Evaluating the effectiveness of a board game to learn biological psychology facts (2023)
Journal Article

Using games in a classroom setting to help engagement and learning is becoming popular, but controlled investigations into the benefits of games are few. Games are potentially a way to incorporate retrieval practice into a class and garner subsequent... Read More about Evaluating the effectiveness of a board game to learn biological psychology facts.

Excitotoxic lesions of the perirhinal cortex leave intact rats’ gustatory sensory preconditioning (2021)
Journal Article

We report findings from two sensory preconditioning experiments in which rats consumed two flavoured solutions, each with two gustatory components (AX and BY), composed of sweet, bitter, salt, and acid elements. After this pre-exposure, rats were con... Read More about Excitotoxic lesions of the perirhinal cortex leave intact rats’ gustatory sensory preconditioning.

Modeling Holistic Marks With Analytic Rubrics (2019)
Journal Article

Familiarity-based stimulus generalization of conditioned suppression (2017)
Journal Article

We report that stimulus novelty/familiarity is able to modulate stimulus generalization and discuss the theoretical implications of novelty/familiarity coding. Rats in Skinner boxes received clicker → shock pairings before generalization testing to a... Read More about Familiarity-based stimulus generalization of conditioned suppression.

Improved spontaneous object recognition following spaced preexposure trials: evidence for an associative account of recognition memory (2013)
Journal Article

Rodents' biased exploration of a novel object over a familiar object is taken as an indication of recognition memory. According to a general associative model of memory, the biased exploration is a consequence of reduced processing of the familiar ob...

Indirect object recognition: Evidence for associative processes in recognition memory (2012)
Journal Article

Familiarity-based stimulus generalization of conditioned suppression in rats is dependent on the perirhinal cortex (2010)
Journal Article

We report that bilateral, excitoxic lesions of the perirhinal cortex attenuate rats' familiarity-based stimulus generalization. After surgery, rats were preexposed either to 2 auditory stimuli (A and B) or to only 1 auditory stimulus (B). Following p...
