The contrasting impact of global and local object attributes on Kanizsa figure detection
(Psychonomic Society, 2007-11)
Studies on the involvement of object completions in search for illusory figures have so far reported equivocal results. We have addressed this issue by investigating at which level object attributes in Kanizsa figures ...
Extended visual simultaneity thresholds in patients with schizophrenia
(Oxford University Press, 2009-07)
Clinical observations suggest that the experience of time phenomenology is disturbed in schizophrenia, possibly originating disorders in dynamic cognitive functions such as language or motor planning. We examined the ...
The computation of shape orientation in search for Kanizsa figures
(Pion Ltd, 2009-01-29)
Previous studies of visual search for illusory figures have provided equivocal results, with efficient search for Kanizsa squares (eg Davis and Driver, 1994 Nature 371 291-293) contrasting with inefficient search for Kanizsa ...
The loci of oscillatory visual-object priming: a combined electroencephalographic and reaction-time study
(Elsevier, 2000-12)
The detection of reaction-times (RTs) to a target Kanizsa-type square (an illusory square defined by the collinear arrangement of 90° corner junctions) within a matrix of distractor junctions are expedited when the target ...
Effects of stimulus synchrony on mechanisms of perceptual organization
(Taylor & Francis, 2001-06-05)
When neurons adopt a synchronized, oscillatory response to stimulus Gestalten, the phase of those oscillations almost always varies relative to stimulus activity. This has been taken to indicate that form-coding mechanisms ...
Three years of intensive applied behavior analysis: A case study
(2008)
A 2 years and 10 months old child receiving an early intensive teaching program using the
Comprehensive Application of Behavior Analysis to Schooling (CABAS
®
) was taught using
evidence-based teaching strategies and ...
Risk factors for challenging behaviors among 157 children with autism spectrum disorder in Ireland
(Elsevier, 2008-11-25)
The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for the occurrence of challenging behavior along with the specific topographies of challenging behavior shown by a sample of children with autism spectrum disorder in ...
Relational frame theory and stimulus equivalence: Conceptual and procedural issues
(2004)
The article begins with a brief outline of the phenomenon of stimulus equivalence and its
relationship to human verbal behavior. Relational Frame Theory is then outlined as a
behavior-analytic account of both stimulus ...
Extinction of over-selected stimuli causes emergence of under-selected cues in higher-functioning children with autistics spectrum disorders
(Springer, 2008-09-12)
Two experiments examined whether over-selectivity is the product of a post-acquisition performance deficit, rather than an attention problem. In both experiments, children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder were presented ...
The effects of daily tact instruction on the emission of pure mands, tacts and conversational units in non-instructional settings by two preschool children with autism
(2009)
This study examined the effects of daily intensive tact instruction on the emission of verbal operants
in non-instructional settings by two preschool aged children with autism. A delayed multiple probe
design across ...
