Children retain implicitly learned phonological sequences better than adults: A longitudinal study
Smalle, Eleonore H M; Page, Michael; Duyck, Wouter; Edwards, Martin G.; Szmalec, Arnaud (2018-09-01)Whereas adults often rely on explicit memory, children appear to excel in implicit memory, which plays an important role in the acquisition of various cognitive skills, such as those involved in language. The current study ... -
The effect of processing load on loss of information from short-term memory
Norris, Dennis; Hall, Jane; Butterfield, Sally; Page, Michael (2019-02-07)We report an experiment in which we varied the nature of the articulatory suppression task being performed during a filled retention interval in serial recall. During the retention interval participants performed one of ... -
Learning nonwords: The Hebb repetition effect as a model of word learning
Norris, D.; Page, Michael; Hall, Jane (2018-01-03)Page and Norris [(2008). Is there a common mechanism underlying word-form learning and the Hebb repetition effect? Experimental data and a modelling framework. In A. Thorn & M. P. A. Page (Eds.), Interactions between ... -
Literacy improves short-term serial recall of spoken verbal but not visuospatial items - Evidence from illiterate and literate adults
Smalle, Eleonore H M; Szmalec, Arnaud; Bogaerts, Louisa; Page, Michael; Narang, Vaishna; Misra, Deepshikha; Araujo, Susana; Lohagun, Nishant; Khan, Ouroz; Singh, Anuradha; Mishra, Ramesh; Huettig, Falk (2019-04)It is widely accepted that specific memory processes, such as serial-order memory, are involved in written language development and predictive of reading and spelling abilities. The reverse question, namely whether ... -
Localist models are compatible with information measures, sparseness indices and complementary learning systems in the brain
Page, Michael (2017-03-16)In this paper, I express continued support for localist modelling in psychology and critically evaluate previous studies that have sought to weaken the localist case in favour of models with thoroughgoing distributed ... -
Phonological recoding under articulatory suppression.
Norris, Dennis; Butterfield, Sally; Page, Michael; Hall, Jane (2018-02-01)We report data from an experiment in which participants performed immediate serial recall of visually presented words with or without articulatory suppression, while also performing homophone or rhyme detection. The ... -
Production benefits recall of novel words with frequent, but not infrequent sound patterns
Lopez Assef, Belen; Strahm, Stephanie; Boyce, Keara; Page, Michael; Zamuner, Tania S. (2023-01-06)The production effect is influenced by various factors, including cognitive and linguistic related variables. Previous studies found that the production effect varies when stimuli have native versus non-native speech sounds, ... -
Reverse production effect: Children recognize novel words better when they are heard rather than produced
Zamuner, Tania S.; Strahm, Stephanie; Morin-Lessard, Elizabeth; Page, Michael (2017-11-15)This research investigates the effect of production on 4.5- to 6-year-old children’s recognition of newly learned words. In Experiment 1, children were taught four novel words in a produced or heard training condition ...
