STUTTERING AS AN ATTENTIONAL PHENOMENON
"... In a dual-task paradigm in which subjects performed a tracking task in combination with speech tasks of varying complexity, we tested two hypotheses concerning stuttering involving the concept of attention. The “overload ” hypothesis assumes that stuttering is related to insufficient automatization ..."

On the control of automatic processes: A parallel distributed processing account of the Stroop effect
- Psychological Review
, 1990
"... Traditional views of automaticity are in need of revision. For example, automaticity otten has been treated as an all-or-none phenomenon, and traditional ~es have held that automatic processes are independent of attention. Yet recent empirical data suggest that automatic processes are continu-ous, a ..."

Halfa century of research on the Stroop effect: An integrative review
- PsychologicalBulletin
, 1991
"... The literature on interference in the Stroop Color-Word Task, covering over 50 years and some 400 studies, is organized and reviewed. In so doing, a set ofl 8 reliable empirical findings is isolated that must be captured by any successful theory of the Stroop effect. Existing theoretical positions a ..."

? Perhaps the task is seen as tapping into the primitive operations of cognition, offering clues to the fundamental process of attention. Perhaps the robustness of the phenomenon provides a special challenge to decipher. Together these are powerful attractions
The Construct of Resilience: A Critical Evaluation and Guidelines for Future Work.
- Child Development,
, 2000
"... This paper presents a critical appraisal of resilience, a construct connoting the maintenance of positive adaptation by individuals despite experiences of significant adversity. As empirical research on resilience has burgeoned in recent years, criticisms have been levied at work in this area. Thes ..."

. These critiques have generally focused on ambiguities in definitions and central terminology; heterogeneity in risks experienced and competence achieved by individuals viewed as resilient; instability of the phenomenon of resilience; and concerns regarding the usefulness of resilience as a theoretical construct
Confirmation Bias: A Ubiquitous Phenomenon in Many Guises
- Review of General Psychology
, 1998
"... Confirmation bias, as the term is typically used in the psychological literature, connotes the seeking or interpreting of evidence in ways that are partial to existing beliefs, expectations, or a hypothesis in hand. The author reviews evidence of such a bias in a variety of guises and gives examples ..."

the best known and most widely accepted notion of inferential error to come out of the literature on human reasoning. (Evans, 1989, p. 41) If one were to attempt to identify a single problematic aspect of human reasoning that deserves attention above all others, the confirmation bias would have to be among
Networks, Dynamics, and the Small-World Phenomenon
- American Journal of Sociology
, 1999
"... The small-world phenomenon formalized in this article as the coincidence of high local clustering and short global separation, is shown to be a general feature of sparse, decentralized networks that are neither completely ordered nor completely random. Networks of this kind have received little atte ..."

Human Factors and Ergonomic Society, 11-15. Santa Monica, CA: HFES. PERFORMANCE BENEFITS WITH SCENE-LINKED HUD SYMBOLOGY: AN ATTENTIONAL PHENOMENON?
"... Previous research has shown that in a simulated flight task, navigating a path defined by ground markers while maintaining a target altitude is more accurate when an altitude indicator appears in a virtual "scene-linked " format (projected symbology moving as if it were part of the out-the ..."

-the-window environment) compared to the fixed-location, superimposed format found on present-day HUDs (Foyle, McCann & Shelden, 1995). One explanation of the scene-linked performance advantage is that attention can be divided between scene-linked symbology and the outsid world more efficiently than between standard
Abrupt visual onsets and selective attention: Voluntary versus automatic allocation
- Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance
, 1990
"... The hypothesis that abrupt visual onsets capture attention automatically, as suggested by Yantis and Jonides (1984) was tested in four experiments. A centrally located cue directed attention to one of several stimulus positions in preparation for the identification of a target letter embedded in an ..."

of the intentionality criterion for automaticity is discussed. Introspective and empirical evidence both suggest that the abrupt appearance of an object in the visual field "draws attention. " A plausible account of this phenomenon is that there exists a mechanism that is tuned to abrupt onsets and that one
Neurophysiology of cognition
, 1970
"... What we cognite seems to us self-evident. In the very process of doing what I am doing, cognition appears to me as my immediate experience. I perform an act of knowledge when I act in a manner that I describe as a manipulation or handling of the world in which I exist. The cogito ergo sum of Descart ..."

attention necessarily turns to questions related to the use of cognition. If we do otherwise and consider cognition as a phenomenon that results from, or is produced by, our biological being, then cognition can be made an empirical problem and we can turn our attention to the question, “What kind
The concept of power
- Behavioral Science
, 1957
"... What is “power”? Most people have an intuitive notion of what it means. But scientists have not yet formulated a statement of the concept of power that is rigorous enough to be of use in the sys-tematic study of this important social phenomenon. Power is here defined in terms of a relation between p ..."
