Journal Article
Weis, S., Hodgetts, S., & Hausmann, M. (2019). Sex differences and menstrual cycle effects in cognitive and sensory resting state networks. Brain and Cognition, 131, 66-73. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bandc.2017.09.003

It has not yet been established if resting state (RS) connectivity reflects stable characteristics of the brain, or if it is modulated by the psychological and/or physiological state of the participant. Based on research demonstrating sex hormonal ef... Read More about Sex differences and menstrual cycle effects in cognitive and sensory resting state networks.

Estradiol-related variations in top-down and bottom-up processes of cerebral lateralization (2017)
Journal Article
Hodgetts, S., Weis, S., & Hausmann, M. (2017). Estradiol-related variations in top-down and bottom-up processes of cerebral lateralization. Neuropsychology, 31(3), 319-327. https://doi.org/10.1037/neu0000338

Objective: Natural fluctuations of sex hormones have been shown to modulate cerebral lateralization in dichotic listening tasks. Two recent studies presented contradictory notions regarding the mechanism of this effect. Specifically, whereas Hjelmerv...
