A cross cultural comparison of where drivers choose to look when viewing driving scenes
(The University of Nottingham, 2021-08-02)
The study involved a cross cultural comparison in which UK and Malaysian drivers were asked to indicate where they would look across a series of different images of roads. Regions selected in each image were classified as ...
Temporal and spatial contiguity are necessary for competition between events
(The University of Nottingham, 2021-04-01)
Over the last 50 years, cue competition phenomena have shaped theoretical developments in animal and human learning. However, recent failures to obtain the well-known blocking effect in standard conditioning procedures, ...
From competition to facilitation: temporal contiguity determines interactions between events in human Action-Outcome performance
(The University of Nottingham, 2021-09-17)
Three experiments (n=81, n=81, n=82 respectively) explored how temporal contiguity influences Action-Outcome learning, assessing whether an intervening signal competed, facilitated, or had no effect on performance and ...
Spatial contiguity determines overshadowing between global-shape representations and stimulus-response associations in human navigation
(The University of Nottingham, 2022-01-25)
Recent failures to observe cue competition in different preparations, together with the long-standing debate about competition phenomena in the spatial learning literature, have casted doubts on their generality. A recent ...
Social overshadowing: revisiting cue-competition in social interactions
(University of Nottingham, 2022-03-14)
Understanding how we use the information surrounding us to extract patterns and guide our behavior has been of major interest in psychological research, in both social and nonsocial contexts. On the one hand, associative ...
Contiguity and overshadowing interactions in the rapid-streaming procedure
(The University of Nottingham, 2022-04-29)
Previous research has reported that temporal contiguity is a critical factor determining the direction of cue-interactions: strong contiguity leads to competition (e.g., overshadowing), but weak contiguity leads to ...
Further evidence for the role of temporal contiguity as a determinant of overshadowing
(The University of Nottingham, 2022-09-16)
Three experiments explored whether weakening temporal contiguity between auditory cues and an outcome attenuated cue-competition in an avoidance learning task with human participants. Overall, with strong temporal contiguity ...
Category relevance attenuates overshadowing in human predictive learning
(The University of Nottingham, 2022-11-25)
In situations in which multiple predictors anticipate the presence or absence of an outcome, cues compete to anticipate the outcome, resulting in a loss of associative strength compared to control conditions without ...
Readability, expressiveness and social favourability judgments for targets with varying levels of autistic traits
(The University of Nottingham, 2023-07-11)
This study examined the impact of autistic traits of targets on various aspects of perceivers perceptions. One group of perceivers made judgments that involved reading the targets' behaviour (readability); one group made ...
The effects of goal–landmark distance on overshadowing: a replication in humans (Homo sapiens) of Goodyear and Kamil (2004)
(The University of Nottingham, 2023-01-06)
Goodyear & Kamil (2004) assessed the ability of Clark’s nutcrackers to find buried food based on a cross-shaped array of landmarks at different distances from the goal. Their findings suggested that close landmarks ...
