When the target location was made more salient, significant parafoveal semantic priming occurred only at 80 ms (Experiment 3). Finally, with short primes only (20, 40, 60 ms) effects were not significant but numerically in the expected direction for 40 and 60 ms (Experiment 4).

After a look at some of the problems in earlier research, a psychophysics approach to investigate episodic memory functions is presented in which criterion-referenced manipulation of presentation time is used to estimate the effects of experimental manipulations and the effects of individual differences. Criterion'referenced presentation time (CRPT), defined as the time required to score at an a priori specified level of accuracy, is interpreted as a preliminary indicator of internal processing time. CRPTs are shown to be valid predictors of traditional measures of memory accuracy. Moreover, an extension of this psychophysics approach yields estimates of complete condition-specific timeaccuracy functions and of function-specific processing times (plus other parameters) for individual subjects. It is argued that both from a cognitive and a developmental perspective it is often advantageous to trade experimental equivalence in presentation times for functional equivalence in accuracy of performance; this applies not only to episodic memory processes.}, language = {en} } @misc{Kliegl2008, author = {Kliegl, Reinhold}, title = {Publication Statistics Show Collaboration, Not Competition}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-57198}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @misc{Kliegl1981, author = {Kliegl, Reinhold}, title = {Automated and interactive analysis of eye fixation data in reading}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-39861}, year = {1981}, abstract = {A package of five FORTRAN programs that provides for fast user-controlled analyses of reading eye fixations is described.

Younger and older laboratory-trained mnemonists participated in 2 experiments in which recall of permutations of a single word list across a single set of cues was held constant with individually adjusted presentation times.

These correlation estimates, however, emerged only with a reciprocal transformation of RT (i.e., -1/RT), justified on the basis of distributional analyses.
