  1. 1In an experiment exploring the role of working memory in the ability to ignore auditory distractors, the experimenters split subjects into high working memory load, low working memory load and no load groups. It was found that it was found that subjects under high working memory load were more susceptible to distraction than those with low or no load.

    How many levels of IV was there in this experiment?
    1. A0
    2. B1
    3. C2
    4. D3
  2. 2In an experiment exploring the role of working memory in the ability to ignore auditory distractors, the experiments split subjects into high working memory load, low working memory load and no load. It was found that it was found that subjects under high working memory load were more susceptible to distraction than those with low or no load.

    What was the dependant variable in this study?
    1. ASusceptibility to distraction
    2. BHigh working memory load
    3. CLow working memory load
    4. DNo working memory load
  3. 3[blank_start]Spatial Resolution:[blank_end] The accuracy at which we can measure where an event occurs in the brain.

    [blank_start]Temporal Resolution:[blank_end] The accuracy at which we can measure when an event occurs in the brain.
    1. ASpatial Resolution:
    2. BTemporal Resolution
    3. CTemporal Resolution:
    4. DSpatial Resolution:
  4. 4The cocktail party phenomenon:

    In dichotic listening tasks participants will not notice the repetition of the same word over and over again in the unattended ear but will notice if their name is mentioned.

    What does this result tell us about our ability to notice unattended stimuli?
    1. AThat the unattended stimuli is processed semantically to some point and not just its physical characteristics.
    2. BThat unattended stimuli are limited to processing of physical properties only.
    3. CThat unattended stimuli are filtered early on.
  5. 5The cocktail party phenomenon gives support best to which bottleneck model of attention?
    1. ABroadbents filter model.
    2. BTreismans attenuation model.
  6. 6In Johnston and Wilsons (1980) experiment,subjects are asked to respond yes/no if a target is in a certain category. An ambiguous target was paired with either a neutral, appropriate or inappropriate paring in the unattended ear, for example, organ could be matched with church (appropriate), paper (neutral) or kidney (inappropriate).

    The resulting improved accuracy under the appropriate condition compared to the neutral and inappropriate conditions tells us what about the level of semantic processing in unattended stimuli and?
    1. AThe information in the unattended ear is semantically processed to some degree and influences the judgement of the attended ear.
    2. BThe information in the unattended ear is not processed semantically and so has no influence over the judgement of the attended ear.
    3. CParticipants are able to consciously choose whether or not unattended information is processed semantically or not.
    4. DUnattended stimuli are filtered early on, as in broadbents filter model.
  7. 7What are some factors that determine how well we can perform two tasks at the same time?
    1. ASimilarity of stimulus modality
    2. BSimilarity of response modality
    3. CAutomaticity
    4. DWorking memory load
    5. EIntelligence
    6. FAttractiveness of the person
  8. 8What are some characteristics of automaticity?
    1. AFast
    2. BRequire a lot of attentional capacity
    3. CUnconscious
    4. DFlexible
    5. EUnavoidable
  9. 9In Shiffrin and Shneiders study, participants learned to do a task over many trials searching in a set area until the task become automatic. Participants were then told to respond to trials in a subsection of the same area but found it difficult to restrict their responding to the smaller area.

    Which feature of automaticity does this result explain?
    1. AUnavoidability
    2. BFast processing
    3. CUnconscious processing
    4. DRequiring little attentional capacity
  10. 10Instance theory describes automaticity as the result of memorised responses, hence requiring litle attentional capacity.
    1. ARichtig
    2. BFalsch
