Item-specific overlap between hallucinatory experiences and cognition in the general population: A three-step multivariate analysis of international multi-site data (2021)
Journal Article
Chinchani, A. M., Menon, M., Roes, M., Hwang, H., Allen, P., Bell, V., …Woodward, T. S. (2021). Item-specific overlap between hallucinatory experiences and cognition in the general population: A three-step multivariate analysis of international multi-site data. Cortex, 145, 131 - 144. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2021.08.014

Hallucinatory experiences (HEs) can be pronounced in psychosis, but similar experiences also occur in nonclinical populations. Cognitive mechanisms hypothesized to underpin HEs include dysfunctional source monitoring, heightened signal detection, and...

Explaining the relation between early mind-mindedness and children’s mentalizing abilities: The development of an observational preschool assessment (2021)
Journal Article
Fishburn, S., Meins, E., Fernyhough, C., Centifanti, L., & Larkin, F. (2022). Explaining the relation between early mind-mindedness and children’s mentalizing abilities: The development of an observational preschool assessment. Developmental Psychology, 58(1), 17-31. https://doi.org/10.1037/dev0001272

The aim of this research was to develop a new observation-based measure for assessing caregivers’ mind-mindedness in the preschool years and investigate whether this measure could explain the link between mothers’ early appropriate mind-related comme...

Modulating medial prefrontal cortex activity using real-time fMRI neurofeedback: Effects on reality monitoring performance and associated functional connectivity (2021)
Journal Article
Garrison, J., Saviola, F., Morgenroth, E., Barker, H., Lührs, M., Simons, J., …Allen, P. (2021). Modulating medial prefrontal cortex activity using real-time fMRI neurofeedback: Effects on reality monitoring performance and associated functional connectivity. NeuroImage, 245, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2021.118640

Neuroimaging studies have found ‘reality monitoring’, our ability to distinguish internally generated experiences from those derived from the external world, to be associated with activity in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of the brain. Here we... Read More about Modulating medial prefrontal cortex activity using real-time fMRI neurofeedback: Effects on reality monitoring performance and associated functional connectivity.

Brain Mechanisms Underlying the Subjective Experience of Remembering (2021)
Journal Article
Simons, J. S., Ritchey, M., & Fernyhough, C. (2022). Brain Mechanisms Underlying the Subjective Experience of Remembering. Annual Review of Psychology, 73, https://doi.org/10.1146/annurev-psych-030221-025439

The ability to remember events in vivid, multisensory detail is a significant part of human experience, allowing us to relive previous encounters and providing us with the store of memories that shape our identity. Recent research has sought to under... Read More about Brain Mechanisms Underlying the Subjective Experience of Remembering.

Correlates of hallucinatory experiences in the general population: an international multi-site replication study (2021)
Journal Article
Moseley, P., Aleman, A., Allen, P., Bell, V., Bless, J., Bortolon, C., …Fernyhough, C. (2021). Correlates of hallucinatory experiences in the general population: an international multi-site replication study. Psychological Science, 32(7), 1024-1037

Hallucinatory experiences can occur in both clinical and nonclinical groups. However, in previous studies of the general population, investigations of the cognitive mechanisms underlying hallucinatory experiences have yielded inconsistent results. We...
