Abstract. One interpretation of levels of processing effects (LOP) on priming in implicit tests of memory is in terms of deficits in lexical processing during shallow study tasks. In two experiments the extent of lexical processing engaged in during standard shallow encoding tasks was manipulated by placing the encoding question either before or after the target stimulus. Clear evidence was found in explicit memory tasks that placing the question after the target stimulus increased the depth of processing of words presented in shallow encoding tasks. In contrast, there was no evidence of such an effect on the priming observed in implicit memory tasks. The results suggest that the role of lexical processing in LOP effects on priming requires further specification.

Abstract Tsur and Gafni (T&G) claim that individual sounds can suggest “elementary percepts,” which, depending on the context, can evoke “specific emotions.” However, their proposal suffers from a lack of a theoretical framework and embedding of the theory in the broader scholarly literature. In terms of existing emotion theories and in line with the results of our previous neurocognitive studies on the topic, the proposed differentiation between these two levels of processing can be best represented by two affective dimensions of arousal and valence, respectively. In addition, our statistical measure for assessing the basic affective tone of texts suggests that the use of mere or rational frequencies of occurrence of all phonemes in a poem – instead of a focus on foregrounded and salient phonemes – may be a further reason for discrepancies of results of previous studies.

One potential problem with the development cascades approach is that it appears to be unconstrained. However, as discussed in this chapter, constraints in development can be broadly defined. Constraints have typically been conceived of as either innate and present at birth or acquired through experience. This chapter argues instead that developmental cascades are influenced profoundly by different kinds of constraints that do not have a single foundation. Constraints can be structural (e.g., originating from the structure of the child’s nervous system and body), a function of the physical or social environment, or the result of accumulated knowledge and experience. These constraints, it is argued, occur at multiple levels of processing and change over time, both of which contribute to developmental cascades and are the product of cascades.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
