Menstrual cycle, pregnancy and oral contraceptive use alter attraction to apparent health in faces (2005)
Journal Article
Jones, B., Perrett, D., Little, A., Boothroyd, L., Cornwell, R., Feinberg, D., …Moore, F. (2005). Menstrual cycle, pregnancy and oral contraceptive use alter attraction to apparent health in faces. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 272(1561), 347-354. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2004.2962

Previous studies demonstrating changes in women's face preferences have emphasized increased attraction to cues to possible indirect benefits (e.g. heritable immunity to infection) that coincides with periods of high fertility (e.g. the late follicul...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left human frontal eye fields eliminates the cost of invalid endogenous cues (2005)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Jackson, S., & Rorden, C. (2005). Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left human frontal eye fields eliminates the cost of invalid endogenous cues. Neuropsychologia, 43(9), 1288-1296. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2004.12.003

Humans are able to selectively attend to specific regions of space without moving their eyes. However, there is mounting evidence that these covert shifts of attention may employ many of the same brain regions involved when executing the eye movement...

Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle (2005)
Journal Article
Hausmann, M. (2005). Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle. Neuropsychologia, 43(11), 1559-1567. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2005.01.017

Functional cerebral asymmetries (FCAs) are known to fluctuate across the menstrual cycle. The mechanisms of these sex hormonal modulations are poorly understood. It has been suggested that gonadal steroid hormones might suppress or specifically activ... Read More about Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle.

Private speech on an executive task: Relations with task difficulty and task performance (2005)
Journal Article
Fernyhough, C., & Fradley, E. (2005). Private speech on an executive task: Relations with task difficulty and task performance. Cognitive Development, 20(1), 103-120. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cogdev.2004.11.002

Measures of private speech and task performance were obtained for a sample of 46 5- and 6-year-olds engaged on a mechanical version of the Tower of London (ToL) task. Two different sets of four puzzles of increasing difficulty were attempted on two o... Read More about Private speech on an executive task: Relations with task difficulty and task performance.

Smoothing region boundaries in variable depth mapping for real time stereoscopic images (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Holliman, N. (2005, January). Smoothing region boundaries in variable depth mapping for real time stereoscopic images. Presented at Stereoscopic Displays and Virtual Reality Systems XII., San Jose, Calif

We believe the need for stereoscopic image generation methods that allow simple, high quality content creation continues to be a key problem limiting the widespread up-take of 3D displays. We present new algorithms for creating real time stereoscopic... Read More about Smoothing region boundaries in variable depth mapping for real time stereoscopic images.

The role of V5/MT+ in the control of catching movements: an rTMS study (2005)
Journal Article
Schenk, T., Ellison, A., Rice, N., & Milner, A. (2005). The role of V5/MT+ in the control of catching movements: an rTMS study. Neuropsychologia, 43(2), 189-198. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2004.11.006

Milner and Goodale [Milner, A. D., & Goodale, M. A. (1995). The visual brain in action. Oxford: Oxford University Press] described a model which distinguishes between two visual streams in the brain. It is claimed that the ventral stream serves objec... Read More about The role of V5/MT+ in the control of catching movements: an rTMS study.

Are the perceptual biases found in chimeric face processing reflected in eye-movement patterns? (2005)
Journal Article
Butler, S., Gilchrist, I., Burt, D., Perrett, D., Jones, E., & Harvey, M. (2005). Are the perceptual biases found in chimeric face processing reflected in eye-movement patterns?. Neuropsychologia, 43(1), 52-59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2004.06.005

Studies of patients with focal brain lesions and neuroimaging indicate that face processing is predominantly based on right hemisphere function. Additionally, experiments using chimeric faces, where the left and the right-hand side of the face are di...
