Consciousness
Spontaneous repetitive thoughts can be adaptive
When researchers use the term mind wandering for task-unrelated thoughts in signal detection tasks, we may fall into the trap of believing that spontaneous thoughts are task unrelated in a deeper sense. Similar negative connotations are attached to common terms like cognitive failures, resting state, rumination, distraction, attentional failures, absent-mindedness, repetitiveness, mind lapses, going AWOL in the brain, cortical idling, and the lik…

Attention Versus Consciousness in the Visual Brain
A common confound between consciousness and attention makes it difficult to think clearly about recent advances in the understanding of the visual brain. Visual consciousness involves phenomenal experience of the visual world, but visual attention is more plausibly treated as a function that selects and maintains the selection of potential conscious contents, often unconsciously. In the same sense, eye movements select conscious visual events, wh…
In the Theater of Consciousness
Combining psychology with brain science, Baars brilliantly brings his subject to life with a metaphor that has been used to understand consciousness since the time of Plato and Aristotlethe mind as theater. Here consciousness is seen as a "stage" on which our sensations, perceptions, thoughts, and feelings play to a vast, silent audience (the immensely complicated inner-workings of the brain's unconscious processes). Behind the scenes, silent con…

Experimental verbal slip studies
Spoken language is encoded extremely rapidly and by exceedingly complex cognitive operations, yet it is amazingly free of errors. In recent years there has been debate on the question of how the speech‐production system guards itself against erroneous output. One explanation is that the system is sufficiently sophisticated and rule‐governed in its early message‐formulation stages so as generally to avoid constructing anomalous plans. The authors …

Toward Verifying the Assumptions of Laboratory-Induced Slips of the Tongue
During the second half of the past decade, psycholinguistic models of speech production have been modified to include a "prearticulatory editing" component, the supposed function of which is to verify the linguistic integrity of impending phoneme strings destined for articulation. Empirical support for psycholinguistic editing comes primarily from studies by the present authors on laboratory-induced verbal slips. All of these studies have depende…
Personality and Situational Influences Upon Verbal Slips
Earlier studies of laboratory-induced verbal slips have demonstrated the existence of a "prearticulatory editing" phase of speech/language production, the supposed function of which is to evaluate the linguistic integrity of phoneme sequences destined for articulation, allowing articulation of linguistically legitimate sequences, and preventing articulation of linguistically anomalous sequences. Freud's view of verbal slips as a manifestation of …
Encoding Sensitivities to Phonological Markedness and Transitional Probability
This study examined laboratory-induced spoonerisms; the type of speech error in which a phoneme unit from one word switches position with a phoneme unit from another word. Three experiments test hypotheses which assume that spoonerism errors are facilitated by the presence of certain inherent differences between the switched phonological units. Experiment I tests for facilitation based upon differences in the phonological markedness of the switch…

Laboratory Verification of “Freudian” Slips of the Tongue as Evidence of Prearticulatory Semantic Editing
Earlier research has shown that spoonerisms (e.g., wage rate → rage wait) can be elicited by a laboratory technique in which subjects attempt to articulate a target (wage rate) preceded by biasing word items containing certain phonological characteristics of the designed error (rage wait). The frequency of errors on various targets depends more upon the linguistic characteristics of their potential spoonerism than upon the characteristics of the …

Experimentally eliciting phonetic and sentential speech errors
Linguists and psychologists have noted the potential value of studying speech errors since the 1890s (Meringer & Mayer 1895; Freud 1938; Fromkin 1973; MacKay 1972). The reasoning has been that involuntary errors may lay bare certain aspects of the speech production system which are hidden in normal, errorless speech. Today we are closer than ever before to realizing this hope, because (a) we have more complete samples and analyses of spontaneous …
