Aim: To assess whether fetal mouth movement frequency changes across gestation and whether there are differences between cigarette and e-cigarette exposure conditions in comparison to a non-exposed group of fetuses. Method: Pregnant women underwent 4... Read More about Foetal mouth movements: Effects of nicotine.

Journal Article
Kavanagh, E., Street, S. E., Angwela, F. O., Bergman, T. J., Blaszczyk, M. B., Bolt, L. M., …Slocombe, K. (2021). Dominance style is a key predictor of vocal use and evolution across nonhuman primates. Royal Society Open Science, 8(7), Article 210873. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.210873

Animal communication has long been thought to be subject to pressures and constraints associated with social relationships. However, our understanding of how the nature and quality of social relationships relates to the use and evolution of communica...

Modeling Identities in Context: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Leader-Follower Identities (2021)
Journal Article
Nieberle, K., Acton, B., Braun, S., & Lord, R. G. (2021). Modeling Identities in Context: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Leader-Follower Identities. Academy of Management Proceedings, 2021(1), https://doi.org/10.5465/ambpp.2021.13413abstract

Although leadership and followership processes are flexible and fluid, our theoretical and empirical knowledge of the short-term dynamics in individuals’ leadership and followership identities are limited. Building on a Dynamical Systems Perspective... Read More about Modeling Identities in Context: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Leader-Follower Identities.

Heterosexual men in Trump's America downplay compassion more for masculine (than for feminine) gay victims of hate crime: Why? (2021)
Journal Article
Owuamalam, C. K., & Matos, A. S. (2022). Heterosexual men in Trump's America downplay compassion more for masculine (than for feminine) gay victims of hate crime: Why?. European Journal of Social Psychology, 52(2), 280-304. https://doi.org/10.1002/ejsp.2787

Why would heterosexual men downplay their compassion for masculine (vs. feminine) gay victims of hate crime? Two social identity-inspired explanations provide contrasting answers to this question. The reactive distinctiveness thesis (RD) assumes that...

Neural coding of human values is underpinned by brain areas representing the core self in the cortical midline region (2021)
Journal Article
Leszkowicz, E., Maio, G. R., Linden, D. E., & Ihssen, N. (2021). Neural coding of human values is underpinned by brain areas representing the core self in the cortical midline region. Social Neuroscience, 16(5), 486-499. https://doi.org/10.1080/17470919.2021.1953582

The impact of human values on our choices depends on their nature. Self-Transcendence values motivate us to act for the benefit of others and care for the environment. Self-Enhancement values motivate us to act for our benefit. The present study exam...

Limited research has examined disadvantaged group members’ evaluations and support for allies who engage in collective action on their behalf. Across two studies (Study 1 N = 264 women; Study 2 N = 347 Black Americans) we manipulated an ally’s commun...

Out of the empirical box: A mixed-methods study of tool innovation among Congolese BaYaka forager and Bondongo fisher-farmer children (2021)
Journal Article
Lew-Levy, S., Pope, S. M., Haun, D. B., Kline, M. A., & Broesch, T. (2021). Out of the empirical box: A mixed-methods study of tool innovation among Congolese BaYaka forager and Bondongo fisher-farmer children. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 211, Article 105223. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2021.105223

Tool innovation has played a crucial role in human adaptation. Yet, this capacity seems to arise late in development. Before 8 years of age, many children struggle to solve the hook task, a common measure of tool innovation that requires modification...

Central tendency biases must be accounted for to consistently capture Bayesian cue combination in continuous response data (2021)
Journal Article
Aston, S., Negen, J., Nardini, M., & Beierholm, U. (2022). Central tendency biases must be accounted for to consistently capture Bayesian cue combination in continuous response data. Behavior Research Methods, 54(1), 508-521. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13428-021-01633-2

Observers in perceptual tasks are often reported to combine multiple sensory cues in a weighted average that improves precision – in some studies, approaching statistically-optimal (Bayesian) weighting, but in others departing from optimality, or not...

Personality predicts innovation and social learning in children: implications for cultural evolution (2021)
Journal Article
Rawlings, B., Flynn, E., & Kendal, R. (2022). Personality predicts innovation and social learning in children: implications for cultural evolution. Developmental Science, 25(1), Article e13153. https://doi.org/10.1111/desc.13153

Innovation and social learning are the pillars of cultural evolution, allowing cultural behaviours to cumulatively advance over generations. Yet, little is known about individual differences in the use of social and asocial information. We examined w...
