Johnsrude 2013 conducted a replication of Cherry 1953 cocktail party problem experiment. The conditions differed in which there were 3 conditions : Familiar target, familiar masker and baseline. What conclusion was made?

Processing auditory information is bottom up. This is due to the participants having the highest level of correct response with familiar target.

Processing auditory information is both top down and bottom up.

The processing of auditory information is top down. This is due to participants having highest level of correct responses with familiar target. (correct)

None of the above

Covert attention = Being able to see other things in your peripheral vision when focused on one thing.

True

After how many milliseconds does semantic processing occur when a meaningful stimulus is shown?

200

300

400 (correct)

500

If an amnesic patient, e.g. a Korsakov patient, reads words from a list presented one at a time, but in mirror reversed text, and then reads the same list again, what result has been found (compared to the results of healthy controls):
