The nature of Garner interference: The role of uncertainty, information, and variation in the breakdown in selective attention.
(Elsevier, 2022-01)The popular measure of Garner Interference specifies the detriment to performance with the task-relevant attribute in the presence of a randomly varying distractor. But is irrelevant variation per se responsible for this ... -
NetFACS: Using network science to understand facial communication systems.
(2022-08)Understanding facial signals in humans and other species is crucial for understanding the evolution, complexity, and function of the face as a communication tool. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS) enables researchers ... -
Neural Correlates of Induced Light Experience during Meditation: A Pilot Hyperscanning Study
(NeuroQuantology, 2019-01-07)Certain individuals during deep meditative states can transmitt and give out an aura or ‘light, which is perceived by others through some unknown connections, visual, telepathic or other. Despite various anecdotal, historical ... -
Neural Marker of Habituation at 5 Months of Age Associated with Deferred Imitation Performance at 12 Months: A Longitudinal Study in the UK and The Gambia.
(2022-07-01)Across cultures, imitation provides a crucial route to learning during infancy. However, neural predictors which would enable early identification of infants at risk of suboptimal developmental outcomes are still rare. In ... -

Neurocomputational mechanisms of confidence in self and others.
(Nature Research, 2022-07-22)Computing confidence in one's own and others' decisions is critical for social success. While there has been substantial progress in our understanding of confidence estimates about oneself, little is known about how people ... -

Optimal trans-saccadic integration relies on visual working memory.
(2018-12)Saccadic eye movements alter the visual processing of objects of interest by bringing them from the periphery, where there is only low-resolution vision, to the high-resolution fovea. Evidence suggests that people are able ... -
Oxytocin increases bias, but not accuracy, in face recognition line-ups.
(2015-07)Previous work indicates that intranasal inhalation of oxytocin improves face recognition skills, raising the possibility that it may be used in security settings. However, it is unclear whether oxytocin directly acts upon ... -
Pathfinder: A gamified measure to integrate general cognitive ability into the biological, medical, and behavioural sciences
(Springer Nature [academic journals on nature.com], 2021-10-01)Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have uncovered DNA variants associated with individual differences in general cognitive ability ( g ), but these are far from capturing heritability estimates obtained from twin studies. ...
