Abstract:
Cognitive scientists have long endeavored to clarify the process by which human beings classify or categorize information. The study discussed here attempts to uncover the underlying nature of the categorization process in children and adults by examining access to information at retrieval. Previous work has suggested that two separate memory systems, memory for the category itself and memory for the specific instance of the category, may exist. This study attempts to further investigate the nature of these two memory systems, their relationship to each other, and their contribution to the pro

Abstract:
Interleaved effects are widely documented. Research demonstrates that interleaved presentation orders, as opposed to blocked orders typically benefit inductive category learning. What drives interleaved effects is less straightforward. Interleaved presentations provide both the opportunity to compare and contrast between different types of category exemplars, which are temporally juxtaposed, and the opportunity to space study of the same type of category exemplars, which are temporally separated within the presentation span. Accordingly, interleaved effects might be driven by enhanced discrimi

Abstract:
Previous neurophysiological and behavioural studies have shown that attention can be guided by the contents of working memory (WM), and that such guidance can be involuntary even when it is detrimental to the task at hand. In three experiments, this thesis investigated whether the guidance of visual attention from WM could be generalized from a specific stimulus or a task to a category. Experiment 1 tested whether maintaining a set of stimuli of a specific category in WM would influence participants' deployment of visual attention to favour other stimuli that belonged to the same category.

Abstract:
Psychology<br>Ph.D.<br>The ability to remember spatial locations is critical to human functioning, both in an evolutionary and an everyday sense. And yet, spatial memories and judgments often show systematic errors. Explanations for such errors have ranged from assumptions that memories are nonmetric, to the use of imperfect inferences, to the optimal combination of multiple sources of information. More recently, bias has been explained through the Category Adjustment Model - a Bayesian model in which fine-grained and categorical information are optimally combined (Huttenlocher, Hedges, & Dunc

Abstract:
The present study investigated the differential effects of test-induced priming on false memories evoked by Converging Associates Procedure (DRM lists) and Category Associates Procedures (Category lists). The experimental settings involved the manipulation of test order of the critical items, in relation to the list items from their corresponding lists. The significance of the study comes from the fact that it directly compares the false memories elicited by Converging Associates Procedure and Category Associates Procedures within the same experimental settings.

Abstract:
<p>Semantic memory is part of the long-term memory system, and there are several theories concerning this type of memory. Some of these will be described in this essay. There are also several types of neuropsychological semantic memory deficits. For example, test results have shown that patients tend to have more difficulties naming living than nonliving things, and one probable explanation is that living things are more dependent on sensory than on functional features. Description of concrete concepts is a new test of semantic memory, in which cueing is used, both to capture the maximum perfo

Patients with category-specific agnosia (CSA) of the biological type have a disproportionate deficit in recognizing objects from biological categories. Bukach et al. (in press) have shown that a similar pattern of category specificity (CS) arises in normal subjects due to the interaction of structural and conceptual knowledge in the episodic retrieval of object knowledge. The current set of studies extends these findings in two ways: The first series of 4 experiments uses the newly learned attribute recall developed by Bukach et al. to investigate CS in the verbal modality.

Next participants viewed attachment-relevant and non-relevant stimuli presented in either a word list or vignette format. Afterwards they completed a brief distracter task followed by a category cued-recall memory test. Study 2 participants also reported
