Electrophysiological evidence for incremental lexical-semantic integration in auditory compound comprehension (2009)
Journal Article
Koester, D., Holle, H., & Gunter, T. C. (2009). Electrophysiological evidence for incremental lexical-semantic integration in auditory compound comprehension. Neuropsychologia, 47(8-9), 1854-1864. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2009.02.027

The present study investigated the time-course of semantic integration in auditory compound word processing. Compounding is a productive mechanism of word formation that is used frequently in many languages. Specifically, we examined whether semantic...

Word recognition processes modulate the naso-temporal asymmetry of the human visual field (2009)
Journal Article
Lavidor, M., Alexander, T., & McGraw, P. V. (2009). Word recognition processes modulate the naso-temporal asymmetry of the human visual field. Perception, 38(10), 1536-1541. https://doi.org/10.1068/p6078

Many visual tasks display a well-documented naso-temporal asymmetry (NTA), where sensitivity is greater to stimuli presented in the temporal hemifield. Four-letter strings were presented at various eccentricities under monocular vision conditions, an...

Understanding the experience of ambivalence in anorexia nervosa: the maintainer's perspective (2009)
Journal Article
Williams, S., & Reid, M. (2010). Understanding the experience of ambivalence in anorexia nervosa: the maintainer's perspective. Psychology & health, 25(5), 551-567. https://doi.org/10.1080/08870440802617629

People with anorexia often feel ambivalent about whether they wish to maintain it or recover from it. One place where individuals can communicate their experiences of wanting to maintain their anorexia is through pro-anorexia websites. This study inv...

False and veridical collaborative recognition (2009)
Journal Article
Thorley, C., & Dewhurst, S. A. (2009). False and veridical collaborative recognition. Memory, 17(1), 17-25. https://doi.org/10.1080/09658210802484817

Participants studied DRM words lists (Deese, 1959; Roediger McDermott, 1995) and then completed a recognition test individually or in a collaborative pair, trio, or quartet. The collaborative groups' responses were compared to those of equivalent siz... Read More about False and veridical collaborative recognition.

Reduced specificity of autobiographical memory as a moderator of the relationship between daily hassles and depression (2009)
Journal Article
Anderson, R., Goddard, L., & Powell, J. H. (2010). Reduced specificity of autobiographical memory as a moderator of the relationship between daily hassles and depression. Cognition and Emotion, 24(4), 702-709. https://doi.org/10.1080/02699930802598029

Autobiographical memory biases are potential cognitive vulnerability factors for depression, with recent research highlighting the potential importance of accompanying high levels of life stress. Using a prospective design, the current study examined... Read More about Reduced specificity of autobiographical memory as a moderator of the relationship between daily hassles and depression.
