This article reports three lexical decision experiments that aimed at further exploring the underlying processing mechanisms. In Experiments 1 and 2, we compared PHs like WAWK with unpronounceable nonwords like NRUG and pronounceable nonwords like FLIS, making sure that all stimuli (including real-word fillers) were carefully matched in length, bigram frequency, and number of orthographic neighbors. Matching stimuli in this way resulted in the real-word fillers to be of low lexical frequency (lower than for the PHs' base words). Experiment 1 employed a standard lexical decision task, whereas Experiment 2 used the two-alternative forced choice eye-tracking paradigm originally developed in Kunert and Scheepers (2014). Both experiments converged on showing a reversal of the classical PH effect: while unpronounceable strings like NRUG were correctly rejected relatively quickly, PHs like WAWK were indeed easier to reject than pronounceable nonwords like FLIS. Our final Experiment 3, by contrast, confirmed a \"classical\" PH effect when the same nonword stimuli were tested against high- rather than low-frequency words as fillers. We conclude that the direction of the PH effect strongly depends on the overall material context.

To make safe decisions, individuals assess their affective responses at various distances from potential dangers. This evaluation of anticipated feelings informs their decision-making process and subsequent behavior. Threat intensity is a key feature of this assessment. However, there is a lack of consensus on how threat-related anticipated negative affect decreases with distance as a function of threat intensity. Here, we propose the steeper gradient hypothesis: a faster decrease in negative anticipated affective responses with distance for more intense as compared to milder threats. To test this hypothesis, we conducted six experiments in which we examined the interaction effect between threat intensity and distance from the threat on various anticipated affective responses, by using different threats inductions (e.g., level of criminality; Experiments 1-4) and different spatial contexts (e.g., bird's eye views; Experiments 1 and 2). Our results consistently support the steeper gradient hypothesis, regardless of time perspectives (renting an apartment vs. temporarily occupying a spot) or samples (French vs. Americans; convenience vs. selection from a broader national sample). The present contribution, at the intersection of affective, social, and spatial cognition, advances our understanding of how one perceives and anticipates to respond to environmental threats.

Here we explore whether the capacity of visual imagery (as yet unknown) is similar to the known capacity limits of visual working memory (VWM) and visual short-term memory (VSTM). Experiment 1 explored capacity limits in imagination, VWM, and VSTM using a novel paradigm that, for the first time, provided estimates of capacity across these tasks. Imagination capacity was lower than that of VWM and VSTM. Experiments 2-4 eliminated alternative explanations of this capacity difference. Manipulating the time available to generate, update, and maintain an image (imagination task) or encode, update, and maintain an image (VWM task) did not influence performance in either task (Experiment 2). Manipulating the cue location and the size of the cued area had no specific influence on the imagination task (Experiment 3). Changing the test display (Experiment 4) showed that presenting all items at test (configural information) benefited VSTM performance, presenting a single item benefited VWM performance, and manipulating test display had no impact on imagination performance. In Experiment 5, increasing object complexity eliminated the difference between VSTM and imagination capacity; however, VWM capacity remained higher than that of imagery. For the first time, these experiments using analogous tasks demonstrate a difference in the observed capacities of VWM and imagery and provide the first measurable indication of the extent to which top-down (imagery), versus bottom-up activation of sensory systems (memory) supports the representation of perceptual stimuli.

Earlier boundary-change studies showed that subject/object case assignment in Russian can be extracted from a parafoveally presented but never directly fixated letter when the related preview is the most expected continuation (Stoops & Christianson, 2017, 2019). This study reversed the syntactic expectations for the identical and related previews (Cloze ratings: 94% grammatical identical object vs. 0% ungrammatical related subject). The related preview was read more slowly than the no-change preview in the later measures: go-past for the words n + 1 and n, according to both frequentist and Bayesian analyses. Additionally, the study clarifies the augmented allocation of attention hypothesis-skilled readers process parafoveally visible parts of a longer word faster than length-controlled upcoming word n + 1, yet the message-level contextual linguistic information affected the target words n and n + 1 similarly. The most intriguing finding is the delayed morpho-syntactico-semantic effect: even though the morphologically ungrammatical marking was parafoveally available, the syntactic fit only affected delayed processing, manifested as increased reading of previous text. More cross-linguistic work is needed to understand the role of higher level linguistic information beyond the predictability of individual lexical items on parafoveal processing during reading.

Interestingly, identifying two stimulus features in rapid succession integrates the corresponding event files, thereby enabling the storage of abstract relationships between stimuli or responses in those files (e.g., the interval between two musical notes). The nature, generality, and duration of such abstract relationships, however, remain unclear. To fill these gaps, I employed prime-probe tasks wherein only retrieving one or more relationships between two stimuli or two responses from a prime trial can produce a relational sequence effect in a subsequent probe trial. Simultaneously varying perceptual and categorical relationships between two stimuli and spatial relationships between two nonhomologous finger responses on different hands (Experiment 1), only the second and third types of relationships (Experiment 2), or only the third type (Experiment 3), produced progressively smaller relational sequence effects, some of which lasted 5 s (Experiment 4). I conclude that bindings store multiple relationships, that retrieving such relationships can influence actions involving different effectors, and that such relationships are stored long enough to influence hierarchical representations of event and action sequences.

The self-voice emerges as a crucial identity marker because of its inherent self-relevance, and previous work has demonstrated the perceptual and cognitive advantages of the self-voice over other voices. Yet, the extent to which humans prioritize their self-voice when they hear it is because it is both self-similar (\"That sounds like my voice\") and self-generated (\"I said that\") remains understudied. Here, we examined the impacts of self-similarity and self-generation on the SPE through three experiments. In each experiment, participants learned associations between three voices and three identities (self, friend, and other), and then performed a task requiring them to perceptually match the heard voices with visual labels (\"you,\" \"friend,\" and \"stranger\"). Experiment 1 revealed an augmented SPE when the self-associated voice in the task was the participant's own self-similar and self-generated voice. In Experiment 2, the SPE was diminished when the self-voice was associated with the \"stranger\" label-here, the other-associated, but self-similar and self-generated, voice was similarly prioritized to a self-associated but unfamiliar voice. In Experiment 3, we investigated the role of self-generation, by associating the self with a self-similar but machine-generated audio clone of the participant. The SPE was again enhanced. In sum, we demonstrate that listeners show flexibility in their mental representation of self, where multiple sources of self-related information in the voice can be jointly and severally prioritized, independently of self-generation. These findings have implications for the application of self-voice cloning within voice-mediated technologies.

This assumption predicts that a top-down search, such as the distinct color search (DCS; e.g., finding a target color among a set of distractors each of a unique color), is a serial search. We examined the search mode of DCS with the multiple-target search paradigm, which uses target redundancy gains to distinguish parallel from serial searches. The data suggest that DCS is normally a parallel search (Experiment 1) but becomes a serial search if its start time is delayed (Experiment 2). One plausible account to reconcile these results is that visual selection is serial by default but, right after the presentation of the search array, there is a short-lived bottom-up mechanism that may enable parallel visual selection. Our data further show that this short-lived mechanism has a capacity limit between 4 and 8 (Experiment 3). The present findings suggest that the current mainstream theories of visual search need to be modified and the effect of temporal factors on the search mode should be taken into account.

Proactive control and reward incentives exert beneficial effects on inhibitory control of single, isolated motor responses. However, it is unknown whether these factors can also enhance flexible switching of responses that are embedded within learned action sequences. In three experiments, I investigated the effects of proactive control and reward incentives on participants' ability to switch responses on a motor sequence learning task that elicits a high number of slips of action on sequence-change trials. Providing task-informative cues and reward incentives led to significant reductions in the number of action slips. However, slips of action continued to occur frequently despite the engagement of proactive control. Furthermore, there was no effect of cueing or reward incentives on the efficiency of response switching. These findings show that proactive control and reward incentives can enhance the participants' ability to make flexible adaptations to learned sequences of motor actions while also highlighting the limitations of such modulatory effects.
