Is social inhibition of return due to action co-representation? (2014)
Journal Article
Atkinson, M. A., Simpson, A., Skarratt, P., & Cole, G. G. (2014). Is social inhibition of return due to action co-representation?. Acta Psychologica, 150, 85-93. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actpsy.2014.04.003

When two individuals alternate reaching responses to visual targets presented on a shared workspace, one individual is slower to respond to targets occupying the same position as their partner’s previous response. This phenomenon is thought to be due... Read More about Is social inhibition of return due to action co-representation?.

Exogenous spatial precuing reliably modulates object processing but not object substitution masking (2014)
Journal Article
Pilling, M., Gellatly, A., Argyropoulos, Y., & Skarratt, P. (2014). Exogenous spatial precuing reliably modulates object processing but not object substitution masking. Attention, Perception, and Psychophysics, 76(6), 1560-1576. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13414-014-0661-z

Object substitution masking (OSM) is used in behavioral and imaging studies to investigate processes associated with the formation of a conscious percept. Reportedly, OSM occurs only when visual attention is diffusely spread over a search display or...

Looming motion primes the visuomotor system (2014)
Journal Article
Skarratt, P. A., Gellatly, A. R. H., Cole, G. G., Pilling, M., & Hulleman, J. (2014). Looming motion primes the visuomotor system. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 40(2), 566-579. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0034456

A wealth of evidence now shows that human and animal observers display greater sensitivity to objects that move toward them than to objects that remain static or move away. Increased sensitivity in humans is often evidenced by reaction times that inc... Read More about Looming motion primes the visuomotor system.
