with lexical concreteness judgments and socially embedded emotional cues, we investigated how learners integrate affective information into vocabulary representations. During the learning phase, participants viewed emotionally expressive images (happy, fearful, angry, and sad) followed by a concreteness judgment of neutral words. Emotional ratings before and after learning were compared to assess emotional acquisition. Results showed that concrete ones could acquire happy and fearful emotional valence. Social cues enhanced the acquisition of positive emotions in concrete words and negative emotions in abstract words. These findings offer both theoretical and methodological contributions to affective vocabulary learning. AMP not only enables implicit measurement of emotional meaning acquisition but also serves as a powerful design for emotion-integrated vocabulary instruction. This study supports the development of emotionally responsive language learning materials and highlights the potential of AMP as a bridge between language learning, emotional engagement, and pedagogical innovation.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2488-2500"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146259090","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}

Pylyshyn proposed that the mechanisms employed to track targets in MOT are also integral to coordinated actions. In support of this, previous research demonstrates that MOT and visually guided touch interfere with one another. However, in these early studies, reporting the MOT targets at the end of the trial involved touching them, making it unclear whether interference reflected competition for a shared limited-capacity item individuation mechanism or similarity in the motor responses required by the two tasks. To address this issue, we had participants touch items that changed colour during MOT with the index finger of their dominant hand and manipulated how participants later reported MOT targets at the end of the trial. We compared performance when participants reported MOT targets by touching them with the index finger of their dominant hand with that when they identified targets verbally or by typing them in. Two findings emerged. Firstly, the target report method had an effect on the size of the difference between single- and dual-task performance (general interference). Secondly, the target report method had no effect on differential interference (the size of the dual-task performance advantage when participants touched targets rather than distractors during MOT). The dissociation between the effects of target report on general and differential interference suggest these two types of interference reflect different processes. This research has implications for those who study the formation of action plans.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2279-2292"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13498734/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146114148","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}

There is substantial evidence to suggest that orthography promotes word learning. This study tests the hypothesis that orthography could mitigate the impact of noise on word learning by reducing the cognitive load and providing stable scaffolding for phonology. Word learning occurred in a self-directed online learning paradigm which reflects the increasingly common learning context for university students. Participants were 125 native English-speaking university students (mean age = 28.21, SD = 4.41; 65 female). They were taught 16 novel words online across three training blocks that included repetition and picture naming. Orthography was manipulated between participants (present vs. absent), and background noise was manipulated within participants (quiet vs. noise). Learning was assessed through picture naming and spelling tasks before and after training. Noise impacted learning of word meanings, but not word forms (phonology and spelling) while orthography facilitated the learning of word forms but not word meanings. Further, there was greater orthographic facilitation for word phonology retrieval for words learned in noise suggesting that orthography may reduce the negative effects of noise on some aspects of word learning. This study demonstrated orthographic facilitation of word learning in a self-directed online learning paradigm with implications for naturalistic learning. Further, it suggested the need for further examination of orthography as a tool to reduce the negative impact of noise on word learning.","PeriodicalId":20869,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"2259-2267"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13498738/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147609985","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}

Contrary to predictions, no significant behavioral differences emerged between conditions and observed effect sizes were substantially smaller than anticipated. These null findings suggest several possibilities: brief exposure to idealized models is insufficient to elicit immediate appearance-related behaviors; long-term exposure to social media has already been internalized, so additional short exposures produce a change smaller than expected; and/or our behavioral indices lacked sensitivity to detect small effects.
