چکیده
Physiological responses in the Concealed Information Test (CIT) are known to depend on the depth of encoding critical items; CIT questions commonly refer to knowledge about critical items. It is unclear to what extent (1) different modes of item handling in a mock-crime, and (2) alternative questioning formats, e.g. asking about participants’ particular actions with the critical items, influence the physiological

Two experiments are reported in which postevent source of misinformation was manipulated within weapon-present and weapon-absent scenarios. Participants viewed slides depicting either a weapon or a newspaper event and then received either incomplete questioning or a narrative. Both postevent sources contained misleading information about a central and peripheral detail concerning either the wea...
متن کاملConstructions for measurement and comparison in Japanese and English
We have been investigating in recent years various constructions in Japanese and English in an onomasiological, or encoding, approach. That is, rather than questioning what an expression means (a decoding, or semasiological, approach), an onomasiological approach departs from a concept and asks how it can be expressed — radically distinct from organizing expressions by lexical items or phraseol...
متن کاملA cognitive procedure for representation change in verbal insight problems.
The aim of this study was to develop a novel cognitive procedure for operationalizing how the re-encoding and constraint relaxation, suggested by representational change theory (RCT) (Ohlsson, 1992, 2011), can effect representational change in verbal insight problem solving, thus circumventing the constraints imposed by past experience. Some participants were trained in using an evaluative cogn...
متن کاملInvolvement of the human medial temporal lobe in a visual discrimination task
Recent imaging and lesion studies suggest that the human medial temporal lobe (including the hippocampus and the perirhinal cortex), which is traditionally believed to be of central importance for memory processing, is also involved in processing and discrimination of complex visual stimuli. The aim of this study was to use functional magnetic resonance imaging in healthy subjects to further el...
متن کاملNew directions in document formatting: What is text?
What is text? Beyond, that is, material “tagged” as CDATA in the mark-up syntax jargon. Is it just undifferentiated strings of bytes? Or of “characters”? . . . But then, what is “a character”? These are the most basic of many important questions whose investigation is timely in light of the rapid global spread of the “XML paradigm” for documents and networked applications of all types. They lie...
