The impact of semantically congruent and incongruent visual information on auditory object recognition across development (2017)
Journal Article
Thomas, R., Nardini, M., & Mareschal, D. (2017). The impact of semantically congruent and incongruent visual information on auditory object recognition across development. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 162, 72-88. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2017.04.020

The ability to use different sensory signals in conjunction confers numerous advantages on perception. Multisensory perception in adults is influenced by factors beyond low-level stimulus properties such as semantic congruency. Sensitivity to semanti...

A field experiment: Testing the potential of norms for achieving behavior change in English parishes (2017)
Journal Article
Van de Vyver, J., & John, P. (2017). A field experiment: Testing the potential of norms for achieving behavior change in English parishes. Journal of Applied Social Psychology, 47(6), 347-352. https://doi.org/10.1111/jasp.12443

Tests of behavioral insights have become increasingly more common, and have been deployed by UK government and agencies. Typically, these field experiments aim to change individual‐level behaviors. The current article tests the potential of behaviora... Read More about A field experiment: Testing the potential of norms for achieving behavior change in English parishes.

A New Trait-Based Model of Child-to-Parent Aggression (2017)
Journal Article
Kuay, H. S., Tiffin, P. A., Boothroyd, L. G., Towl, G. J., & Centifanti, L. C. (2017). A New Trait-Based Model of Child-to-Parent Aggression. Adolescent Research Review, 2(3), 199-211. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40894-017-0061-4

Incidents of child-to-parent aggression have been the most under-researched area of domestic violence. The risk factors for child-to-parent aggression are still unknown. This article reviews risk factors that might explain aggression among adolescent... Read More about A New Trait-Based Model of Child-to-Parent Aggression.

New approaches to mapping and managing palaeochannel resources in the light of future environmental change : a case study from the Trent Valley, UK (2017)
Journal Article
Stein, S., Malone, S., Knight, D., Howard, A. J., & Carey, C. (2017). New approaches to mapping and managing palaeochannel resources in the light of future environmental change : a case study from the Trent Valley, UK. The Historic Environment: Policy & Practice, 8(2), 113-124. https://doi.org/10.1080/17567505.2017.1317086

Abandoned river channels may provide rich primary sources of palaeoenvironmental and cultural information elucidating landscape evolution, climate change, vegetation history and human impact, especially since the beginning of the Holocene epoch. Howe... Read More about New approaches to mapping and managing palaeochannel resources in the light of future environmental change : a case study from the Trent Valley, UK.

Authentic leadership extends beyond work: A multilevel model of work-family conflict and enrichment (2017)
Journal Article
Braun, S., & Nieberle, K. (2017). Authentic leadership extends beyond work: A multilevel model of work-family conflict and enrichment. The Leadership Quarterly, 28(6), 780-797. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.leaqua.2017.04.003

Drawing on the work-home resources model, we develop a multilevel framework of individual and team perceptions of authentic leadership in relation to followers' work-family conflict (WFC) and enrichment (WFE). Our model suggests that authentic leader... Read More about Authentic leadership extends beyond work: A multilevel model of work-family conflict and enrichment.

Is exposure to online content depicting risky behavior related to viewers’ own risky behavior offline? (2017)
Journal Article
Branley, D. B., & Covey, J. (2017). Is exposure to online content depicting risky behavior related to viewers’ own risky behavior offline?. Computers in Human Behavior, 75, 283-287. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chb.2017.05.023

There are public and governmental concerns that social media may encourage risky behavior in the offline environment. Using international survey data from 412 young adults aged between 18-25 years of age (M = 21.20 years, SD = 2.31 years), this study...

Comparing the effect of temporal delay on the availability of egocentric and allocentric information in visual search (2017)
Journal Article
Ball, K., Birch, Y., Lane, A., Ellison, A., & Schenk, T. (2017). Comparing the effect of temporal delay on the availability of egocentric and allocentric information in visual search. Behavioural Brain Research, 331, 38-46. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2017.05.018

Frames of reference play a central role in perceiving an object’s location and reaching to pick that object up. It is thought that the ventral stream, believed to subserve vision for perception, utilises allocentric coding, while the dorsal stream, a...

Multivariate EEG analyses support high-resolution tracking of feature-based attentional selection (2017)
Journal Article
Fahrenfort, J. J., Grubert, A., Olivers, C. N., & Eimer, M. (2017). Multivariate EEG analyses support high-resolution tracking of feature-based attentional selection. Scientific Reports, 7, Article 1886. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-01911-0

The primary electrophysiological marker of feature-based selection is the N2pc, a lateralized posterior negativity emerging around 180–200 ms. As it relies on hemispheric differences, its ability to discriminate the locus of focal attention is severe...

Stuck in the heat or stuck in the hierarchy? Power relations explain regional variations in violence (2017)
Journal Article
Weick, M., Vasiljevic, M., Uskul, A., & Moon, C. (2017). Stuck in the heat or stuck in the hierarchy? Power relations explain regional variations in violence. Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 40, Article e102. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0140525x1600114x

We contend that an ecological account of violence and aggression requires consideration of societal and cultural settings. Focusing on hierarchical relations, we argue countries with higher (vs. lower) power distance are, on average, located closer t... Read More about Stuck in the heat or stuck in the hierarchy? Power relations explain regional variations in violence.

The role of multicultural and colorblind ideologies and typicality in imagined contact interventions (2017)
Journal Article
Visintin, E. P., Birtel, M. D., & Crisp, R. J. (2017). The role of multicultural and colorblind ideologies and typicality in imagined contact interventions. International Journal of Intercultural Relations, 59, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijintrel.2017.04.010

Recent studies have demonstrated that simply imagining a positive interaction with an outgroup member reduces prejudice, especially if the outgroup member is typical of the whole outgroup. In this research, we tested how a multicultural vs. colorblin... Read More about The role of multicultural and colorblind ideologies and typicality in imagined contact interventions.
