Chapter 5 CSV Flashcards
Inhibition can occur at a neurological level by
;Lowering the activation level of neurons
The classic Stroop effect is an involuntary consequence of
;the inability to inhibit word reading
What can reduce the stroop effect
;Preexposure of irrelevant stimuli
What can reduce the flanker- compatibility effect
; Spatial separation and increasing the distinctiveness of the target
Flanker effects reflect
;difficulty in suppressing irrelevant information
Flankers presented in the neglected side of space cause interference which is showing that
;neglected information is processed even when observers are not aware of seeing it
Two components of inhibition of return
;Oculmotor and attentional component
The magnitude of negative priming decreases as
;the number of distractors increases
Negative priming increases as
;the difficulty of selecting the target increases
Negative priming can be affected by two kinds of priming
;Location and identity priming
Negative priming does not occur when
;selection is between two or more targets
Negative priming depends on and can be influenced by
;depends on the ease of selection and can be influenced by perceptual load
