Journal ArticleDOI
Conditions for Facelike Expertise With Objects: Becoming a Ziggerin Expert—but Which Type?
TL;DR: Attentive exposure to objects in a difficult training regimen is not sufficient to produce facelike expertise, and qualitatively different types of expertise with objects of a given geometry can arise depending on the type of training.
Journal ArticleDOI
Letter processing in the visual system: Different activation patterns for single letters and strings
TL;DR: The results suggest that reading experience fine-tunes visual representations at different levels of processing, and that the processing of nonpronounceable letter strings cannot be assumed to be equivalent to single-letter perception.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational approaches to the development of perceptual expertise
TL;DR: Arguably, hypotheses about the development of perceptual expertise should first be explored within the context of existing computational models of visual object understanding before considering the creation of highly modularized adaptations for particular domains of perceptual assistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does media multitasking always hurt? A positive correlation between multitasking and multisensory integration
Kelvin F. H. Lui,Alan C.-N. Wong +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that a higher degree of media multitasking was correlated with better multisensory integration, and the fact that heavy media multitaskers are not deficient in all kinds of cognitive tasks suggests thatMedia multitasking does not always hurt.
Journal ArticleDOI
An early electrophysiological response associated with expertise in letter perception
TL;DR: The results suggest that changes in relatively early visual processes underlie expert letter perception, and English readers and Chinese-English bilinguals showed an enhanced N170 for both Roman letters and Chinese characters relative to pseudofonts.
