Does letter rotation slow down orthographic processing in word recognition?
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2018)
Leading neural models of visual word recognition assume that letter rotation slows down the conversion of the visual input to a stable orthographic representation (e.g., local detectors combination model; Dehaene, Cohen, ...
A new index of semantic short-term memory: Development and validation of the conceptual span task in Spanish
(Public Library Science, 2018-12-27)
Mounting evidence from both cognitive and neuropsychological research points to the importance of conceptual and lexical-semantic contributors to short-term memory performance. Nonetheless, a standardized and well-controlled ...
The metabolic regimes of 356 rivers in the United States
(Nature Publishing, 2018-12-11)
