Spectral estimation for detecting low-dimensional structure in networks using arbitrary null models (2021)
Journal Article
Humphries, M. D., Caballero, J. A., Evans, M., Maggi, S., & Singh, A. (2021). Spectral estimation for detecting low-dimensional structure in networks using arbitrary null models. PLoS ONE, 16(7), Article e0254057. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0254057

Discovering low-dimensional structure in real-world networks requires a suitable null model that defines the absence of meaningful structure. Here we introduce a spectral approach for detecting a network's low-dimensional structure, and the nodes tha...

‘Look not at what is contrary to propriety’: A meta-analytic exploration of the association between religiosity and sensitivity to disgust (2021)
Journal Article
Yu, Z., Bali, P., Tsikandilakis, M., & Tong, E. M. W. (2022). ‘Look not at what is contrary to propriety’: A meta-analytic exploration of the association between religiosity and sensitivity to disgust. British Journal of Social Psychology, 61(1), 276-299. https://doi.org/10.1111/bjso.12479

Previous research has suggested that disgust sensitivity contributes to moral self-regulation. The relationship between religiosity and disgust sensitivity is frequently explored as a moderator of moral-regulating ideologies, such as conservative and...

Online representations of non-canonical sentences are more than good-enough (2021)
Journal Article
Cutter, M. G., Paterson, K. B., & Filik, R. (2022). Online representations of non-canonical sentences are more than good-enough. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 75(1), 30-42. https://doi.org/10.1177/17470218211032043

Proponents of good-enough processing suggest that readers often (mis)interpret certain sentences using fast-and-frugal heuristics, such that for non-canonical sentences (e.g., The dog was bitten by the man) people confuse the thematic roles of the no...

Speech planning and execution in children who stutter: Preliminary findings from a fNIRS investigation (2021)
Journal Article
Jackson, E. S., Wijeakumar, S., Beal, D. S., Brown, B., Zebrowski, P. M., & Spencer, J. P. (2021). Speech planning and execution in children who stutter: Preliminary findings from a fNIRS investigation. Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 91, 32-42. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jocn.2021.06.018

Few studies have investigated the neural mechanisms underlying speech production in children who stutter (CWS), despite the critical importance of understanding these mechanisms closer to the time of stuttering onset. The relative contributions of sp... Read More about Speech planning and execution in children who stutter: Preliminary findings from a fNIRS investigation.

Central Aspects of Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis (CAP-RA): protocol for a prospective observational study (2021)
Journal Article
Ifesemen, O., McWilliams, D. F., Ferguson, E., Wakefield, R., Akin-Akinyosoye, K., Wilson, D., …Walsh, D. A. (2021). Central Aspects of Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis (CAP-RA): protocol for a prospective observational study. BMC Rheumatology, 5(1), Article 23. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41927-021-00187-2

Background: Pain and fatigue are persistent problems in people with rheumatoid arthritis. Central sensitisation (CS) may contribute to pain and fatigue, even when treatment has controlled inflammatory disease. This study aims to validate a self-repor...

Exploring the Facets of Emotional Episodic Memory: Remembering 'What', 'When', and 'Which' (2021)
Journal Article
Palombo, D. J., Te, A. A., Checknita, K. J., & Madan, C. R. (2021). Exploring the Facets of Emotional Episodic Memory: Remembering 'What', 'When', and 'Which'. Psychological Science, 32(7), 1104-1114. https://doi.org/10.1177/0956797621991548

Our memories can differ in quality from one event to the next and emotion is one important explanatory factor. Still, the manner in which emotion impacts episodic memory is complex: Whereas emotion enhances some aspects of episodic memory—particularl...

Same data, different conclusions: Radical dispersion in empirical results when independent analysts operationalize and test the same hypothesis (2021)
Journal Article
Schweinsberg, M., Feldman, M., Staub, N., van den Akker, O. R., van Aert, R. C., Van Assen, M. A. L. M., …Madan, C. R. (2021). Same data, different conclusions: Radical dispersion in empirical results when independent analysts operationalize and test the same hypothesis. Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 165, 228-249. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.obhdp.2021.02.003

In this crowdsourced initiative, independent analysts used the same dataset to test two hypotheses regarding the effects of scientists’ gender and professional status on verbosity during group meetings. Not only the analytic approach but also the ope...

Strong and weak principles of neural dimension reduction (2021)
Journal Article
Humphries, M. D. (2021). Strong and weak principles of neural dimension reduction. Neurons, Behavior, Data Analysis, and Theory, 5(2), https://doi.org/10.51628/001c.24619

If spikes are the medium, what is the message? Answering that question is driving the development of large-scale, single neuron resolution recordings from behaving animals, on the scale of thousands of neurons. But these data are inherently high-dime... Read More about Strong and weak principles of neural dimension reduction.

When and why do people experience flight shame? (2021)
Journal Article
Doran, R., Pallesen, S., Böhm, G., & Ogunbode, C. A. (2022). When and why do people experience flight shame?. Annals of Tourism Research, 92, Article 103254. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.annals.2021.103254

Investigates individual reports of flight shame in different travel situations. Flight shame was more pronounced when going on holiday, than for visiting family and friends, or travelling for work. Flight shame was consistently associated with person... Read More about When and why do people experience flight shame?.
