Psychophysical and neuroimaging responses to moving stimuli in a patient with the Riddoch phenomenon due to bilateral visual cortex lesions (2018)
Journal Article
Arcaro, M. J., Thaler, L., Quinlan, D. J., Monaco, S., Khan, S., Valyear, K. F., …Culham, J. C. (2019). Psychophysical and neuroimaging responses to moving stimuli in a patient with the Riddoch phenomenon due to bilateral visual cortex lesions. Neuropsychologia, 128, 150-165. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2018.05.008

Patients with injury to early visual cortex or its inputs can display the Riddoch phenomenon: preserved awareness for moving but not stationary stimuli. We provide a detailed case report of a patient with the Riddoch phenomenon, MC. MC has extensive...

A Bayesian Model of the Memory Colour Effect (2018)
Journal Article
Witzel, C., Olkkonen, M., & Gegenfurtner, K. R. (2018). A Bayesian Model of the Memory Colour Effect. i-Perception, 9(3), Article 204166951877171. https://doi.org/10.1177/2041669518771715

According to the memory colour effect, the colour of a colour-diagnostic object is not perceived independently of the object itself. Instead, it has been shown through an achromatic adjustment method that colour-diagnostic objects still appear slight... Read More about A Bayesian Model of the Memory Colour Effect.

Same-gender distractors are not so easy to reject: ERP evidence of gender categorization (2018)
Journal Article
Rakic, T., Steffens, M. C., & Wiese, H. (2018). Same-gender distractors are not so easy to reject: ERP evidence of gender categorization. Cognitive, Affective, and Behavioral Neuroscience, 18(5), 825-836. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13415-018-0607-3

Social categorization appears to be an automatic process that occurs during person perception. Understanding social categorization better is important because mere categorization can lead to stereotype activation and, in turn, to discrimination. In t...

Effects of parental intervention on behavioural and psychological outcomes for Kurdish parents and their children (2018)
Journal Article
Sangawi, H., Adams, J., & Reissland, N. (2018). Effects of parental intervention on behavioural and psychological outcomes for Kurdish parents and their children. Eastern Mediterranean Health Journal, 24(5), 459-468. https://doi.org/10.26719/2018.24.5.459

Background: Parenting interventions are rarely offered in developing countries and there is an urgent need to include low-income countries. Aims: To examine the effectiveness of Systematic Training for Effective Parenting (STEP) among Kurdish parents...

Human echolocation for target detection is more accurate with emissions containing higher spectral frequencies, and this is explained by echo intensity (2018)
Journal Article
Norman, L., & Thaler, L. (2018). Human echolocation for target detection is more accurate with emissions containing higher spectral frequencies, and this is explained by echo intensity. i-Perception, 9(3), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1177/2041669518776984

Humans can learn to use acoustic echoes to detect and classify objects. Echolocators typically use tongue clicks to induce these echoes, and there is some evidence that higher spectral frequency content of an echolocator’s tongue click is associated...

Category-based attentional guidance can operate in parallel for multiple target objects (2018)
Journal Article
Jenkins, M., Grubert, A., & Eimer, M. (2018). Category-based attentional guidance can operate in parallel for multiple target objects. Biological Psychology, 135, 211-219. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biopsycho.2018.04.006

The question whether the control of attention during visual search is always feature-based or can also be based on the category of objects remains unresolved. Here, we employed the N2pc component as an on-line marker for target selection processes to...

Impact of lower alcohol strength labels on consumption of wine and beer: a bar lab randomised controlled trial (2018)
Journal Article
Vasiljevic, M., Couturier, D., Frings, D., Moss, A., Albery, I., & Marteau, T. (2018). Impact of lower alcohol strength labels on consumption of wine and beer: a bar lab randomised controlled trial. Annals of Behavioral Medicine, 52(suppl_1), S158-S158

Background: Labels indicating low/light versions of tobacco and foods are perceived as less harmful which may increase consumption. The current study tests the hypothesis that labelling wine and beer as lower in alcohol increases their consumption. M...

Origins of mother–child reminiscing style (2018)
Journal Article
Reese, E., Meins, E., Fernyhough, C., & Centifanti, L. (2019). Origins of mother–child reminiscing style. Development and Psychopathology, 31(2), 631-642. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0954579418000172

Maternal elaborative reminiscing supports preschool children's autobiographical memory, self-concept, and emotion understanding. What are the factors contributing to mothers' elaborative style of reminiscing? In a longitudinal community sample (n = 1... Read More about Origins of mother–child reminiscing style.

Strong evidence that callous–unemotional traits are not related to risk-taking task performance (2018)
Journal Article
Centifanti, L. C., & Negen, J. (2018). Strong evidence that callous–unemotional traits are not related to risk-taking task performance. F1000Research, 7, Article 502. https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.14623.1

A hypothesized association between callous–unemotional (CU) traits and risk-taking may account for the link between CU traits and real-world risky behaviors, such as illegal behavior. Prior findings show that reward and punishment responsivity differ... Read More about Strong evidence that callous–unemotional traits are not related to risk-taking task performance.

Human echolocation: 2D shape discrimination using features extracted from acoustic echoes (2018)
Journal Article
Yu, X., Thaler, L., Baker, C., Smith, G., & Zhao, L. (2018). Human echolocation: 2D shape discrimination using features extracted from acoustic echoes. Electronics Letters, 54(12), 785-787. https://doi.org/10.1049/el.2018.0680

Some blind humans have developed the ability to perceive their silent surrounding by using echolocation based on tongue clicks. Past research has also shown that blind echolocators can use information gained from multiple echoic ‘views’, provided thr...
