Midfrontal theta oscillations and conflict monitoring in children and adults (2021)
Journal Article
Chevalier, N., Hadley, L. V., & Balthrop, K. (2021). Midfrontal theta oscillations and conflict monitoring in children and adults. Developmental Psychobiology, 63(8), Article e22216. https://doi.org/10.1002/dev.22216

Conflict monitoring is central in cognitive control, as detection of conflict serves as a signal for the need to engage control. This study examined whether (1) midfrontal theta oscillations similarly support conflict monitoring in children and adult...

Synchrony as a measure of conversation difficulty: Movement coherence increases with background noise level and complexity in dyads and triads (2021)
Journal Article
Hadley, L. V., & Ward, J. A. (2021). Synchrony as a measure of conversation difficulty: Movement coherence increases with background noise level and complexity in dyads and triads. PLoS ONE, 16(10), Article e0258247. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0258247

When people interact, they fall into synchrony. This synchrony has been demonstrated in a range of contexts, from walking or playing music together to holding a conversation, and has been linked to prosocial outcomes such as development of rapport an...

The effects of dual-task interference in predicting turn-ends in speech and music (2021)
Journal Article
Fisher, N. K., Hadley, L. V., Corps, R. E., & Pickering, M. J. (2021). The effects of dual-task interference in predicting turn-ends in speech and music. Brain Research, 1768, Article 147571. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brainres.2021.147571

Determining when a partner’s spoken or musical turn will end requires well-honed predictive abilities. Evidence suggests that our motor systems are activated during perception of both speech and music, and it has been argued that motor simulation is...
