	Abstract:When two upright identical images of the same face (but not clocks) were aligned vertically, the face at the bottom appeared 'fatter'. We conducted three experiments to test whether the outline of face have any contribution to this illusion. In experiment 1, we changed the face photos' outline as ovals. Subjects showed the illusion again, which indicated the face inner parts were important to the illusion. In experiment 2 & 3, we used the same line-changed inner parts of faces, with trapezoid and hexagon as outline respectively. Results showed that the trapezoid came up with the illusion but the hexagon didn't, suggesting the outline also have effect on the phenomenon.

	2. The contribution of configural and featural processes to own-race faces identity

	Abstract:The own-race advantage (ORA) in face recognition was proposed as one of the consequences of superiority of configural, not featural, information processing in own-race faces. In this study, subjects' sensitivity to changes of both featural and configural information in upper- and lower-half face were parametrically measured. Results showed ORA in both of the two processes. Especially, the size of ORA was larger in the upper half of face (i.e., eyes region) than the lower half of face (i.e., mouth region). These results suggested that expertise in face rely on both configural and featural processing.

	3. Attentional Capture by Working Memory Contents

	Abstract:In contrast to the consensus that target template held in working memory (WM) can voluntarily guide the deployment of spatial attention, there has been recent controversy as to whether WM contents can also guide attention automatically. The present study attempted to assess the automaticity of WM effects on visual attention in a more controlled setting by precluding any potential strategic-influence on performance. Here, the occasionally presented memory-matching stimuli only overlapped with the memory items (i.e., memory matches were never identical to the to-be-memorized items), and the upcoming targets never appeared at the locations of the memory matches. Despite these, the color-matching objects still had a privileged status to capture attention, and this top-down effect on selection can be established in both consolidation and maintenance processes of WM. The author discussed the implications of these findings for understanding WM effects on visual selection.

	Abstract:With healthy young adults, healthy old adults(which was hereafter termed as elders) and tumor patients with no pathological changes in brain(which was hereafter designated as patients) as participants, this study compared the performance of the item recognition task with that of the location source retrieval using unfamiliar human faces as stimuli among these groups. The results showed that (1) except the non-target-old faces, both of healthy groups performed better for the item recognition task than they did at the source retrieval stage, and the accuracy of other faces was much lower for the elders compared with that of the younger adults, however, the difference of the corresponding reaction times for these types of faces did not reach significance between these two groups; and (2) except the non-target-new faces, the difference of the accuracy for other faces did not approach statistical significance between the patients and the elders, and the corresponding reaction times were much slower in the former group. These findings indicate that aging can influence both the item recognition and the source retrieval tasks obviously, and much stronger on the latter one. Compared with other symptoms due to brain damage or lesion, the disease of tumor in the present study shows no prominent effects on the accuracy of the source retrieval task.

	5. Semantic Consciousness in English Word Teaching and Learning

	Abstract:Most English words, especially content words, have got various connotations besides denotations, which are essential in our daily verbal communication, but may become overwhelming for teachers and students to cope with in class. As a consequence, teaching and learning English words and their meanings are always challenging to non-native English teachers and students who are living in non-English speaking environments. Although various methods have been adopted in our daily teaching and learning, and great efforts are made continually, it is felt that less achievement has been gained than expected. To relieve anxiety and facilitate our English word teaching and learning, semantic consciousness is discussed in this paper, based on the semantic awareness, which is natural to native speakers. If semantic consciousness is developed and promoted, English teachers, especially non-native English speakers in non-English speaking environments, may become clear about how to teach English words pleasantly, efficiently and effectively, and students can feel it enjoyable and pleasant to learn English words. The paper briefly illustrates how to develop and promote semantic consciousness, which would be helpful to both teachers and students to improve our present practice in English word teaching and learning.

	6. Morphological Consciousness in English Word Teaching and Learning

	Abstract:In the English language, there are too many words for us to learn, even affixes alone cannot fully be dealt with by teachers and students in class, though some try their best to do so. Faced with numerous words and their variants, teachers and students have adopted various methods to cope with daily word teaching and learning. Quite often, teachers and students (at least in China) begin with great ambition, strong enthusiasm, but end up with unexpected disappointment and frustration. In this paper, morphological consciousness is initiated, stated, and how to develop and promote students’ consciousness in our daily English word teaching and learning is also briefly illustrated from the perspective of psycholinguistics. The author argues that direct and enriched English word teaching is essential, but students’ morphological consciousness is significant in constructive and heuristic teaching of English words, especially for those Chinese teachers and students who are struggling with English words. Morphological consciousness will help students readily gain necessary morphological knowledge, developing an intrinsic awareness of, and an everlasting interest in English words, so that they will more actively, confidently undertake the responsibility for learning and using English words with joy. Such practices can bring both teachers and students benefits such as accumulating as many clusters of English words as expected, or even more than expected.
