Assessing medical mistrust in organ donation across countries using item response theory (2021)
Journal Article
Ghoshal, A., O’Carroll, R. E., Ferguson, E., Shepherd, L., Doherty, S., Mathew, M., …Doyle, F. (2022). Assessing medical mistrust in organ donation across countries using item response theory. Journal of Health Psychology, 27(12), 2806-2819. https://doi.org/10.1177/13591053211064985

Although medical mistrust (MM) may be an impediment to public health interventions, no MM scale has been validated across countries and the assessment of MM has not been explored using item response theory, which allows generalisation beyond the samp...

Cost, context, or convenience? Exploring the social acceptance of demand response in the United Kingdom (2021)
Journal Article
Naghiyev, E., Shipman, R., Goulden, M., Gillott, M., & Spence, A. (2022). Cost, context, or convenience? Exploring the social acceptance of demand response in the United Kingdom. Energy Research and Social Science, 87, Article 102469. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2021.102469

The energy sector, and buildings in particular, are one of the main contributors to climate change. Demand-Side Management (DSM) has the potential to realise energy savings on the demand as well as the supply side. However, the domestic sector still... Read More about Cost, context, or convenience? Exploring the social acceptance of demand response in the United Kingdom.

Bayesian Mapping of the Striatal Microcircuit Reveals Robust Asymmetries in the Probabilities and Distances of Connections (2021)
Journal Article
Cinotti, F., & Humphries, M. D. (2022). Bayesian Mapping of the Striatal Microcircuit Reveals Robust Asymmetries in the Probabilities and Distances of Connections. Journal of Neuroscience, 42(8), 1417-1435. https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.1487-21.2021

The striatum’s complex microcircuit is made by connections within and between its D1- and D2-receptor expressing projection neurons and at least five species of interneuron. Precise knowledge of this circuit is likely essential to understanding stria...

Disentangling age and schooling effects on inhibitory control development: An fNIRS investigation (2021)
Journal Article
McKay, C., Wijeakumar, S., Rafetseder, E., & Shing, Y. L. (2022). Disentangling age and schooling effects on inhibitory control development: An fNIRS investigation. Developmental Science, 25(5), Article e13205. https://doi.org/10.1111/desc.13205

Children show marked improvements in executive functioning (EF) between 4 and 7years of age. In many societies, this time period coincides with the start of formal school education, in which children are required to follow rules in a structured envir...

Frontal neural metabolite changes in schizophrenia and their association with cognitive control: A systematic review (2021)
Journal Article
Dixon, B. J., Kumar, J., & Danielmeier, C. (2022). Frontal neural metabolite changes in schizophrenia and their association with cognitive control: A systematic review. Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 132, 224-247. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2021.11.010

A large proportion of patients with schizophrenia exhibit deficits in cognitive control functions including working memory, processing speed and inhibitory control, which have been associated with frontal brain areas. In this systematic review, we in... Read More about Frontal neural metabolite changes in schizophrenia and their association with cognitive control: A systematic review.

Post-traumatic growth in psychosis: a systematic review and narrative synthesis (2021)
Journal Article
Ng, F., Ibrahim, N., Franklin, D., Jordan, G., Lewandowski, F., Fang, F., …Slade, M. (2021). Post-traumatic growth in psychosis: a systematic review and narrative synthesis. BMC Psychiatry, 21, Article 607. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-021-03614-3

Background and objective: People with psychosis report experiences of highly traumatic events. Positive change or post-traumatic growth (PTG) can occur as a result of traumatic experiences. Yet there is limited attention on PTG in psychosis, possibly... Read More about Post-traumatic growth in psychosis: a systematic review and narrative synthesis.

Investigating cognitive factors and diagnostic error in a presentation of complicated multisystem disease (2021)
Journal Article
Thompson, B., Madan, C. R., & Patel, R. (2022). Investigating cognitive factors and diagnostic error in a presentation of complicated multisystem disease. Diagnosis, 9(2), 199-206. https://doi.org/10.1515/dx-2021-0072

Objectives: To use a case review approach for investigating the types of cognitive error identifiable following a complicated patient admission with a multisystem disorder in an acute care setting where diagnosis was difficult and delayed. Methods: A... Read More about Investigating cognitive factors and diagnostic error in a presentation of complicated multisystem disease.

Gaze correlates of view preference: Comparing natural and urban scenes (2021)
Journal Article
Batool, A., Rutherford, P., McGraw, P., Ledgeway, T., & Altomonte, S. (2022). Gaze correlates of view preference: Comparing natural and urban scenes. Lighting Research and Technology, 54(6), 576-594. https://doi.org/10.1177/14771535211055703

When looking out of a window, natural views are usually associated with restorative qualities and are given a higher preference than urban scenes. Previous research has shown that gaze behaviour might differ based on the natural or urban content of v... Read More about Gaze correlates of view preference: Comparing natural and urban scenes.

The digital workplace and its dark side: An integrative review (2021)
Journal Article
Marsh, E., Vallejos, E. P., & Spence, A. (2022). The digital workplace and its dark side: An integrative review. Computers in Human Behavior, 128, Article 107118. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chb.2021.107118

An intensification of digital working driven by Covid-19 has brought into sharp focus both the beneficial nature of digital workplace technologies and their potential dark side. Research has burgeoned in this area in recent years, but an integrated v... Read More about The digital workplace and its dark side: An integrative review.
