Defining a clear target group, which you can then specifically advertise, is a crucial requirement in a competitive environment. Currently, the Caring Group of America (CGOA) is trying to reach everyone. Their advertising is targeted to individuals, “loved ones” and the entire family. Reaching everyone at the same time with the same advertisement is nearly impossible. Therefore, CGOA should define a clear target group or split “everyone” into a few segmented groups, which can then be addressed…
instructions, prior experience with the task, and perception of the task layout (Ghez et al. 1997; Ghez et al. 1990; Haith et al. 2015; Hudson et al. 2007; Schutte and Spencer 2007). Where the target is not initially specified, the initial planning state represents the information available concerning all potential targets (Cisek and Kalaska 2002; Favilla et al. 1990; Findlay 1982; Gallivan et al. 2015; Ghez et al. 1997; Haith et al. 2015; He and Kowler 1989; Hudson et al. 2007;…

and /ʃ/) were selected as target phonemes. Baseline probes were conducted to assess the stability of these phonemes in a word repetition task. Once stability was observed, the participant was trained using ten consonant-vowel (CV) and consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words for each target phoneme. Ten words remained untrained to assess for future generalization of production accuracy. The dependent variable of this study was the percentage of correct productions of target phonemes. The…

Introduction Ullsperger, Bylsma, and Botvinick (2005) investigated a phenomenon called conflict adaptation, which refers to the pattern in which the difference in response times between incongruent and congruent trials in a basic flanker task is smaller when the current trial follows an incongruent trial. At the time of their study, there was a debate in the field concerning what drives this effect. A previous study by Botvinick, Nystrom, Fissell, Carter, and Cohen (1999) argued that this…
ensure presentation, sequence, and specific item effects were controlled. Each of the four conditions were designed to be equal and controlled for in every aspect other than degree of loneliness and the age of the described individual. The age of target individuals was manipulated using a description stating their age as either 12 years old (young) or 45 years old (old); loneliness description was manipulated into two levels: a high degree of loneliness (lonely) and a low degree of loneliness…
