Some theoretical accounts explain these effects as the results of merely executing these responses (i.e., action execution), while others propose that these choice effects stem from interpreting these motor responses as valenced actions (i.e., action interpretation). To test the role of action execution versus action interpretation in both go/no-go and approach/avoidance responses, we employed a recently developed training that combined both dimensions orthogonally. Participants either pressed a key or not (i.e., go/no-go) to control a shopping cart on screen, to either collect or not collect certain food items (i.e., approach/avoidance). After the training, they repeatedly chose between food items (i.e., candies) for real consumption. When the instructions framed the responses as approach/avoidance actions, participants (N = 98) preferred approach items over avoidance items, but did not show preferences between go and no-go items in their choices. In contrast, when the instructions framed the responses as go/no-go actions, participants (N = 98) preferred go items over no-go items, but did not show preferences between approach and avoidance items. Despite making the same actual responses in both instruction groups, action interpretation determined whether go/no-go or approach/avoidance actions influenced food choice. Disambiguating the interpretation of motor responses as clearly valenced and meaningful actions may therefore be a fruitful way to maximize the effectiveness of response-based behavioral interventions.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11887470/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143587345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While extensively studied with verbal materials, limited research has addressed this effect using nonverbal materials such as pictures. Previous studies have used pleasantness judgments to induce deep encoding and judgments of straight lines to induce shallow encoding. However, these tasks confound level of processing with other factors like task relevance, self-reference, and attentional scope, offering alternative explanations for observed memory performance differences. This online study (N = 307) tested the levels of processing framework for pictures using novel encoding tasks to isolate the effect of semantic processing. The novel encoding tasks involved a size judgment. In the shallow encoding condition, participants compared the size of an object to the displayed size of a reference object presented on the screen. This is a perceptual comparison of two pictures. In the deep encoding condition, participants compared the size of an object to the real-life size of a reference object. This requires an understanding of the semantic meaning of the presented object. Our results showed better memory performance in deep encoding conditions (pleasantness judgment, real-life size judgment) than shallow encoding conditions (line judgment, displayed size judgment), supporting the levels of processing framework. Additionally, the new size judgment tasks minimized alternative explanatory factors, providing a clearer understanding of how semantic processing influences visual associative memory. These findings confirm the applicability of the levels of processing effect to nonverbal materials.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11887462/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143587411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faster and more accurate performance is typically produced when task-defined responses correspond to the location of such protruding parts, relative to when they do not correspond (i.e., object-based spatial correspondence effects). In two experiments we investigated the mechanisms that underlie the spatial coding of tool-object pairs when semantic and action alignment relationships were orthogonally combined. Centrally presented pictures of \"active\" tools (depicted as potentially performing their proper action) were paired, on one side, to a \"passive\" object (target of the tool action). We observed S-R correspondence effects that depended on the location of the protruding side of tool-object pairs, and not on the non-protruding side of the tool handle. Thus, results further supported the location coding account of the effect, against the affordance activation one. The effect was only produced when tool-object pairs belonged to the same semantic category or were correctly aligned for action, but with no further interplay. This was not consistent with the idea that action links were coded between tool-object pairs, and that the resulting action direction interacted with response spatial codes. Alternatively, we claimed that semantic relation and action alignment acted, independent from each other, as perceptual grouping criteria; allowing for the basic spatial coding of visual asymmetries to take place. This brought to speculation, at neurocognitive level, about independent processing along the ventral and ventro-dorsal streams.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11869823/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143543625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A repetition of any of these features results in a retrieval of the entire episodic trace, and can thus facilitate or interfere with future actions. Along with stimuli features, features of the response and any other irrelevant stimuli that are present, are also integrated into such traces and can influence future actions. Using word stimuli, Singh et al. (2018) observed that such so-called binding effects are larger for attended features relative to unattended features. This was the case even for features generally believed to be automatically processed, like valence. Since previous research has shown differences in the processing of word and picture stimuli, it is questionable whether the attentional modulations in the above study would extend to picture stimuli. In order to examine this question, Experiment 1 replicated the design of Singh et al. (2018) but used picture instead of word stimuli. In order to directly compare word and picture stimuli, the data of Singh et al (2018) were re-analysed together with the data of the present study. In Experiment 2, the alternative hypothesis, that the effects were driven by the encoding of stimulus contingencies, was tested. Taken together, the findings of the present study replicate those of Singh et al. (2018), indicating that even with picture stimuli, valence related binding effects are modulated by attention allocation.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11804182/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143383276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is debated whether probabilistic, implicit learning occurs not only at the item level, but also at the category level. Here, we investigated whether associative learning would occur between color and numerical categories, while participants performed a color task. In category-level experiments for each parity and magnitude, high-probability pairings of four numbers with one color were categorically consistent (e.g., the Arabic numerals 2,4,6, and 8 appeared in blue with a high probability, p = .9). Associative learning was measured as higher performance for high-probability vs. low-probability color/number pairings. For both parity and magnitude, performance was significantly better for high- vs. low-probability trials (parity: 3.1% more accurate; magnitude: 1.3% more accurate; 9 ms faster). Category-level learning was also evident in a subsequent color association report task with novel double-digit numbers (parity: 63% accuracy; magnitude: 55%). In control, item-level experiments, in which high-probability pairings were not categorically consistent (e.g., 2,3,6, and 7 appeared in blue with a high probability, p = .9), no significant differences between high- vs. low-probability trials were present. These results are in line with associative learning occurring at the category level, and, further, suggest automatic semantic processing of symbolic numerals in terms of parity and magnitude.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11784500/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143081159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this, the brain has evolved a system that uses warning stimuli to elicit phasic alertness, a state readying the brain for upcoming perception and action. Although a wealth of empirical evidence revealed how phasic alertness improves a wide range of perceptual and cognitive processing, it is still unclear by what cognitive mechanisms this is achieved. Here, we identify key problems that have to be solved for this to be possible and delineate concrete ways to achieve this. Specifically, we discover I) how to establish phasic alertness as a cognitive state of readiness for perception and action, II) how it can affect cognition online or offline, III) how it could be triggered internally without a warning, and IV) to what degrees it relied on bottom-up processing, or top-down temporal or stimulus expectations and the current task. As a result, the discussion provides us with a research program yielding the theoretical and empirical basis for mechanistic and computational models of phasic alertness and its neurophysiological underpinnings.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"19"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11759528/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143048045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The phenomenon remains extremely rare, and little is known about why these individuals can remember substantially more than the general population, without being continually flooded by past memories. According to the cognitive inhibition dependency hypothesis, inhibitory processes modulate general autobiographical memory by determining which memories will (and will not) enter one's consciousness. We hypothesised that these control processes are amplified in HSAM, protecting them from being overwhelmed by their abundance of memories. To explore if cognitive inhibition is exceptional in HSAM, a single case with HSAM (DT) and 20 matched controls completed a battery of 6 tasks assessing various aspects of inhibition (e.g., memory, prepotent motor responses). Participants also completed a screening for obsessive compulsive disorder and autism. Results indicate that DT's inhibitory functioning is comparable to that of the typical population, and thus not exceptional. We conclude that inhibition is unlikely to be the best explanation for extraordinary remembering and add to the growing body of literature that HSAM can occur in the absence of clinical symptomatology. Results are discussed in relation to future directions of HSAM research.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11760751/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143048043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the mechanisms that promote embodiment have been studied extensively in earlier work, the opposite phenomenon of, removing an embodied entity from the body representation (i.e., disembodiment) has received little attention yet. The current study addressed this phenomenon and drew inspiration from the partial reinforcement extinction effect in instrumental learning which suggests that behavior is more resistant to extinction when reinforcement is delivered irregularly. In analogy to this, we investigated whether experiencing occasional visuo-motor mismatches during the induction phase of the moving rubber hand illusion (intermittent condition) would result in slower disembodiment as compared to a regular induction phase where motor and visual signals always match (continuous condition). However, we did not find an effect of reinforcement schedule on disembodiment. Keeping a recently embodied entity in the body schema, therefore, requires constant updating through correlated perceptual and motor signals.","PeriodicalId":32728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11740722/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigated whether explicitly informing about the novelty of an incoming task would help participants prepare for different task configuration processes, such as pre-adjusting working memory gating functions. We hypothesized that if different task configuration processes can be prepared for, a pre-cue informing about the novelty of the upcoming task should lead to better task performance.
