Aging and implementation of encoding strategies in the generation of rhymes: the role of executive functions.

abstract：:Configural processing in autism was studied in Experiment 1 by using the face inversion effect. A normal inversion effect was observed in the participants with autism, suggesting intact configural face processing. A priming paradigm using partial or complete faces served in Experiment 2 to assess both local and config...
