Article Synopsis
- - This study explores how visual masking and attentional load affect information processing in perception, using a combination of metacontrast and attentional load in experiments.
- - Behavioral results showed that attentional load significantly influenced masking strength, indicating that it impacts how we perceive stimuli based on their timing.
- - Neural analyses revealed different effects of masking and attentional load on early and late components of brain activity, suggesting that these influences vary throughout different stages of visual processing.
The relationship between handedness and valence: A gesture study.
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove)
December 2018
People with different hand preferences assign positive and negative emotions to different sides of their bodies and produce co-speech gestures with their dominant hand when the content is positive.
