Enhancing Biochemistry Assessments: Our Experience with MCQ Validation in Punjab [PDF]
Background and aim: Item analysis of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) is a widely accepted method to ensure their quality and effectiveness. Key indices used in this process include the difficulty index (DIF I), discrimination index (DI), and distractor ...

Background: Various working memory (WM) trainings have been tested, but differences in experimental designs, the lack of theoretical background, and the need of identifying task-related processes such as filtering efficiency limit conclusions about their

Affective attention under cognitive load: reduced emotional biases but emergent anxiety-related costs to inhibitory control [PDF]
Trait anxiety is associated with deficits in attentional control, particularly in the ability to inhibit prepotent responses. Here, we investigated this effect while varying the level of cognitive load in a modified antisaccade task that employed ...

Eye tracking the face in the crowd task: why are angry faces found more quickly? [PDF]
Among a crowd of distractor faces, threatening or angry target faces are identified more quickly and accurately than are nonthreatening or happy target faces, a finding known as the "face in the crowd effect." Two perceptual explanations of the effect ...

Visual marking and facial affect : can an emotional face be ignored? [PDF]
Previewing a set of distractors allows them to be ignored in a subsequent visual search task (Watson & Humphreys, 1997). Seven experiments investigated whether this preview benefit can be obtained with emotional faces, and whether negative and positive ...

The interaction of target-distractor similarity and visual search efficiency for basic features
Visual search efficiency is commonly measured by the relationship between subject response time (RT) and display set size. Basic features are visual features for which a singleton target can be found efficiently (RT independent of set size), a situation commonly referred to as pop-out.

“Two Minds Don’t Blink Alike”: The Attentional Blink Does Not Occur in a Joint Context [PDF]
Typically, when two individuals perform a task together, each partner monitors the other partners' responses and goals to ensure that the task is completed efficiently. This monitoring is thought to involve a co-representation of the joint goals and task,

Distractor-Aware Long-Term Correlation Tracking Based on Information Entropy Weighted Feature
Correlation filter based tracking algorithms have received significant attention in visual tracking due to their accuracy and speed. However, it is susceptible to distractors and performs poor when it is faced with occlusion and severe deformation.
