Speeding up time: Hierarchical Bayesian drift diffusion modelling evidence for accelerating temporal accumulation (2021)
Journal Article
Tipples, J., Lupton, M., & George, D. (2021). Speeding up time: Hierarchical Bayesian drift diffusion modelling evidence for accelerating temporal accumulation. Timing and Time Perception, 9(4), 393-416. https://doi.org/10.1163/22134468-bja10030

Time perception is malleable - it can be made to speed up and slow down by various experimental manipulations including the presentation of a sequence of auditory clicks and also angry facial expressions. Recent evidence supports the idea that audito... Read More about Speeding up time: Hierarchical Bayesian drift diffusion modelling evidence for accelerating temporal accumulation.

The Effects of Time Pressure on Temporal Overestimation Due to Threat (2021)
Journal Article
Tipples, J., Lupton, M., & George, D. (2021). The Effects of Time Pressure on Temporal Overestimation Due to Threat. Timing and Time Perception, 149, 1-14. https://doi.org/10.1163/22134468-bja10027

© 2021 Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden. How does emotion change the way we perceive time? Studies have shown that we overestimate the duration of faces that express anger of fear-an effect that has been explained as due the speeding of a pacemaker that...

Preexposure along a continuum: Differentiation and association. (2021)
Journal Article
George, D. N., & Haddon, J. E. (2021). Preexposure along a continuum: Differentiation and association. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 47(1), 48-62. https://doi.org/10.1037/xan0000266

In 5 experiments, we assessed the effects of preexposure to simple auditory stimuli on subsequent conditioning and discrimination learning. Experiment 1 showed that preexposure to a single stimulus retarded acquisition of conditioned responding to th... Read More about Preexposure along a continuum: Differentiation and association..

Studying animal innovation at the individual level: A ratings-based assessment in capuchin monkeys (Sapajus [Cebus] sp.). (2021)
Journal Article
Morton, F. B., Buchanan-Smith, H. M., Brosnan, S. F., Thierry, B., Paukner, A., Essler, J. L., Marcum, C. S., & Lee, P. C. (2021). Studying animal innovation at the individual level: A ratings-based assessment in capuchin monkeys (Sapajus [Cebus] sp.). Journal of Comparative Psychology, 135(2), 258-265. https://doi.org/10.1037/com0000264

Large-scale studies of individual differences in innovative behavior among nonhuman animals are rare because of logistical difficulties associated with obtaining observational data on a large number of innovative individuals across multiple locations...

Personality structure in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). (2021)
Journal Article
Morton, F. B., Robinson, L. M., Brando, S., & Weiss, A. (2021). Personality structure in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). Journal of Comparative Psychology, 135(2), 219-231. https://doi.org/10.1037/com0000259

Comparative studies can help identify selective pressures that contributed to species differences in the number and composition of personality domains. Despite being adapted to an aquatic lifestyle and last sharing a common ancestor with primates som... Read More about Personality structure in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus)..

Contextual positivity-familiarity effects are unaffected by known moderators of misattribution (2020)
Journal Article
Weil, R., Palma, T. A., & Gawronski, B. (in press). Contextual positivity-familiarity effects are unaffected by known moderators of misattribution. Cognition and Emotion, 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1080/02699931.2020.1858029

The positivity-familiarity effect refers to the phenomenon that positive affect increases the likelihood that people judge a stimulus as familiar. Drawing on the assumption that positivity-familiarity effects result from a common misattribution mecha...

Do wild raccoons (Procyon lotor) use tools? (2020)
Journal Article
Morton, F. B. (2020). Do wild raccoons (Procyon lotor) use tools?. Animal Cognition, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10071-020-01430-y

Being able to make and use tools was once considered to be an evolutionary hallmark of our species, but has since been documented in other animals. However, for reasons that remain unclear, not all species naturally use tools. Racoons (Procyon lotor)... Read More about Do wild raccoons (Procyon lotor) use tools?.

Schizotypy but not Cannabis Use Modestly Predicts Psychotogenic Experiences: A Cross-Sectional Study Using the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (O-LIFE) (2020)
Journal Article
Airey, N. D., Hammersley, R., & Reid, M. (2020). Schizotypy but not Cannabis Use Modestly Predicts Psychotogenic Experiences: A Cross-Sectional Study Using the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (O-LIFE). Journal of Addiction, 2020, Article 5961275. https://doi.org/10.1155/2020/5961275

Objective. Cannabis use predicts psychosis in longitudinal studies, but it is difficult to infer causation. Some precursor variables predict both, including childhood trauma and adversity. Additionally, some of the desired effects of cannabis use res...

Journal of Hospital Infection, 106(4), 812-819. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhin.2020.09.016

Background: Currently no national standards exist for the prevention of surgical site infection (SSI) in cardiac surgery. SSI rates range from 1% to 8% between centres. Aim: The aim of this study was to explore and characterize variation in approache...
