Interaction of prior category knowledge and novel statistical patterns during visual search for real-world objects Open
Two aspects of real-world visual search are typically studied in parallel: category knowledge (e.g., searching for food) and visual patterns (e.g., predicting an upcoming street sign from prior street signs). Previous visual search studies…

Effects of Multisession Prefrontal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Long-term Memory and Working Memory in Older Adults Open
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive form of electrical brain stimulation popularly used to augment the effects of working memory (WM) training. Although success has been mixed, some studies report enhancements i…

Rapid category selectivity for animals versus man-made objects: An N2pc study Open
Visual recognition occurs rapidly at multiple categorization levels, including the superordinate level (e.g., animal), basic level (e.g., cat), or exemplar level (e.g., my cat). Visual search for animals is faster than for man-made objects…

Post‐training stimulation of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex impairs working memory training performance Open
Research investigating transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to enhance cognitive training augments both our understanding of its long‐term effects on cognitive plasticity as well as potential applications to strengthen cognitive …

Investigating N2pc effects with the use of Prior Knowledge and Novel Information in Visual Search Open
Previous research has shown that visual search efficiency is affected when using prior knowledge (e.g., looking for semantically-related objects; Wu et al., 2013, see also Telling et al., 2009) and novel information (e.g., using patterned …
