These changes were more pronounced in participants showing more improvement across the label learning phase. Together, the findings support the notion that learning to label novel object categories affects neural competition though recurrent neural interactions in regions commonly associated with visual perception and selective attention. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).Visual working memory interacts with ongoing visual processing in a stimulus-specific manner, potentially through a common neural substrate supporting visual perception and working memory maintenance. The spatial specificity of this effect, however, remains unknown. The current study tested whether features in working memory influence perception in a spatially specific or global fashion. Across four experiments, subjects performed perceptual discrimination tasks on orientation or on contrast while concurrently holding an orientation in working memory. Experiments 1 and 2 revealed that memory content boosted the perceived contrast of the discrimination stimulus when the two matched in orientation, but only when the locations of the memorandum and the discriminandum also matched. In turn, feature-based influence on memory precision was also greater when locations matched. Experiments 3 and 4 demonstrated that the spatial specificity of this interaction was influenced by task demands. When encoding of location was discouraged in Experiment 3, memory interacted with perception in a global fashion, whereas when location was task-relevant in otherwise very similar Experiment 4, the feature-based enhancement was again modulated by location. These results suggest that context-binding demand is an important determinant of the spatial specificity of memory-perception interaction and highlight the flexible configurability of working memory representations.

Humans can benefit from learning the perceptual cues that predict the requirements of movement so that the choice of a movement goal and movement preparation can occur earlier. However, there remains uncertainty about how these perceptual cues are learned. Here we investigate the use and learning of these perceptual-motor associations. First, we ask if episodic memory for associations can support learning. In Experiment 1, participants first memorized associations between symbols and movement goals. When these symbols were subsequently presented as cues, reaching movements were prepared as efficiently as if the goals themselves were previewed, without the need for additional practice. Next, we ask whether statistical learning can be used to learn the associations. In Experiment 2, participants had to learn the associations during the movement task itself. This learning enabled efficient movement preparation, and the rate of improvement scaled with the number and complexity of associations. These findings suggest that movement preparation can be facilitated by perceptual cues via statistical learning and memory recall, highlighting a potential role for learning and memory systems not conventionally implicated in motor behavior.

Repetition of any of these features can then retrieve other integrated features, thus affecting following action (binding effects). The important role of feature bindings in action control is widely recognized in the literature by now (e.g., Frings et al., 2020; Henson et al., 2014). Recently, we found that bindings can also exist between individually planned and executed responses (Moeller & Frings, 2019b), which suggests that binding processes might play a role in hierarchical action representation (see Lashley, 1951). Yet, more specific information is necessary regarding the characteristics of response-response bindings to be able to integrate binding research with research on hierarchical action representation. FR 901228 Here, we analyzed durations of bindings between individual responses to decide whether response-response bindings hold for sufficiently long durations to support binding of actions also on a higher level in a hierarchy. We found evidence for response-response bindings lasting for relatively long times and no measurable decrease of the magnitudes for the binding effects over 2,000, 4,000, or 6,000 ms after response integration. The present findings support the suggestion that binding mechanisms can play a role in relating low-level microoperations to high-level macroprocedures in human action control.

Bennett, Jolynn Pek, Edward C. Suarez, Ilene Siegler and Redford B. Williams Jr. (Health Psychology, 2007[Nov], Vol 26[6], 675-683). In the article (http//dx.doi.org/10.1037/0278-6133.26.6.675), Edward C. Suarez was not originally included in the byline but has been added on the basis of his significant contributions to the concepts, design, data, and/or specimens analyzed in the article. The online version of this article has been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2007-16656-004.) Objective Recent research suggests that past exposure to discrimination may influence perceptions of, and physiological responses to, new challenges. The authors examined how race and trait levels of hostility and optimism interact with past exposure to discrimination to predict physiological reactivity and recovery during an anger recall task. Design A community sample of 165 normotensive Black and White adults participated in an anger recall task while having their cardiovascular function monitored. Main Outcome Measures Blood pressure and heart rate indicators of physiological reactivity and recovery. Results and Conclusion Participants had higher reactivity and slower recovery to the anger recall task when they had high past discrimination, low cynicism, or high optimism. The pattern of effects was similar for both racial groups, but Blacks had more acute reactivity and slower recovery than Whites. These results are consistent with the perspective of discrimination as a chronic stressor that is related to acute stress responses, particularly for Blacks.
