Is mental imagery a single process?

Our meta-analysis of 46 fMRI studies suggests not.

We find a key divide between object imagery (visualizing an object in rich detail) and spatial imagery (mentally transforming objects).

Different sources of the numerical comparison size effect - Memory & Cognition In symbolic number comparison tasks, the numerical distance and size effects are largely influenced by the statistical properties of the stimuli. Here, we tested whether nonsymbolic number comparison ...

In a number comparison task, the size effect is, in fact, at least three distinct size effects with three corresponding generators. See more details about the anatomy of the number comparison size effect at doi.org/10.3758/s134...

RegCheck RegCheck is an AI tool to compare preregistrations with papers instantly.

Comparing registrations to published papers is essential to research integrity - and almost no one does it routinely because it's slow, messy, and time-demanding.

RegCheck was built to help make this process easier.

Today, we launch RegCheck V2.
