This article reviews the effects of alcohol on stress responses among social drinkers.
Despite considerable research, the relationship between alcohol and stress has remained …

Recent evidence from neuropsychology has proven useful in defining neural and cognitive
subsystems involved in certain cognitive processes such as spatial attention (Posner …

Subjects identified target letters that occurred randomly at the local or global level in a
divided attention task. The visual angle of the stimuli was varied. Neurologically intact …

Three experiments examined the effects of changes in retinal locus and locational
uncertainty in the processing of hierarchical stimuli. In Experiment 1, stimuli were presented …

Numerous studies have investigated the effects of alcohol on motor processes during rising
and declining blood alcohol concentrations (BAC), however, relatively little research has …

Naturalistic paradigms such as movie watching or simulated driving that mimic closely real-
world complex activities are becoming more widely used in functional magnetic resonance …

The processing of hierarchical stimuli was examined in patients with lesions in the temporal-
parietal junction. In separate blocks of trials, subjects were instructed to identify the letter at …

It has been shown that there is a transition from a global to a local advantage in reaction
time as visual angle increases (Kinchla & Wolfe, 1979), and it has been assumed that this …

Five experiments investigated the role of attention in identifying global and local targets in
hierarchically structured patterns. Hierarchical patterns were presented at a variable …

Can spatial frequency differences between local and global forms account for differences in
the way different levels of structure are analyzed? We examined this question by having …
