At the boundaries of misattribution: does positivity influence judgments of familiarity in the affect misattribution procedure? (2017)
Journal Article
Weil, R., Palma, T. A. C., & Gawronski, B. (2017). At the boundaries of misattribution: does positivity influence judgments of familiarity in the affect misattribution procedure?. Experimental Psychology, 64(6), 369-386. https://doi.org/10.1027/1618-3169/a000379

Priming effects in the Affect Misattribution Procedure (AMP) have been explained by a misattribution of prime-related affect to neutral targets. However, the measure has been criticized for being susceptible to intentional use of prime features in ju...

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the factors associated with patients’ negative therapy ex... Read More about Risk factors for negative experiences during psychotherapy.

A brighter future : the effect of positive episodic simulation on future predictions in non-depressed, moderately dysphoric & highly dysphoric individuals (2017)
Journal Article
Boland, J., Riggs, K. J., & Anderson, R. J. (2018). A brighter future : the effect of positive episodic simulation on future predictions in non-depressed, moderately dysphoric & highly dysphoric individuals. Behaviour Research and Therapy, 100, 7-16. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brat.2017.10.010

Previous research suggests depressed individuals have difficulties with future directed cognitions. For instance, compared with non-depressed individuals, they predict positive events are less likely to occur. Recent work suggests that episodic simul...

Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces (2017)
Journal Article
Cairney, S. A., Lindsay, S., Paller, K. A., & Gaskell, M. G. (2018). Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces. Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 99, 39-44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2017.10.005

Retrieval facilitates the long-term retention of memories, but may also enable stored representations to be updated with new information that is available at the time of retrieval. However, if information integrated during retrieval is erroneous, fut... Read More about Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces.

Cognitive correlates of pragmatic language comprehension in adult traumatic brain injury: A systematic review and meta-analyses (2017)
Journal Article

Fine motor control underlies the association between response inhibition and drawing skill in early development (2017)
Journal Article
