Rethinking egocentric bias: A computer mouse-tracking study of adult belief processing (2023)
Journal Article
O'Connor, R. J., Lucas, A., & Riggs, K. J. (2024). Rethinking egocentric bias: A computer mouse-tracking study of adult belief processing. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 153(2), 307-327. https://doi.org/10.1037/xge0001485

Several theories of belief processing assume that processing another's false belief requires overcoming an egocentric bias toward one's current knowledge. The current evidence in support of this claim, however, is limited. In order to investigate the...

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...

Decision times in orthographic processing: a cross-linguistic study (2023)
Journal Article
Mauti, M., Marinelli, C. V., O’Connor, R. J., Zoccolotti, P., & Martelli, M. (2023). Decision times in orthographic processing: a cross-linguistic study. Experimental Brain Research, 241, 585–599. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-022-06542-0

Reading comparisons across transparent and opaque orthographies indicate critical differences that may reveal the mechanisms involved in orthographic decoding across orthographies. Here, we address the role of criterion and speed of processing in acc... Read More about Decision times in orthographic processing: a cross-linguistic study.
