A leftward bias however you look at it: revisiting the emotional chimeric face task as a tool for measuring emotion lateralization (2015)
Journal Article
Innes, R., Burt, D., Birch, Y., & Hausmann, M. (2016). A leftward bias however you look at it: revisiting the emotional chimeric face task as a tool for measuring emotion lateralization. Laterality, 21(4-6), 643-661. https://doi.org/10.1080/1357650x.2015.1117095

Left hemiface biases observed within the Emotional Chimeric Face Task (ECFT) support emotional face perception models whereby all expressions are preferentially processed by the right hemisphere. However, previous research using this task has not con...

High estradiol levels improve false memory rates and meta-memory in highly schizotypal women (2015)
Journal Article
Hodgetts, S., Hausmann, M., & Weis, S. (2015). High estradiol levels improve false memory rates and meta-memory in highly schizotypal women. Psychiatry Research, 229(3), 708-714. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psychres.2015.08.016

Overconfidence in false memories is often found in patients with schizophrenia and healthy participants with high levels of schizotypy, indicating an impairment of meta-cognition within the memory domain. In general, cognitive control is suggested to... Read More about High estradiol levels improve false memory rates and meta-memory in highly schizotypal women.

Sex hormones affect language lateralisation but not cognitive control in normally cycling women (2015)
Journal Article
Hodgetts, S., Weis, S., & Hausmann, M. (2015). Sex hormones affect language lateralisation but not cognitive control in normally cycling women. Hormones and Behavior, 74, 194-200. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yhbeh.2015.06.019

Natural fluctuations of sex hormones during the menstrual cycle have been shown to modulate language lateralisation. Using the dichotic listening (DL) paradigm, a well-established measurement of language lateralisation, several studies revealed that...

The neuronal correlates of sex differences in left-right confusion (2015)
Journal Article
Hjelmervik, H., Westerhausen, R., Hirnstein, M., Specht, K., & Hausmann, M. (2015). The neuronal correlates of sex differences in left-right confusion. NeuroImage, 113, 196-206. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2015.02.066

Difficulties in left–right discrimination (LRD) are commonly experienced in everyday life situations. Here we investigate the neurocognitive mechanisms of LRD and the specific role of left angular gyrus. Given that previous behavioral research report...
