Right fronto-parietal dysfunction underlying spatial attention in bipolar disorder (2013)
Journal Article
Najt, P., Bayer, U., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Right fronto-parietal dysfunction underlying spatial attention in bipolar disorder. Psychiatry Research, 210(2), 479-484. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psychres.2013.07.021

Although the neural underpinning of bipolar disorder (BD) is still unknown, recent research suggests that the right fronto-parietal cortex is particularly affected in BD patients. If this were true, we would expect atypical functional cerebral asymme... Read More about Right fronto-parietal dysfunction underlying spatial attention in bipolar disorder.

Auditory-visual localization in hemianopia (2013)
Journal Article
Lewald, J., Kentridge, R., Peters, S., Tegenthof, M., Heywood, C., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Auditory-visual localization in hemianopia. Neuropsychology, 27(5), 573-582. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0033451

Objective: Beyond visual field defects, patients with hemianopia have been suggested to perceive horizontal visual space in a distorted manner. However, the pattern of these distortions remained debatable. The aim of this study was to estimate the ge... Read More about Auditory-visual localization in hemianopia.

Sex hormonal modulation of interhemispheric transfer time (2013)
Journal Article
Hausmann, M., Hamm, J., Waldie, K., & Kirk, I. (2013). Sex hormonal modulation of interhemispheric transfer time. Neuropsychologia, 51(9), 1734-1741. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2013.05.017

It is still a matter of debate whether functional cerebral asymmetries (FCA) of many cognitive processes are more pronounced in men than in women. Some evidence suggests that the apparent reduction in women's FCA is a result of the fluctuating levels... Read More about Sex hormonal modulation of interhemispheric transfer time.

Effects of oxytocin on women’s aggression depend on state anxiety (2013)
Journal Article
Campbell, A., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Effects of oxytocin on women’s aggression depend on state anxiety. Aggressive Behavior, 39(4), 316-322. https://doi.org/10.1002/ab.21478

Research on oxytocin (OT) indicates that it has stress reducing effects. This leads to opposing predictions of decreased and increased aggression which we examine in this study. Following completion of a state anxiety measure and administration of OT... Read More about Effects of oxytocin on women’s aggression depend on state anxiety.

Effects of sex and age on auditory spatial scene analysis (2013)
Journal Article
Lewald, J., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Effects of sex and age on auditory spatial scene analysis. Hearing Research, 299, 46-52. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.heares.2013.02.005

Recently, it has been demonstrated that men outperform women in spatial analysis of complex auditory scenes (Zündorf et al., 2011). The present study investigated the relation between the effects of ageing and sex on the spatial segregation of concur... Read More about Effects of sex and age on auditory spatial scene analysis.

Emotional prosody modulates attention in schizophrenia patients with hallucinations (2013)
Journal Article
Alba-Ferrara, L., de Erausquin, G., Hirnstein, M., Weis, S., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Emotional prosody modulates attention in schizophrenia patients with hallucinations. Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 7, Article 59. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2013.00059

Recent findings have demonstrated that emotional prosody (EP) attracts attention involuntarily (Grandjean et al., 2008). The automat shift of attention toward emotionally salient stimuli can be overcome by attentional control (Hahn et al., 2010). Att...

Models of hemispheric specialization in facial emotion perception - a reevaluation (2013)
Journal Article
Najt, P., Bayer, U., & Hausmann, M. (2013). Models of hemispheric specialization in facial emotion perception - a reevaluation. Emotion, 13(1), 159-167. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0029723

A considerable amount of research on functional cerebral asymmetries (FCAs) for facial emotion perception has shown conflicting support for three competing models: (i) the Right Hemisphere Hypothesis, (ii) the Valence-Specific Hypothesis, and (iii) t...
