Visual Attention to Dynamic Emotional Faces in Adults on the Autism Spectrum (2023)
Journal Article
Macinska, S., Lindsay, S., & Jellema, T. (2023). Visual Attention to Dynamic Emotional Faces in Adults on the Autism Spectrum. Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-023-05979-8

Using eye-tracking, we studied allocation of attention to faces where the emotional expression and eye-gaze dynamically changed in an ecologically-valid manner. We tested typically-developed (TD) adults low or high in autistic-like traits (Experiment... Read More about Visual Attention to Dynamic Emotional Faces in Adults on the Autism Spectrum.

Plasticity of categories in speech perception and production (2022)
Journal Article
Lindsay, S., Clayards, M., Gennari, S., & Gaskell, M. G. (2022). Plasticity of categories in speech perception and production. Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, https://doi.org/10.1080/23273798.2021.2018471

While perceptual categories exhibit plasticity following recently heard speech, evidence of effects on production has been mixed. We tested the influences of perceptual plasticity on production with an implicit distributional learning paradigm. In Ex...

Semantic interpretability does not influence masked priming effects (2019)
Journal Article
Tseng, H., Lindsay, S., & Davis, C. J. (2020). Semantic interpretability does not influence masked priming effects. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 73(6), 856-867. https://doi.org/10.1177/1747021819896766

Much of the recent masked nonword priming literature demonstrates no difference in priming between affixed and non-affixed nonword primes (e.g., maskity-MASK vs. maskond-MASK). A possible explanation for the absence of a difference is that studies ha... Read More about Semantic interpretability does not influence masked priming effects.

Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces (2017)
Journal Article
Cairney, S. A., Lindsay, S., Paller, K. A., & Gaskell, M. G. (2018). Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces. Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 99, 39-44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2017.10.005

Retrieval facilitates the long-term retention of memories, but may also enable stored representations to be updated with new information that is available at the time of retrieval. However, if information integrated during retrieval is erroneous, fut... Read More about Sleep preserves original and distorted memory traces.

Mechanisms of memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep : memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep (2017)
Journal Article

Study Objectives: Memories are strengthened during sleep. The benefits of sleep for memory can be enhanced by re-exposing the sleeping brain to auditory cues; a technique known as targeted memory reactivation (TMR). Prior studies have not assessed th...

Event processing in the visual world: Projected motion paths during spoken sentence comprehension (2016)
Journal Article
Lindsay, S., Kamide, Y., Kukona, A., & Scheepers, C. (2016). Event processing in the visual world: Projected motion paths during spoken sentence comprehension. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 42(5), 804-812. https://doi.org/10.1037/xlm0000199

Motion events in language describe the movement of an entity to another location along a path. In two eye-tracking experiments we found that comprehension of motion events involves the online construction of a spatial mental model that integrates lan...

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.

A prerequisite to L1 homophone effects in L2 spoken-word recognition (2014)
Journal Article

© The Author(s) 2014. When both members of a phonemic contrast in L2 (second language) are perceptually mapped to a single phoneme in one’s L1 (first language), L2 words containing a member of that contrast can spuriously activate L2 words in spoken-...

Sleep underpins the plasticity of language production (2014)
Journal Article
Gaskell, M. G., Warker, J., Lindsay, S., Frost, R., Guest, J., Snowdon, R., & Stackhouse, A. (2014). Sleep underpins the plasticity of language production. Psychological science : a journal of the American Psychological Society / APS, 25(7), 1457-1465. https://doi.org/10.1177/0956797614535937

The constraints that govern acceptable phoneme combinations in speech perception and production have considerable plasticity. We addressed whether sleep influences the acquisition of new constraints and their integration into the speech-production sy... Read More about Sleep underpins the plasticity of language production.

The selective role of premotor cortex in speech perception: A contribution to phoneme judgements but not speech comprehension (2013)
Journal Article
Krieger-Redwood, K., Gareth Gaskell, M., Lindsay, S., & Jefferies, E. (2013). The selective role of premotor cortex in speech perception: A contribution to phoneme judgements but not speech comprehension. Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 25(12), 2179-2188. https://doi.org/10.1162/jocn_a_00463

Several accounts of speech perception propose that the areas involved in producing language are also involved in perceiving it. In line with this view, neuroimaging studies show activation of premotor cortex (PMC) during phoneme judgment tasks; howev...

Lexical integration of novel words without sleep (2013)
Journal Article

Learning a new word involves integration with existing lexical knowledge. Previous work has shown that sleep-associated memory consolidation processes are important for the engagement of novel items in lexical competition. In 3 experiments we used sp...

To Dash or to Dawdle: Verb-Associated Speed of Motion Influences Eye Movements during Spoken Sentence Comprehension (2013)
Journal Article

In describing motion events verbs of manner provide information about the speed of agents or objects in those events. We used eye tracking to investigate how inferences about this verb-associated speed of motion would influence the time course of att...

Two experiments addressed how novel verbs come to be represented in the auditory input lexicon, and how the inflected forms of such novel words are acquired and recognised. Participants were introduced to new spoken forms as uninflected verbs. These... Read More about Acquiring novel words and their past tenses: Evidence from lexical effects on phonetic categorisation.
