Baseline self-report ‘central mechanisms’ trait predicts persistent knee pain in the Knee Pain in the Community (KPIC) cohort (2019)
Journal Article
Akin-Akinyosoye, K., Sarmanova, A., Fernandes, G., Frowd, N., Swaithes, L., Stocks, J., …Walsh, D. A. (2020). Baseline self-report ‘central mechanisms’ trait predicts persistent knee pain in the Knee Pain in the Community (KPIC) cohort. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 28(2), 173-181. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2019.11.004

Objectives We investigated whether baseline scores for a self-report trait linked to central mechanisms predict 1 year pain outcomes in the Knee Pain in the Community cohort. Method 1471 participants reported knee pain at baseline and respon...

Under the influence of the environment: children’s responding invigorated and biased by predictive cues (2019)
Journal Article
Alarcón, D., & Bonardi, C. (2020). Under the influence of the environment: children’s responding invigorated and biased by predictive cues. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 191, Article 104741. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2019.104741

Cues that signal motivationally significant consequences can elevate responding and bias choice. A task known as Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) has been used to assess the influence of these cues on independently trained responses, and to s...

Quand le cerveau en fait trop (2019)
Journal Article
Bast, T. (2019). Quand le cerveau en fait trop. Cerveau & Psycho, 116, 16-22

« Mais où ai-je garé ma voiture ? Pourquoi suis-je étourdi ce matin ? Mon cerveau n'est pas réveillé ! » Longtemps, on a cru que des troubles cognitifs et de nombreuses maladies mentales étaient dus à une activité cérébrale insuffisante. En fait, c'...

Individual variation in inter-ocular suppression and sensory eye dominance (2019)
Journal Article
Wang, M., McGraw, P., & Ledgeway, T. (2019). Individual variation in inter-ocular suppression and sensory eye dominance. Vision Research, 163, 33-41. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visres.2019.07.004

The competitive and inhibitory interactions between the two eyes’ images are a pervasive aspect of binocular vision. Over the last decade, our understanding of the neural processes underpinning binocular rivalry (BR) and continuous flash suppression...

Mathematics students demonstrate superior visuo-spatial working memory to humanities students under conditions of low central executive processing load (2019)
Journal Article
Hubber, P. J., Gilmore, C., & Cragg, L. (2019). Mathematics students demonstrate superior visuo-spatial working memory to humanities students under conditions of low central executive processing load. Journal of Numerical Cognition, 5(2), 189-219. https://doi.org/10.5964/jnc.v5i2.175

Previous research has demonstrated that working memory performance is linked to mathematics achievement. Most previous studies have involved children and arithmetic rather than more advanced forms of mathematics. This study compared the performance o...

"These things don't work": young people's views on harm minimisation strategies as a proxy for self-harm: a mixed methods approach (2019)
Journal Article
Wadman, R., Nielsen, E., O’Raw, L., Brown, K., Williams, A. J., Sayal, K., & Townsend, E. (2019). "These things don't work": young people's views on harm minimisation strategies as a proxy for self-harm: a mixed methods approach. Archives of Suicide Research, 24(3), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1080/13811118.2019.1624669

Objective: Although UK clinical guidelines make tentative recommendations for 'harm minimisation' strategies for repeated self-harm, this is in the absence of empirical evidence supporting their acceptability or effectiveness. We explore young peopl... Read More about "These things don't work": young people's views on harm minimisation strategies as a proxy for self-harm: a mixed methods approach.

Comparing drivers' visual attention at junctions in real and simulated environments (2019)
Journal Article
Robbins, C. J., Allen, H. A., & Chapman, P. (2019). Comparing drivers' visual attention at junctions in real and simulated environments. Applied Ergonomics, 80, 89-101. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2019.05.005

Driving simulation is widely used to answer important applied research questions, however, it is vital for specific driving tasks to undergo appropriate behavioural validation testing. Many previous validation studies have used simple driving tasks a... Read More about Comparing drivers' visual attention at junctions in real and simulated environments.

Considering self or others across two cultural contexts: How children’s resource allocation is affected by self-construal manipulations (2019)
Journal Article
Weltzien, S., Marsh, L., Kanngiesser, P., Stuijfzand, B., & Hood, B. (2019). Considering self or others across two cultural contexts: How children’s resource allocation is affected by self-construal manipulations. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 184, 139-157. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2019.04.002

Most humans share to some degree. Yet, from middle childhood, sharing behavior varies substantially across societies. Here, for the first time, we explored the effect of self-construal manipulation on sharing decisions in 7- and 8-year-old children f...

© 2019 Elsevier Ltd Substantial research has investigated the effects of alcohol consumption on cognitive functions. However, little research has been conducted which examines the effects of evening alcohol consumption on next morning driving perform...
