“…When verbal-spatial mappings are familiar, this integration is perhaps then facilitated by long-term knowledge, also made available by the episodic buffer. Notwithstanding evidence inconsistent with Baddeley et al’s (2011) proposition that visuospatial information is simultaneously represented in domain-specific and domain-general forms (Morey, Guérard, & Tremblay, 2013), this account places immense explanatory burden on an episodic buffer. The episodic buffer is assumed to flexibly integrate information from at least three sources, and moreover, because it does not necessarily do this whenever information of all types is available (e.g., Guérard et al, 2013), we must also suppose some sort of selectivity.…”

Visuospatial bootstrapping (VSB) occurs when memory for verbal material is enhanced via association with meaningful visuospatial information. Sequences of digits are visually presented either in the center of the screen or within a keypad layout in which the digits may be arranged identically to familiar pin pad and mobile phone layouts, or randomly. Recall is consistently higher when digits are presented in the familiar layout. This "bootstrapping" could involve primarily long-term knowledge of the layout, primarily short-term memory of the unique spatial path, or may depend on both. We manipulated the path complexity of sequences to test whether the VSB effect depends on the quality of spatial representations in conjunction with the familiarity of the spatial layout in two experiments. We consistently observed both VSB effects and path complexity effects on verbal serial recall, but never observed any interaction between these factors, even when articulatory suppression was imposed. Analysis of recall by serial position revealed that the VSB effect was focused on the end-of-list items. Our finding of pervasive path complexity effects on verbal serial recall suggests incidental encoding of spatial path occurs during visually-presented verbal tasks regardless of layout familiarity, confirming that spatial factors can affect verbal recall, but ruling out the notion that incidental spatial paths are uniquely and voluntarily encoded with familiar layouts.

The Modulation of Stimulus Presentation and Lag Length on Repetition Priming of Pictures

Previous studies have demonstrated that repetition priming effect is modulated by the pre-existing representation of stimuli. In addition, studies have observed the conceptual priming effect in the case of exemplar exchange and the perceptual priming effect in the case of orientation transformation of primed stimuli. However, no research has controlled the conceptual priming and the perceptual priming simultaneously, or has further explored the influence of lag length on the above two types of priming. In order to address these issues, the present experiment adopted 850 pictures as materials, and manipulated the lag length between unprimed and primed stimuli (including immediate and delayed repetition), and the stimulus presentation (exemplar exchange and orientation transformation of primed stimuli). The analysis showed that the repetition priming effects of both accuracy and reaction time were modulated by exemplar exchange, orientation transformation of primed pictures, as well as lag length. The analysis showed that the strength of repetition priming effect of accuracy was sensitive to the factors of exemplar exchange, orientation transformation of primed pictures, and lag length; the strength of repetition priming effect of reaction time was sensitive to the interaction of exemplar exchange and lag length. In conclusion, the robust repetition priming effect and its strength in pictures supports top-down processing. The sensitivity of repetition priming effect and the strength of repetition priming effect to both exemplar exchange and orientation transformation of primed stimuli suggest we record significant conceptual priming and perceptual priming. Our data also show that the conceptual priming induced by exemplar exchange and the perceptual priming induced by orientation transformation of primed stimuli are sensitive to the lag length between unprimed and primed stimuli, strengthening the memory processing framework.
