High verbal working memory load impairs gesture-speech integration: Evidence from a dual task paradigm (2021)
Journal Article
Kandana-Arachchige, K. G., Holle, H., Rossignol, M., Loureiro, I. S., & Lefebvre, L. (2021). High verbal working memory load impairs gesture-speech integration: Evidence from a dual task paradigm. Gesture, 20(3), 354-375. https://doi.org/10.1075/gest.20028.kan

While previous studies have shown the importance of visuo-spatial working memory in the processing of co-speech iconic gestures, clear evidence for a potential involvement of the verbal working memory (vWM) is currently lacking. To address this issue... Read More about High verbal working memory load impairs gesture-speech integration: Evidence from a dual task paradigm.

Domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) are sensitive to the correlation between pitch and timbre in human speech (2021)
Journal Article
Sturdy, S., Smith, D. R., & George, D. N. (in press). Domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) are sensitive to the correlation between pitch and timbre in human speech. Animal Cognition, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10071-021-01567-4

The perceived pitch of human voices is highly correlated with the fundamental frequency (f0) of the laryngeal source, which is determined largely by the length and mass of the vocal folds. The vocal folds are larger in adult males than in adult femal... Read More about Domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) are sensitive to the correlation between pitch and timbre in human speech.

Beyond eating disorders: Towards a formulation-based approach (2021)
Journal Article
Reid, M., & Wicksteed, A. (2021). Beyond eating disorders: Towards a formulation-based approach. Clinical Psychology Forum, 2021(343), 9-16

Eating disorders overlap with each other and many other psychological issues. Criteria for the most common diagnosis, OSFED, are quite vague. Addressing eating concerns is salient for many clients who do not have an eating disorder. Perhaps eating ‘i... Read More about Beyond eating disorders: Towards a formulation-based approach.

Language Can Obscure as Well as Facilitate Apparent-Theory of Mind Performance: Part 2—The Case of Dyslexia in Adulthood (2021)
Journal Article
Wright, B. C., & Wright, B. A. L. (2021). Language Can Obscure as Well as Facilitate Apparent-Theory of Mind Performance: Part 2—The Case of Dyslexia in Adulthood. Frontiers in psychology Frontiers Research Foundation, 12, Article 621457. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.621457

Many studies imply causal links between linguistic competencies and Theory of Mind (ToM). But despite Dyslexia being a prime example of linguistic deficits, studies on whether it is related to ToM have been relatively unforthcoming. In the first of 2...

Frontiers in Physiology, 12, Article 652559. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2021.652559

Purpose: Free androgen index (FAI) and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) are independently associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This study aimed to describe the relationship between these two markers and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL...

The focus was on quantifying... Read More about SPOWTT: Improving the Safety and Productivity of Offshore Wind Technician Transit.

Speeding up time: Hierarchical Bayesian drift diffusion modelling evidence for accelerating temporal accumulation (2021)
Journal Article

Time perception is malleable - it can be made to speed up and slow down by various experimental manipulations including the presentation of a sequence of auditory clicks and also angry facial expressions. Recent evidence supports the idea that audito... Read More about Speeding up time: Hierarchical Bayesian drift diffusion modelling evidence for accelerating temporal accumulation.

The Effects of Time Pressure on Temporal Overestimation Due to Threat (2021)

© 2021 Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden. How does emotion change the way we perceive time? Studies have shown that we overestimate the duration of faces that express anger of fear-an effect that has been explained as due the speeding of a pacemaker that...
