The effect of survival processing on memory for pictures depends on how memory is tested (2023)
Journal Article
Dewhurst, S. A., Anderson, R. J., O’Connor, R. J., & Dean, G. (in press). The effect of survival processing on memory for pictures depends on how memory is tested. Memory, https://doi.org/10.1080/09658211.2023.2171436

Two experiments investigated the effects of survival processing on memory for pictures of objects. In experiment 1, participants were presented with 32 pictures of common objects and rated them for their relevance to a survival scenario, a moving hom...

Body Form Modulates the Prediction of Human and Artificial Behaviour from Gaze Observation (2023)
Journal Article
Scandola, M., Cross, E. S., Caruana, N., & Tidoni, E. (2023). Body Form Modulates the Prediction of Human and Artificial Behaviour from Gaze Observation. International Journal of Social Robotics, https://doi.org/10.1007/s12369-022-00962-2

The future of human–robot collaboration relies on people’s ability to understand and predict robots' actions. The machine-like appearance of robots, as well as contextual information, may influence people’s ability to anticipate the behaviour of robo...

Temporal distortion for angry faces: Testing visual attention and action preparation accounts (2023)
Journal Article
Tipples, J., Lupton, M., & George, D. (2023). Temporal distortion for angry faces: Testing visual attention and action preparation accounts. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, https://doi.org/10.1177/17470218231172856

When asked to judge the duration of a face people typically overestimate the duration of angry compared with neutral faces. A novel feature of the current research was the inclusion of secondary manipulations designed to distort timing performance na...

The effect of acute itch on the motor evoked potential : an investigation using transcranial magnetic brain stimulation (2022)
Thesis
Page, M. L. The effect of acute itch on the motor evoked potential : an investigation using transcranial magnetic brain stimulation. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4270500

research into the functioning of the brain during itch has revealed significant activity in the motor cortex, however, the role of the motor cortex during itch is not completely known. It is theorised to be involved in the planning of scratching move...

No preconscious attentional bias towards itch in healthy individuals (2022)
Journal Article
Becker, J. M., Holle, H., van Ryckeghem, D. M., Van Damme, S., Crombez, G., Veldhuijzen, D. S., Evers, A. W., Rippe, R. C., & van Laarhoven, A. I. (2022). No preconscious attentional bias towards itch in healthy individuals. PLoS ONE, 17(9), Article e0273581. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0273581

Rapidly attending towards potentially harmful stimuli to prevent possible damage to the body is a critical component of adaptive behavior. Research suggests that individuals display an attentional bias, i.e., preferential allocation of attention, for...

Can contagious itch be affected by positive and negative suggestions? (2022)
Journal Article
Meeuwis, S. H., Skvortsova, A., van Laarhoven, A. I. M., Holle, H., & Evers, A. W. (in press). Can contagious itch be affected by positive and negative suggestions?. Experimental Dermatology, https://doi.org/10.1111/exd.14663

Contagious itch can be evoked by observing people scratching. Verbal suggestions about to-be-received itch can influence itch intensity, as shown by placebo research, but it is unknown whether this extends to contagious itch. The current study aimed...

More than signposting: Findings from an evaluation of a social prescribing service (2022)
Journal Article
White, C., Bell, J., Reid, M., & Dyson, J. (2022). More than signposting: Findings from an evaluation of a social prescribing service. Health and Social Care in the Community, https://doi.org/10.1111/hsc.13925

This paper presents findings from an evaluation of a social prescribing service, undertaken between January 2019 and December 2020. Data was collected through interviews and focus groups with a range of groups including social prescribing managers, l...

Could direct and generative retrieval be two flips of the same coin? A dual-task paradigm study (2022)
Journal Article
Gatti, D., Somos, E., Mazzoni, G., & Jellema, T. (2022). Could direct and generative retrieval be two flips of the same coin? A dual-task paradigm study. Cognitive processing, 23(3), 513-519. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10339-022-01095-0

Autobiographical memories are thought to be retrieved using two possible ways: a generative one, which is effortful and follows a general-to-specific pathway, and a direct one, which is automatic and relatively effortless. These two retrieve processe... Read More about Could direct and generative retrieval be two flips of the same coin? A dual-task paradigm study.

Sensorimotor representation of observed dyadic actions with varying agent involvement: an EEG mu study (2022)
Journal Article
Krol, M. A., & Jellema, T. (2022). Sensorimotor representation of observed dyadic actions with varying agent involvement: an EEG mu study. Cognitive neuroscience, https://doi.org/10.1080/17588928.2022.2084605

Observation of others’ actions activates motor representations in sensorimotor cortex. Although action observation in the real-world often involves multiple agents displaying varying degrees of action involvement, most lab studies on action observati...

Sensorimotor anticipation of others’ actions in real-world and video settings: Modulation by level of engagement? (2022)
Journal Article
Krol, M. A., & Jellema, T. (2022). Sensorimotor anticipation of others’ actions in real-world and video settings: Modulation by level of engagement?. Social Neuroscience, 17(3), 293-304. https://doi.org/10.1080/17470919.2022.2083229

Electroencephalography (EEG) studies investigating social cognition have used both video and real-world stimuli, often without a strong reasoning as to why one or the other was chosen. Video stimuli can be selected for practical reasons, while natura... Read More about Sensorimotor anticipation of others’ actions in real-world and video settings: Modulation by level of engagement?.
