Daily emotional dynamics and changes in posttraumatic growth and posttraumatic depreciation among people living with HIV (2023)
Journal Article
Pięta-Lendzion, M., Rzeszutek, M., Tsukayama, E., Blackie, L. E. R., & Gruszczyńska, E. (2024). Daily emotional dynamics and changes in posttraumatic growth and posttraumatic depreciation among people living with HIV. Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 176, Article 111552. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpsychores.2023.111552

Objective

Posttraumatic growth (PTG), and its negative reflection, posttraumatic depreciation (PTD), are two aspects of response to trauma. This study explores whether daily emotional dynamics (inertia and innovation) can translate into positive v...

Mindreading beliefs in same- and cross-neurotype interactions (2023)
Journal Article
Sheppard, E., Webb, S., & Wilkinson, H. (2024). Mindreading beliefs in same- and cross-neurotype interactions. Autism, 28(7), 1828-1837. https://doi.org/10.1177/13623613231211457

A large sample of autistic and non-autistic adults was recruited to investigate whether self-reported beliefs about their own and other people’s mindreading abilities were in line with either mindreading deficit accounts of autism or the double empat...

Effects of childhood trauma on sleep quality and stress-related variables in adulthood: evidence from two multilevel studies (2023)
Journal Article
O’Connor, D. B., Branley-Bell, D., Green, J. A., Ferguson, E., O’Carroll, R. E., & O’Connor, R. C. (2023). Effects of childhood trauma on sleep quality and stress-related variables in adulthood: evidence from two multilevel studies. Psychology and Health, https://doi.org/10.1080/08870446.2023.2281712

Childhood trauma has been found to have serious negative consequences for mental and physical health. However, the precise mechanisms through which trauma influences health outcomes are unclear. Childhood trauma-related disruptions to sleep in adulth...

Do young people who self-harm experience cognitions and emotions related to post-traumatic growth? (2023)
Journal Article
Murray, A., Wadman, R., & Townsend, E. (2024). Do young people who self-harm experience cognitions and emotions related to post-traumatic growth?. Journal of Affective Disorders Reports, 15, Article 100683. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jadr.2023.100683

Background: Adolescent self-harm is a vast public health concern with self-harm rates increasing each year. Looked-after adolescents are a group at increased risk of self-harm owing to adverse life-events and attachment issues, giving rise to difficu...

Rare and extreme outcomes in risky choice (2023)
Journal Article
Mason, A., Ludvig, E. A., Spetch, M. L., & Madan, C. R. (2024). Rare and extreme outcomes in risky choice. Psychonomic Bulletin and Review, 31, 1301-1308. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13423-023-02415-x

Many real-world decisions involving rare events also involve extreme outcomes. Despite this confluence, decisions-from-experience research has only examined the impact of rarity and extremity in isolation. With rare events, people typically choose as...

Assessing the influence of affective attitudes, demography and blood donor status on organ donor registration active decisions in opt-out systems (2023)
Journal Article
Shepherd, L., O'Carroll, R., & Ferguson, E. (2024). Assessing the influence of affective attitudes, demography and blood donor status on organ donor registration active decisions in opt-out systems. Journal of Health Psychology, 29(8), 825-835. https://doi.org/10.1177/13591053231208531

In contrast to opt-in systems, relatively little is known about what influences whether or not people register a decision about organ donation in opt-out systems. We address this gap in the literature. Participants (N = 756) living in a country with...

Event probabilities have a different impact on early and late electroencephalographic measures regarded as metrics of prediction (2023)
Journal Article
Saurels, B. W., Johnston, A., Yarrow, K., & Arnold, D. H. (2024). Event probabilities have a different impact on early and late electroencephalographic measures regarded as metrics of prediction. Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 36(1), 187-199. https://doi.org/10.1162/jocn_a_02076

The oddball protocol has been used to study the neural and perceptual consequences of implicit predictions in the human brain. The protocol involves presenting a sequence of identical repeated events that are eventually broken by a novel "oddball" pr...

How do explicit, implicit, and sociodemographic measures relate to concurrent suicidal ideation? A comparative machine learning approach (2023)
Journal Article
Freichel, R., Kahveci, S., & O’Shea, B. (2024). How do explicit, implicit, and sociodemographic measures relate to concurrent suicidal ideation? A comparative machine learning approach. Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, 54(1), 49-60. https://doi.org/10.1111/sltb.13017

Introduction: Suicide is a leading cause of death, and decades of research have identified a range of risk factors, including demographics, past self‐injury and suicide attempts, and explicit suicide cognitions. More recently, implicit self‐harm and... Read More about How do explicit, implicit, and sociodemographic measures relate to concurrent suicidal ideation? A comparative machine learning approach.

Higher level domain specific skills in mathematics; The relationship between algebra, geometry, executive function skills and mathematics achievement (2023)
Journal Article
Spiller, J., Clayton, S., Cragg, L., Johnson, S., Simms, V., & Gilmore, C. (2023). Higher level domain specific skills in mathematics; The relationship between algebra, geometry, executive function skills and mathematics achievement. PLoS ONE, 18(11), Article e0291796. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0291796

Algebra and geometry are important components of mathematics that are often considered gatekeepers for future success. However, most studies that have researched the cognitive skills required for success in mathematics have only considered the domain...
