The effects of lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic on fetal movement profiles (2024)
Journal Article
Reissland, N., Ustun, B., & Einbeck, J. (2024). The effects of lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic on fetal movement profiles. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 24(1), 56. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-024-06259-8

Purpose: The current study investigated the direct impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on fetal movements, addressing a critical research gap. While previous research has predominantly examined the effects of lockdown on maternal health and postnatal out...

Potential factors contributing to observed sex differences in virtual-reality-induced sickness. (2024)
Journal Article
Bannigan, G. M., de Sousa, A. A., Scheller, M., Finnegan, D. J., & Proulx, M. J. (2024). Potential factors contributing to observed sex differences in virtual-reality-induced sickness. Experimental Brain Research, 242, 463-475. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-023-06760-0

Virtual reality (VR) technology has been widely adopted for several professional and recreational applications. Despite rapid innovation in hardware and software, one of the long prevailing issues for end users of VR is the experience of VR sickness....

Dyadic inter-group cooperation in shotgun hunting activities in a Congo Basin village. (2024)
Journal Article
Kandza, V. H., Jang, H., Kiabiya Ntamboudila, F., Lew-Levy, S., & Boyette, A. H. (2024). Dyadic inter-group cooperation in shotgun hunting activities in a Congo Basin village. Evolutionary Human Sciences, 6, Article e22. https://doi.org/10.1017/ehs.2024.14

Understanding the dynamics of inter-group cooperation in human adaptation has been the subject of recent empirical and theoretical studies in evolutionary anthropology, beginning to fill gaps in our knowledge of how interactions across political, eco...

The role of the eye region for neural correlates of familiar face recognition: The N250r reveals no evidence for eye-centred face representations (2023)
Journal Article
Quinn, B. P., Popova, T., Green, P. C., Talfourd-Cook, R., & Wiese, H. (2023). The role of the eye region for neural correlates of familiar face recognition: The N250r reveals no evidence for eye-centred face representations. Visual Cognition, 31(7), 501-519. https://doi.org/10.1080/13506285.2024.2315787

Humans recognize familiar faces highly accurately. However, it is unclear precisely what information is stored in the underlying long-term face representations. While some have emphaszsed the importance of the eye region, other evidence has shown tha...

Precision in spatial working memory examined with mouse pointing (2023)
Journal Article
McAteer, S. M., McAteer, S. M., McGregor, A., Smith, D. T., & Smith, D. T. (2024). Precision in spatial working memory examined with mouse pointing. Vision Research, 215, Article 108343. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visres.2023.108343

The capacity of visuospatial working memory (VSWM) is limited. However, there is continued debate surrounding the nature of this capacity limitation. The resource model (Bays et al., 2009) proposes that VSWM capacity is limited by the precision with... Read More about Precision in spatial working memory examined with mouse pointing.
