Mindful maths: reducing the impact of stereotype threat through a mindfulness exerciseUlrich W Weger
Centre for Research on Social Climate, University of Kent, Canterbury CT27NP, United Kingdom
Conscious Cogn 21:471-5. 2012..Our results show that performance decrements that typically occur under stereotype threat can indeed be reversed when the individual engages in a brief (5 min) mindfulness task. The theoretical implications of our findings are discussed...
Time flies like an arrow: space-time compatibility effects suggest the use of a mental timelineUlrich W Weger
University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Psychon Bull Rev 15:426-30. 2008....
Long-range regressions to previously read words are guided by spatial and verbal memoryUlrich W Weger
Binghamton University, Binghamton, New York, USA
Mem Cognit 35:1293-306. 2007..The results suggest that spatial and verbal memory guide regressions in reading. Initial regressions are primarily guided by fixation-centered spatial memory, and corrective regressions are primarily guided by linguistic knowledge...- Things are sounding up: affective influences on auditory tone perceptionUlrich W Weger
State University of New York, Binghamton, New York, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 14:517-21. 2007..In addition to clarifying the nature of these cross-modal associations, the present results further the idea that affective evaluations exert large effects on perceptual judgments related to verticality... - Testing whether gaze cues and arrow cues produce reflexive or volitional shifts of attentionSara A Stevens
University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Psychon Bull Rev 15:1148-53. 2008..For both cue types, compatible cues were found to facilitate response speed but not perceptual accuracy, indicating that both gaze and arrow cues generate reflexive shifts in attention... - Objects do not aid inhibition of return in crossing the vertical meridianUlrich W Weger
Department of Psychology, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada
Psychol Res 72:176-82. 2008..Both experiments revealed robust inhibition in the cued but not the uncued hemifield, further demonstrating the hemifield-based spreading of IOR... - Memory for word location during reading: eye movements to previously read words are spatially selective but not preciseAlbrecht W Inhoff
Department of Psychology, State University of New York, Binghamton, New York 13902, USA
Mem Cognit 33:447-61. 2005..In the absence of accurate spatial memories, readers reached previously read target words in two distinct steps--one that moved the eyes in the general vicinity of the target, and one that homed in on it... - Semantic inhibition of return is the exception rather than the ruleUlrich W Weger
State University of New York, Binghamton, USA
Percept Psychophys 68:244-53. 2006..The results support an episodic account of semantic IOR, according to which inhibitory effects accumulate with massive repetition of homogeneous items... - Attention and eye movements in reading: inhibition of return predicts the size of regressive saccadesUlrich W Weger
State University of New York at Binghamton, NY, USA
Psychol Sci 17:187-91. 2006..Multiple mechanisms of spatial attention, including IOR, bias eye movements toward upcoming words in the text during reading... - The impact of letter detection on eye movement patterns during reading: Reconsidering lexical analysis in connected text as a function of taskSeth N Greenberg
Department of Psychology, Carleton College, Northfield, MN 55057, USA
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) 59:987-95. 2006....
