(2018): Verbal-spatial and visuospatial coding of power-space interactions. In: Consciousness and cognition, S. 151-160. DOI: 10.1016/j.concog.2018.05.003
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.concog.2018.05.003 Abstract: A power-space interaction, which denotes the phenomenon that people responded faster to powerful words when they are placed higher in a visual field and faster to powerless words when they are placed lower in a visual field, has been repeatedly found. The dominant explanation of this power-space interaction is that it results from a tight correspondence between the representation of power and visual space (i.e., a visuospatial coding account). In the present study, we demonstrated that the interaction between power and space could be also based on a verbal-spatial coding in absence of any vertical spatial information. Additionally, the verbal-spatial coding was dominant in driving the power-space interaction when verbal space was contrasted with the visual space.
