In 2 experiments with a total of 54 graduate or undergraduate students, using memory sets of up to 10 letters, the response competition paradigm was employed to investigate the extent to which extraneous visual stimuli interfere with or affect the process of memory search. It was assumed that if selective attention could exclude the effect of noise letters from a Sternberg-type (S. Sternberg; see record 1966-10810-001) memory comparison process, then there would be an increase in intercept for the reaction time (RT)–set size functions but no increase in slope. This result was obtained. However, a large difference in response times to both positive and negative set targets were found when the accompanying noise letters indicated a competing response, as opposed to when they indicated the same response as the target. It is suggested that this implies rapid identification of the nature of both target and noise, independent of a serial comparison process. A modification of a dual process model (JF Juola et al; see record 1972-00186-001) in which stimuli activate a familiarity value independent of memory search was suggested to account for these results.(24 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
