Simplistically, words are the mental bundling of a form and a referent. However, words also dynamically interact with one another in the cognitive system, and have other so-called ‘lexical properties’. For example, the word ‘dog’ will cue recognition...

Previous research by Mewborn et al. (2015) investigating the link between Critical Flicker Fusion Threshold (CFFT) and higher-order cognitive functions found a significant correlation between CFFT and executive function, as measured by scores from th...

The current PhD project focuses on the integration of gesture with their co-occurring speech with the use of non-invasive brain stimulation. The project investigated ‘where’ and ‘when’ gesture-speech integration takes place. Building on the paradigm...

2 Abstract This thesis explored the behavioural and neural processes associated with the effect of sympathy and anger on socio-economic decision-making. Experiment 1 showed the defection rate decrease in sympathy and increase in anger compared to th... Read More about Anatomical and behavioural correlates of emotion-induced social decision-making.
