“…Moreover, when attention is captured by sound, the content of the sound tends to be processed thereby potentially producing greater disruption (e.g., Escera, Yago, Corral, Corbera, & Nuñez, 2003;Marsh, Röer, Bell, & Buchner, 2014;Parmentier, Elford, Escera, Andrés, & San Miguel, 2008;Parmentier & Kefauver, 2015).…”

“…Although it would appear from the aforementioned studies (e.g., Monk, Fellas, & Ley, 2004;Norman & Bennett, 2014) that semantic content may be key for the appearance of the halfalogue effect (Emberson et al, 2010), it is unknown whether this is because the semantic content is unpredictable, or whether the acoustic unpredictability of the onset of the half conversation captures attention and semantic processing follows thereafter (e.g., Parmentier & Kefauver, 2015). Thus, there is no clear evidence that the semantic content of the background speech can directly disrupt the focal task: it may do so as a mere by-product of auditory attentional capture.…”

“…Importantly, unexpected sounds also affect behavior through the involuntary appraisal of their semantic contents (e.g., Escera, Yago, Corral, Corbera, & Nuñez, 2003 ; Muller-Gass et al, 2007 ; Parmentier, Pacheco-Unguetti, & Valero, 2018 ; Shtyrov, Hauk, & Pulvermuller, 2004 ; Wetzel, Widmann, & Schröger, 2011 ). For example, response times in a left/right arrow categorization task are affected by the deviant words “left” and “right” in two ways: by virtue of these sounds violating the pattern of standard tones, and as a function of the relationship (congruent or incongruent) between the deviant words’ meaning and the visual arrows (Parmentier, 2008 ; Parmentier & Kefauver, 2015 ; Parmentier, Turner, & Elsley, 2011 ; Parmentier, Turner, & Pérez, 2014 ). While these studies testify of the involuntary semantic processing of the unexpected sounds, little research has examined whether such processing extends to their emotional content.…”

“…The semantic effect, just like deviance distraction, is modulated by predictability, however. Indeed, Parmentier and Kefauver [ 59 ] manipulated the proportion of congruent deviant sounds “left” or “right” (.2, .5, or .8) in a left/right visual arrow categorization task and showed that participants built corresponding predictions. While the deviant sounds yielded deviance distraction in all conditions, the semantic effect (incongruent vs. congruent trials) was modulated by the proportion of congruent trials: it was eliminated when congruent trials were rare (for response times to incongruent trials were shortened by the predictability of the incongruence and response times to congruent trials, in contrast, were lengthened by the fact that the congruence violated predictions) and maximum when congruent trials were most frequent (for response times to incongruent trials were longer due to a combination of crosstalk interference and the violation of predictions and response times to congruent trials were reduced due as a result of congruency and its predictability).…”

“…The studies described in the previous section suggest that deviant sounds undergo some involuntary semantic processing and that the outcome of this processing can in turn impact on performance in the primary task [ 24 , 56 , 57 , 59 ]. In these studies, measuring the impact of the sounds’ semantic processing was achieved through the prism of the semantic congruence effect.…”
