If they were, they should affect the perception of target objects and reference objects used to express perceptual judgments, and thus cancel each other out. This reasoning presumes that non-visual manipulations impact target objects and comparison objects equally. In the present study we show that equalizing a body-related manipulation between target objects and reference objects essentially abolishes the impact of that manipulation so as it should do when that manipulation actually altered perception. Moreover, the manipulation has an impact on judgements when applied to only the target object but not to the reference object, and that impact reverses when only applied to the reference object but not to the target object. A perceptual explanation predicts this reversal, whereas explanations in terms of post-perceptual response biases or demand effects do not. Altogether these results suggest that body-related influences on perception cannot as a whole be attributed to extra-perceptual factors.}, language = {en} } @article{GrevingRichter2018, author = {Greving, Sven and Richter, Tobias}, title = {Examining the testing effect in university teaching: retrievability and question format matter}, series = {Frontiers in Psychology}, volume = {9}, journal = {Frontiers in Psychology}, issn = {1664-1078}, doi = {10.3389/fpsyg.2018.02412}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-190802}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Review of learned material is crucial for the learning process. One approach that promises to increase the effectiveness of reviewing during learning is to answer questions about the learning content rather than restudying the material (testing effect). This effect is well established in lab experiments. However, existing research in educational contexts has often combined testing with additional didactical measures that hampers the interpretation of testing effects. We aimed to examine the testing effect in its pure form by implementing a minimal intervention design in a university lecture (N = 92). The last 10 min of each lecture session were used for reviewing the lecture content by either answering short-answer questions, multiple-choice questions, or reading summarizing statements about core lecture content. Three unannounced criterial tests measured the retention of learning content at different times (1, 12, and 23 weeks after the last lecture). A positive testing effect emerged for short-answer questions that targeted information that participants could retrieve from memory. This effect was independent of the time of test. The results indicated no testing effect for multiple-choice testing. These results suggest that short-answer testing but not multiple-choice testing may benefit learning in higher education contexts.}, language = {en} } @article{PfisterSchwarzJanczyketal.2013, author = {Pfister, Roland and Schwarz, Katharina A. and Janczyk, Markus and Dale, Rick and Freeman, Jonathan B.}, title = {Good things peak in pairs: a note on the bimodality coefficient}, series = {Frontiers in Psychology}, volume = {4}, journal = {Frontiers in Psychology}, issn = {1664-1078}, doi = {10.3389/fpsyg.2013.00700}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-190413}, year = {2013}, abstract = {A commentary on Assessing bimodality to detect the presence of a dual cognitive process by Freeman, J.

Direct comparisons between child and adult populations are needed to determine developmental risk markers of fear and anxiety. We compared 267 children and 285 adults in a differential fear conditioning paradigm and generalization test. Skin conductance responses (SCR) and ratings of valence and arousal were obtained to indicate fear learning. Both groups displayed robust and similar differential conditioning on subjective and physiological levels. However, children showed heightened fear generalization compared to adults as indexed by higher arousal ratings and SCR to the generalization stimuli. Results indicate overgeneralization of conditioned fear as a developmental correlate of fear learning. The developmental change from a shallow to a steeper generalization gradient is likely related to the maturation of brain structures that modulate efficient discrimination between danger and (ambiguous) safety cues.}, language = {en} } @article{LuleKueblerLudolph2019, author = {Lul{\´e}, Doroth{\´e}e and K{\"u}bler, Andrea and Ludolph, Albert C.}, title = {Ethical principles in patient-centered medical care to support quality of life in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis}, series = {Frontiers in Neurology}, volume = {10}, journal = {Frontiers in Neurology}, issn = {1664-2295}, doi = {10.3389/fneur.2019.00259}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-196239}, year = {2019}, abstract = {It is one of the primary goals of medical care to secure good quality of life (QoL) while prolonging survival. This is a major challenge in severe medical conditions with a prognosis such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Further, the definition of QoL and the question whether survival in this severe condition is compatible with a good QoL is a matter of subjective and culture-specific debate. Some people without neurodegenerative conditions believe that physical decline is incompatible with satisfactory QoL. Current data provide extensive evidence that psychosocial adaptation in ALS is possible, indicated by a satisfactory QoL. Thus, there is no fatalistic link of loss of QoL when physical health declines. There are intrinsic and extrinsic factors that have been shown to successfully facilitate and secure QoL in ALS which will be reviewed in the following article following the four ethical principles (1) Beneficence, (2) Non-maleficence, (3) Autonomy and (4) Justice, which are regarded as key elements of patient centered medical care according to Beauchamp and Childress.

Hierdurch wird der Fahrer in der Lage sein, sich permanent von der Fahraufgabe abzuwenden und fahrfremden T{\"a}tigkeiten nachzugehen. Allerdings muss er immer noch als R{\"u}ckfallebene zur Verf{\"u}gung stehen, um im Fall von Systemgrenzen oder -fehlern (siehe Gold, Naujoks, Radlmayr, Bellem \& Jarosch, 2017), die Fahrzeugkontrolle zu {\"u}bernehmen. Das {\"U}bernahmeerfordernis wird dem Fahrer durch die Ausgabe einer {\"U}bernameaufforderung vermittelt. Die {\"U}bernahme der manuellen Fahrzeugf{\"u}hrung aus dem hochautomatisierten Fahren stellt aus psychologischer Sicht einen Aufgabenwechsel dar. Bei der Untersuchung von Aufgabenwechseln im Bereich der kognitiven und angewandten Psychologie zeigte sich vielfach, dass Aufgabenwechsel mit verl{\"a}ngerten Reaktionszeiten und erh{\"o}hten Fehlerraten assoziiert sind. F{\"u}r den Anwendungsfall des automatisierten Fahrens liegen ebenfalls eine Reihe empirischer Studien vor, die darauf hinweisen, dass der Wechsel zum manuellen Fahren mit einer Verschlechterung der Fahrleistung gegen{\"u}ber dem manuellen Fahren verbunden ist. Da Erkenntnisse vorliegen, dass eine Vorbereitung auf den Aufgabenwechsel die zu erwartenden Kosten verringern kann, ist das Ziel dieser Arbeit die Konzeption und empirische Evaluation einer Mensch-Maschine-Schnittstelle, die Nutzer hochautomatisierter Fahrzeuge durch fr{\"u}hzeitige Vorinformationen {\"u}ber Systemgrenzen auf die Kontroll{\"u}bernahme vorbereitet. Drei Experimente im Fahrsimulator mit Bewegungssystem betrachteten jeweils unterschiedliche Aspekte fr{\"u}hzeitiger Vorinformationen {\"u}ber bevorstehende {\"U}bernahmen. Das erste Experiment untersuchte, ob Fahrer {\"u}berhaupt von fr{\"u}hzeitigen Situationsank{\"u}ndigungen, beispielsweise im Sinne einer verbesserten {\"U}bernahmeleistung, profitieren. Das zweite Experiment befasste sich mit der Frage, wie solche Ank{\"u}ndigungen zeitlich und inhaltlich zu gestalten sind (d. h. wann sie pr{\"a}sentiert werden und welche Informationen sie enthalten sollten), und welchen Einfluss deren Gestaltung auf die Aufgabenbearbeitung (insbesondere deren Unterbrechung und sp{\"a}tere Wiederaufnahme) w{\"a}hrend der automatisierten Fahrt hat. Um herauszufinden, wie ein Anzeigekonzept zur l{\"a}ngerfristigen Planung von fahrfremden T{\"a}tigkeiten w{\"a}hrend des automatisierten Fahrens beitragen k{\"o}nnte, fand im dritten Experiment ein Vergleich von Situationsank{\"u}ndigungen, die vor dem Erreichen einer {\"U}bernahmesituation ausgegeben wurden, mit kontinuierlich pr{\"a}sentierten Informationen {\"u}ber die verbleibende Distanz zur n{\"a}chsten Systemgrenze statt. In allen Studien wurde neben den Auswirkungen fr{\"u}hzeitiger Vorinformationen auf die {\"U}bernahmeleistung und Bearbeitung von fahrfremden T{\"a}tigkeiten auch untersucht, welche Auswirkungen ein erweitertes {\"U}bernahmekonzept auf die Fahrerreaktion in Grenz- und Fehlerf{\"a}llen, in denen Vorinformationen entweder nicht oder fehlerhaft angezeigt wurden, hat. F{\"u}r die Gestaltung zuk{\"u}nftiger {\"U}bernahmekonzepte f{\"u}r hochautomatisierte Fahrzeuge kann basierend auf den Ergebnissen empfohlen werden, fr{\"u}hzeitige Anzeigen von Systemgrenzen zur Erm{\"o}glichung eines sicheren und komfortablen Wechsels zwischen dem manuellen und dem automatisierten Fahren in die Mensch-Maschine-Schnittstelle zu integrieren. Basierend auf den Ergebnissen dieser Arbeit liegt der empfohlene Zeitpunkt f{\"u}r diskrete Ank{\"u}ndigungen bei einer Reisegeschwindigkeit von 120 km/h bei etwa 1000 Meter (d. h. ca. 30 Sekunden) vor der Ausgabe der {\"U}bernahmeaufforderung. Zudem wird empfohlen zur Absch{\"a}tzung der verbleibenden Zeit im automatisierten Modus eine Anzeige der Entfernung zur n{\"a}chsten Systemgrenze in das Konzept zu integrieren, die dem Fahrer eine l{\"a}ngerfristige Aufgabenplanung erm{\"o}glicht.

The primary aim of this study was to examine attentional mechanisms relevant for perceiving social cues by means of abnormalities in scanning of facial features in patients with social phobia. In two novel experimental paradigms, patients with social phobia and healthy controls matched on age, gender and education were compared regarding their gazing behavior towards facial cues. The first experiment was an emotion classification paradigm which allowed for differentiating reflexive attentional shifts from sustained attention towards diagnostically relevant facial features. In the second experiment, attentional orienting by gaze direction was assessed in a gaze-cueing paradigm in which non-predictive gaze cues shifted attention towards or away from subsequently presented targets. We found that patients as compared to controls reflexively oriented their attention more frequently towards the eyes of emotional faces in the emotion classification paradigm. This initial hypervigilance for the eye region was observed at very early attentional stages when faces were presented for 150 ms, and persisted when facial stimuli were shown for 3 s. Moreover, a delayed attentional orienting into the direction of eye gaze was observed in individuals with social phobia suggesting a differential time course of eye gaze processing in patients and controls. Our findings suggest that basic mechanisms of early attentional exploration of social cues are biased in social phobia and might contribute to the development and maintenance of the disorder.}, language = {en} }
