Lack of control enhances accurate and inaccurate identification responses to degraded visual objects (2011)
Journal Article
Vannucci, M., Mazzoni, G., & Cartocci, G. (2011). Lack of control enhances accurate and inaccurate identification responses to degraded visual objects. Psychonomic bulletin & review, 18(3), 524-530. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13423-011-0083-z

Recent studies have shown that lack of control induces illusory pattern perception. In this study, we demonstrate that lacking control also affected identification responses to degraded pictures of visual objects. As compared with control participant...

A gender difference in the false recall of negative words: Women DRM more than men (2011)
Journal Article
Dewhurst, S. A., Anderson, R. J., & Knott, L. M. (2012). A gender difference in the false recall of negative words: Women DRM more than men. Cognition and Emotion, 26(1), 65-74. https://doi.org/10.1080/02699931.2011.553037

Gender differences in susceptibility to associative memory illusions in the Deese/Roediger-McDermott paradigm were investigated using negative and neutral word lists. Women (n=50) and men (n=50) studied 20 lists of 12 words that were associates of a... Read More about A gender difference in the false recall of negative words: Women DRM more than men.

The development of automatic and controlled inhibitory retrieval processes in true and false recall (2011)
Journal Article
Knott, L. M., Howe, M. L., Wimmer, M. C., & Dewhurst, S. A. (2011). The development of automatic and controlled inhibitory retrieval processes in true and false recall. Journal of experimental child psychology, 109(1), 91-108. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2011.01.001

In three experiments, we investigated the role of automatic and controlled inhibitory retrieval processes in true and false memory development in children and adults. Experiment 1 incorporated a directed forgetting task to examine controlled retrieva...

An electrophysiological measure of visual short-term memory capacity within and across hemifields (2011)
Journal Article
Delvenne, J. F., Kaddour, L. A., & Castronovo, J. (2011). An electrophysiological measure of visual short-term memory capacity within and across hemifields. Psychophysiology, 48(3), 333-336. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-8986.2010.01079.x

Recent electrophysiological research has identified a specific contralateral correlate of the contents of visual short-term memory (VSTM). This posterior contralateral delay activity (CDA) persists during the retention period, and its amplitude is mo...

When time stands still: Fear-specific modulation of temporal bias due to threat. (2011)
Journal Article
Tipples, J. (2011). When time stands still: Fear-specific modulation of temporal bias due to threat. Emotion, 11(1), 74-80. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0022015

The current study was designed to test the fear-specific nature of temporal bias due to threat. A temporal bisection procedure was used in which participants (N = 46) were initially trained to recognize short (400 ms) and long (1,600 ms) standard dur...

The development of visual short-term memory for multifeature items during middle childhood (2011)
Journal Article
Riggs, K. J., Simpson, A., & Potts, T. (2011). The development of visual short-term memory for multifeature items during middle childhood. Journal of experimental child psychology, 108(4), 802-809. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2010.11.006

Visual short-term memory (VSTM) research suggests that the adult capacity is limited to three or four multifeature object representations. Despite evidence supporting a developmental increase in capacity, it remains unclear what the unit of capacity...

That's not a real body: identifying stimulus qualities that modulate synaesthetic experiences of touch (2011)
Journal Article
Holle, H., Banissy, M., Wright, T., Bowling, N., & Ward, J. (2011). That's not a real body: identifying stimulus qualities that modulate synaesthetic experiences of touch. Consciousness and cognition, 20(3), 720-726. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.concog.2010.12.002

Mirror-touch synaesthesia is a condition where observing touch to another's body induces a subjective tactile sensation on the synaesthetes body. The present study explores which characteristics of the inducing stimulus modulate the synaesthetic touc...

Under- and Over-Estimation: A Bi-Directional Mapping Process Between Symbolic and Non-Symbolic Representations of Number? (2011)
Journal Article
Crollen, V., Castronovo, J., & Seron, X. (2011). Under- and Over-Estimation: A Bi-Directional Mapping Process Between Symbolic and Non-Symbolic Representations of Number?. Experimental Psychology, 58(1), 39-49. https://doi.org/10.1027/1618-3169/a000064

Over the last 30 years, numerical estimation has been largely studied. Recently, Castronovo and Seron (2007) proposed the bidirectional mapping hypothesis in order to account for the finding that dependent on the type of estimation task (perception v...

Depression and anxiety related subtypes in Parkinson's disease (2011)
Journal Article
Brown, R., Landau, S., Hindle, J., Playfer, J., Samuel, M., Wilson, K., Hurt, C., Anderson, R., Carnell, J., Dickinson, L., Gibson, G., van Schaick, R., Sellwood, K., Thomas, B., Burn, D., & for the PROMS-PD Study Group. (2011). Depression and anxiety related subtypes in Parkinson's disease. Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, 82(7), 803-809. https://doi.org/10.1136/jnnp.2010.213652

Background: Depression and anxiety are common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and although clinically important remain poorly understood and managed. To date, research has tended to treat depression and anxiety as distinct phenomena. There is growing evi... Read More about Depression and anxiety related subtypes in Parkinson's disease.

Impaired conditional task performance in a high schizotypy population: Relation to cognitive deficits (2011)
Journal Article
Haddon, J. E., George, D. N., Grayson, L., McGowan, C., Honey, R. C., & Killcross, S. (2011). Impaired conditional task performance in a high schizotypy population: Relation to cognitive deficits. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 64(1), 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1080/17470218.2010.529579

Cognitive impairments in schizophrenia have been characterized as reflecting a core deficit in the maintenance or use of task-setting cues to mediate appropriate ongoing behaviour. This analysis suggests that cognitive deficits in schizophrenia will... Read More about Impaired conditional task performance in a high schizotypy population: Relation to cognitive deficits.
