Exploring the role of singing, semantics, and amusia screening in speech-in-noise perception in musicians and non-musicians
Cogn Process. 2023 Oct 18. doi: 10.1007/s10339-023-01165-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSentence repetition has been the focus of extensive psycholinguistic research. The notion that music training can bolster speech perception in adverse auditory conditions has been met with mixed results. In this work, we sought to gauge the effect of babble noise on immediate repetition of spoken and sung phrases of varying semantic content (expository, narrative, and anomalous), initially in 100 English-speaking monolinguals with and without music training. The two cohorts also completed some non-musical cognitive tests and the Montr...

Differential effects of intrinsic properties of natural scenes and interference mechanisms on recognition processes in long-term visual memory
Cogn Process. 2023 Oct 13. doi: 10.1007/s10339-023-01164-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHumans display remarkable long-term visual memory (LTVM) processes. Even though images may be intrinsically memorable, the fidelity of their visual representations, and consequently the likelihood of successfully retrieving them, hinges on their similarity when concurrently held in LTVM. In this debate, it is still unclear whether intrinsic features of images (perceptual and semantic) may be mediated by mechanisms of interference generated at encoding, or during retrieval, and how these factors impinge on recognition processes. In the...

The relationship between perfectionism and interpersonal sensitivity with self-compassion in university students: the mediation of repetitive negative thinking
Cogn Process. 2023 Oct 6. doi: 10.1007/s10339-023-01163-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSelf-compassion is a construct of positive psychology related to personality and cognitive factors. Perfectionism and interpersonal sensitivity are prevalent personality traits among university students and are associated with low self-compassion. Further research is required to comprehend how these mechanisms work in creating self-compassion. Consequently, the current study investigated the direct and indirect relationship between perfectionism and interpersonal sensitivity with self-compassion via repetitive negative thinking. To thi...

Visual images of disgusting creatures facilitated attentional orienting and delayed attentional disengagement
Cogn Process. 2023 Sep 26. doi: 10.1007/s10339-023-01162-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNumerous studies have suggested that threatening stimuli induce a spatial attention bias; however, only a few studies have investigated spatial attention biases for disgusting stimuli. Moreover, past studies generally reported that the spatial attention bias to disgusting images is not robustly in normal individuals. We hypothesized that this was due to the unfamiliar of the images, so we prepared the creature's images that were clearly categorized as disgusting and examined the effects of disgusting images on spatial attention bias. ...
