Assessing single- and dual-process accounts of recognition memory using hierarchical Bayesian models
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
to assess the veracity of previous claims. The results of this hierarchical modeling suggest that 1) ROC asymmetry, which has served as strong evidence for particular one and two-process model, is not an artifact of averaging, 2) The Yonelinas two...
A hierarchical Bayesian analysis of multiple order constraints in behavioral science

[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Psychology is an empirical science, and oftentimes the main target of interest is an empirical effect. For example, we may be interested in human ...
Item response models for the measurement of thresholds

At least since Fechner (1860) described examples of human sensory thresholds, the concept of a threshold has been foundational in psychology. Thresholds exist when a sensation can be so weak that it does not lead to ...
Resolving the conflict between the discrete-slots and distributed-resources models of working-memory capacity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
It is generally accepted that Working Memory is limited in capacity. However, there has been substantial debate over whether this limit in capacity is best described as a finite limit on the number of items that can be ...
An assessment of inhibition in the Simon task
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Different from some other context tasks, the Simon task is featured with a congruency effect decreasing with increasing RT. Ridderinkhof proposed a two route model to account for the negative slope of this congruency effect ...
