Rapid temporal accumulation in spider fear: Evidence from hierarchical drift diffusion modelling. (2015)

Fear can distort our sense of time – making time seem slow or even stand still. Here, I used Hierarchical Drift Diffusion Modelling (HDDM; Vandekerckhove, Tuerlinckx, & Lee, 2008, 2011; Wiecki, Sofer, & Frank, 2013) to test the idea that temporal acc...

Health Technology Assessment, 19(18), 1-120. https://doi.org/10.3310/hta19180

Background: Mental health problems account for almost half of all ill health in people under 65 years. The majority are non-psychotic (e.g. depression, anxiety and phobias). For some people, art therapy may provide more profound and long-lasting heal...

Markers of automaticity in sleep-associated consolidation of novel words (2015)
Journal Article

Two experiments investigated effects of sleep on consolidation and integration of novel form-meaning mappings using size congruity and semantic distance paradigms. Both paradigms have been used in previous studies to measure automatic access to word... Read More about Markers of automaticity in sleep-associated consolidation of novel words.

We compared short- and long-term retention of fast mapped color, shape and texture words as well as object labels. In an exposure session, 354 3- and 4-year-old children were shown a set of two familiar and three novel stimuli. One of the novel stimu...
