Sleeping perfectly? Trait perfectionism, perceived stress, and sleep quality (2020)
Journal Article
Molnar, D. S., Janssen, W. F., & Sirois, F. M. (2020). Sleeping perfectly? Trait perfectionism, perceived stress, and sleep quality. Personality and Individual Differences, 167, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2020.110244

The aims of our study were to test the role of stress in explaining the links between multidimensional perfectionism and sleep quality and to replicate our findings with two distinct samples and two different measures of perfectionism. Sample 1 inclu... Read More about Sleeping perfectly? Trait perfectionism, perceived stress, and sleep quality.

Voice-Hearing and Personification: Characterizing Social Qualities of Auditory Verbal Hallucinations in Early Psychosis (2020)
Journal Article
Alderson-Day, B., Woods, A., Moseley, P., Dodgson, G., Deamer, F., Common, S., & Fernyhough, C. (2021). Voice-Hearing and Personification: Characterizing Social Qualities of Auditory Verbal Hallucinations in Early Psychosis. Schizophrenia Bulletin: The Journal of Psychoses and Related Disorders, 47(1), 228-236. https://doi.org/10.1093/schbul/sbaa095

Recent therapeutic approaches to auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) exploit the person-like qualities of voices. Little is known, however, about how, why, and when AVH become personified. We aimed to investigate personification in individuals’ earl...

Cue duration determines response rate but not rate of acquisition of Pavlovian conditioning in mice (2020)
Journal Article
Austen, J. M., & Sanderson, D. J. (2020). Cue duration determines response rate but not rate of acquisition of Pavlovian conditioning in mice. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 73(11), 2026-2035. https://doi.org/10.1177/1747021820937696

The duration of a conditioned stimulus (CS) is a key determinant of Pavlovian conditioning. Rate estimation theory (RET) proposes that reinforcement rate is calculated over cumulative exposure to a cue and the reinforcement rate of a cue, relative to...

Using working memory performance to predict mathematics performance 2 years on (2020)
Journal Article
Allen, K., Giofrè, D., Higgins, S., & Adams, J. (2020). Using working memory performance to predict mathematics performance 2 years on. Psychological Research, 85(5), 1986-1996. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-020-01382-5

A number of previous studies have used working memory components to predict mathematical performance in a variety of ways; however, there is no consideration of the contributions of the subcomponents of visuospatial working memory to this prediction....

The timing of adrenarche in Maya girls, Merida, Mexico (2020)
Journal Article
Keestra, S. M., Bentley, G. R., Núñez-de la Mora, A., Houghton, L. C., Wilson, H., Vázquez-Vázquez, A., …Varela-Silva, M. I. (2021). The timing of adrenarche in Maya girls, Merida, Mexico. American Journal of Human Biology, 33(2), Article e23465. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajhb.23465

Aims: To investigate adrenarcheal age among Maya girls and its association with body composition and dietary variables. We hypothesized adrenarche would occur earlier given the current dual burden of nutrition in Mexico. Materials and Methods: 25 May...

Feasibility of a psychoeducational group intervention to improve parental reflective functioning and bonding in pregnancy: A randomised trial (2020)
Journal Article
Cox, H., James, A., Day, C., & Reissland, N. (2021). Feasibility of a psychoeducational group intervention to improve parental reflective functioning and bonding in pregnancy: A randomised trial. Journal of Reproductive and Infant Psychology, 39(5), 499-515. https://doi.org/10.1080/02646838.2020.1786036

Objective: To develop and evaluate Baby CHAT, a single-session psychoeducational intervention for expectant parents. Baby CHAT aims to improve parental reflective functioning (RF) and bonding. Background: The early years of a child’s life, including...

Using Occam's razor and Bayesian modelling to compare discrete and continuous representations in numerosity judgements (2020)
Journal Article
Spicer, J., Sanborn, A. N., & Beierholm, U. R. (2020). Using Occam's razor and Bayesian modelling to compare discrete and continuous representations in numerosity judgements. Cognitive Psychology, 122, Article 101309. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cogpsych.2020.101309

Previous research has established that numeric estimates are based not just on perceptual data but also past experience, and so may be influenced by the form of this stored information. It remains unclear, however, how such experience is represented:...

Combining the senses: the role of experience- and task-dependent mechanisms in the development of audiovisual simultaneity perception (2020)
Journal Article
Petrini, K., Denis, G., Love, S., & Nardini, M. (2020). Combining the senses: the role of experience- and task-dependent mechanisms in the development of audiovisual simultaneity perception. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 46(10), 1105-1117. https://doi.org/10.1037/xhp0000827

The brain’s ability to integrate information from the different senses is essential for decreasing sensory uncertainty and ultimately limiting errors. Temporal correspondence is one of the key processes that determines whether information from differ...
