Interferencia entre el procesamiento de estímulos gustativos y estímulos visuales lingüísticos incompletos en la memoria operative

Abstract

This study aims to expand evidence about the stroop effect on cross-modalities of taste and incomplete visual stimuli. The specific case studied herein is for written words with missing letters. The stroop effect indicates some interference in working memory for information coming from different perceptual sources. In previous studies, congruence between different modalities generated faster responses and more accurate recognitions. This paper shows that the same results can be obtained for the cross-modalities of taste and incomplete visual stimuli. Te ecological materials applied in this study are considered relevant for the current discussions of the topic. Limitations of this contribution are presented as well as and some suggestions for future research.
