291.

Hemispheric encoding asymmetry is more apparent than real.

Previous neuroimaging studies have claimed a left hemisphere specialization for episodic "encoding" and a right hemisphere specialization for episodic "retrieval." Yet studies of split-brain patients indicate relatively minor memory impairment after ...

292.

Neural substrates of action event knowledge.

Human concepts can be roughly divided into entities (prototypically referred to in language by nouns) and events (prototypically referred to in language by verbs). While much work in cognitive neuroscience has investigated how the brain represents ...

293.

How does background information improve memory for text content?

In two experiments, we investigated whether reading background information benefits memory for text content by influencing the amount of content encoded or the organization of the encoded content. In Experiment 1, half of the participants read background ...

Quantitative assessment of second language learners fluency: comparisons between read and spontaneous speech.

This paper describes two experiments aimed at exploring the relationship between objective properties of speech and perceived fluency in read and spontaneous speech. The aim is to determine whether such quantitative measures can be used to develop ...

295.

Evaluation of context effects in sentence recognition.

It was investigated whether the model for context effects, developed earlier by Bronkhorst et al. [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 93, 499-509 (1993)], can be applied to results of sentence tests, used for the evaluation of speech recognition. Data for two German ...

296.

Emergent literacy skills and training time uniquely predict variability in responses to phonemic awareness training in disadvantaged kindergartners.

The factors that predicted variability in responses to phonemic awareness training were investigated in kindergartners who live in poverty. Treatment children (n=42) received both analytic and synthetic phonemic awareness computer-assisted instruction, ...

297.

A diffusion model account of response time and accuracy in a brightness discrimination task: fitting real data and failing to fit fake but plausible data.

A brightness discrimination experiment was performed to examine how subjects decide whether a patch of pixels is "bright" or "dark," and stimulus duration, brightness, and speed versus accuracy instructions were manipulated. The diffusion model ...

298.

Privileged access to action for objects relative to words.

We compared action (pour or twist?) and contextual/semantic (found in kitchen?) decisions made to pictures of objects, nonobjects, and words. Although there was no advantage for objects over words in contextual/semantic decisions, there was an advantage ...

299.

Comparison of review articles published in peer-reviewed and throwaway journals.

CONTEXT: To compare the quality, presentation, readability, and clinical relevance of review articles published in peer-reviewed and "throwaway" journals. METHODS: We reviewed articles that focused on the diagnosis or treatment of a medical condition ...
Paula A Rochon, Lisa A Bero, Ari M Bay, Jennifer L Gold, Julie M Dergal, Malcolm A Binns, David L Streiner, Jerry H Gurwitz (JAMA, 200206)

Paper or screen, mother tongue or English: which is better? A randomized trial.

CONTEXT: To compare family physicians ability to retain information when reading a review article on paper vs on screen, and in their mother tongue vs in English. METHODS: Randomized trial of 114 Scandinavian family physicians who read a review article ...
