Atypical right hemispheric functioning in the euthymic state of bipolar affective disorder (2014)
Journal Article
Najt, P., & Hausmann, M. (2014). Atypical right hemispheric functioning in the euthymic state of bipolar affective disorder. Psychiatry Research, 220(1-2), 315-321. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psychres.2014.08.015

Bipolar disorder (BD) has been associated with right hemisphere dysfunction. These findings usually come from studies that have not distinguished between symptomatic and euthymic states of BD. The present study aims to investigate atypical right (and... Read More about Atypical right hemispheric functioning in the euthymic state of bipolar affective disorder.

Arts versus science - Academic background implicitly activates gender stereotypes on cognitive abilities with threat raising men's (but lowering women's) performance (2014)
Journal Article
Hausmann, M. (2014). Arts versus science - Academic background implicitly activates gender stereotypes on cognitive abilities with threat raising men's (but lowering women's) performance. Intelligence, 46, 235-245. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.intell.2014.07.004

There is ongoing debate as to whether “innate” cognitive sex differences contribute to the underrepresentation of women in science and engineering careers. Decades of gender research have revealed good evidence that both biological (e.g. sex hormones...

Resting states are resting traits - An fMRI study of sex differences and menstrual cycle effects in resting state cognitive control networks (2014)
Journal Article
Hjelmervik, H., Hausmann, M., Osnes, B., Westerhausen, R., & Specht, K. (2014). Resting states are resting traits - An fMRI study of sex differences and menstrual cycle effects in resting state cognitive control networks. PLoS ONE, 9(7), Article e103492. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0103492

To what degree resting state fMRI is stable or susceptible to internal mind states of the individual is currently an issue of debate. To address this issue, the present study focuses on sex differences and investigates whether resting state fMRI is s...

Gender-stereotyping and cognitive sex differences in mixed- and same-gender groups (2014)
Journal Article
Hirnstein, M., Andrews, L., & Hausmann, M. (2014). Gender-stereotyping and cognitive sex differences in mixed- and same-gender groups. Archives of Sexual Behavior, 43(8), 1663-1673. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10508-014-0311-5

Sex differences in specific cognitive abilities are well documented, but the biological, psychological, and sociocultural interactions that may underlie these differences are largely unknown. We examined within a biopsychosocial approach how gender s... Read More about Gender-stereotyping and cognitive sex differences in mixed- and same-gender groups.

Menstrual cycle effects on selective attention and its underlying cortical networks (2014)
Journal Article
Thimm, M., Weis, S., Hausmann, M., & Sturm, W. (2014). Menstrual cycle effects on selective attention and its underlying cortical networks. Neuroscience, 258, 307-317. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroscience.2013.11.010

It was the aim of the present study to investigate menstrual cycle effects on selective attention and its underlying functional cerebral networks. Twenty-one healthy, right-handed, normally cycling women were investigated by means of functional magne...

How brain asymmetry relates to performance – a large scale dichotic listening study (2014)
Journal Article
Hirnstein, M., Hugdahl, K., & Hausmann, M. (2014). How brain asymmetry relates to performance – a large scale dichotic listening study. Frontiers in Psychology, 4, Article 997. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2013.00997

All major mental functions including language, spatial and emotional processing are lateralized but how strongly and to which hemisphere is subject to inter- and intraindividual variation. Relatively little, however, is known about how the degree and... Read More about How brain asymmetry relates to performance – a large scale dichotic listening study.
