Novelty Mismatch as a Determinant of Latent Inhibition (2024)
Journal Article
Haselgrove, M., Lagator, S., Mah, S. L., & Gray, E. (in press). Novelty Mismatch as a Determinant of Latent Inhibition. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition,

Latent inhibition refers to the observation, made in both human and non-human animals, that learning about the relationship between a stimulus and an outcome progresses more rapidly when the stimulus is novel compared to when the stimulus has been re...

A Developmental Trajectory of Latent Inhibition (2024)
Journal Article
Haselgrove, M., & Mah, S. L. (2024). A Developmental Trajectory of Latent Inhibition. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 50(3), 186-196. https://doi.org/10.1037/xan0000381

Latent inhibition is said to occur when learning about the relationship between a cue and an outcome proceeds more readily when the cue is novel relative to when the cue has been rendered familiar through mere preexposure. Previous studies suggest th... Read More about A Developmental Trajectory of Latent Inhibition.

Schizotypy dimensions do not predict overshadowing (2023)
Journal Article
Quigley, M., Bradley, A., & Haselgrove, M. (2023). Schizotypy dimensions do not predict overshadowing. Behavioural Brain Research, 453, Article 114631. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2023.114631

When two cues are presented together and reliably predict an outcome (AB-O1) an “overshadowing” effect is typically observed. That is, the relationship between these cues and the outcome is learned about less well than a cue presented on its own with... Read More about Schizotypy dimensions do not predict overshadowing.

Overshadowing, but not relative validity, between the elements of an outcome during human associative learning (2023)
Journal Article
Quigley, M., & Haselgrove, M. (2023). Overshadowing, but not relative validity, between the elements of an outcome during human associative learning. Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 203, Article 107790. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nlm.2023.107790

Overshadowing and relative validity constitute two phenomena that inspired the development of the Rescorla-Wagner model in 1972. They demonstrate that cues will interact with one another for an association with the presence or absence of an outcome....

Evaluating the effectiveness of a board game to learn biological psychology facts (2023)
Journal Article
Whitt, E., & Haselgrove, M. (2023). Evaluating the effectiveness of a board game to learn biological psychology facts. Psychology Teaching Review, 29(1), 13-24. https://doi.org/10.53841/bpsptr.2023.29.1.13

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.

The Developmental Trajectories of Children’s Reorientation to Global and Local Properties of Environmental Geometry (2022)
Journal Article
Buckley, M. G., Holden, L. J., Smith, A. D., & Haselgrove, M. (2024). The Developmental Trajectories of Children’s Reorientation to Global and Local Properties of Environmental Geometry. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 153(4), 889-912. https://doi.org/10.1037/xge0001265

The way in which organisms represent the shape of their environments during navigation has been debated in cognitive, comparative, and developmental psychology. While there is evidence that adult humans encode the entire boundary shape of an environm...

The role of prediction in learned predictiveness. (2022)
Journal Article
Eatherington, C. J., & Haselgrove, M. (2022). The role of prediction in learned predictiveness. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 48(3), 203-221. https://doi.org/10.1037/xan0000330

Learning permits even relatively uninteresting stimuli to capture attention if they are established as predictors of important outcomes. Associative theories explain this “learned predictiveness” effect by positing that attention is a function of the... Read More about The role of prediction in learned predictiveness..

High Schizotypy Predicts Emotion Recognition Independently of Negative Affect (2021)
Journal Article
Dawes, C., Danielmeier, C., Haselgrove, M., & Moran, P. M. (2021). High Schizotypy Predicts Emotion Recognition Independently of Negative Affect. Frontiers in Psychiatry, 12, Article 738344. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2021.738344

Introduction: Deficits in Emotion Recognition (ER) contribute significantly to poorer functional outcomes in people with schizophrenia. However, rather than reflecting a core symptom of schizophrenia, reduced ER has been suggested to reflect increase...

Crossing boundaries: global reorientation following transfer from the inside to the outside of an arena (2019)
Journal Article
Buckley, M. G., Holden, L. J., Spicer, S. G., Smith, A. D., & Haselgrove, M. (2019). Crossing boundaries: global reorientation following transfer from the inside to the outside of an arena. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 45(3), 322-337. https://doi.org/10.1037/xan0000206

In two spatial navigation experiments, human participants were asked to find a hidden goal (a Wi-Fi signal) that was located in one of the right-angled corners of a kite-shaped (Experiment 1) or a cross-shaped (Experiment 2) virtual environment. Goal... Read More about Crossing boundaries: global reorientation following transfer from the inside to the outside of an arena.

Thinking outside of the box II: disrupting the cognitive map (2018)
Journal Article
Buckley, M. G., Smith, A. D., & Haselgrove, M. (2019). Thinking outside of the box II: disrupting the cognitive map. Cognitive Psychology, 108, 22-41. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cogpsych.2018.11.001

A number of influential spatial learning theories posit that organisms encode a viewpoint independent (i.e. allocentric) representation of the global boundary shape of their environment in order to support spatial reorientation and place learning. In... Read More about Thinking outside of the box II: disrupting the cognitive map.

Enhanced latent inhibition in high schizotypy individuals (2015)
Journal Article
Granger, K. T., Moran, P. M., Buckley, M. G., & Haselgrove, M. (2016). Enhanced latent inhibition in high schizotypy individuals. Personality and Individual Differences, 91, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2015.11.040

Latent inhibition refers to a retardation in learning about a stimulus that has been rendered familiar by non-reinforced preexposure, relative to a non-preexposed stimulus. Latent inhibition has been shown to be inversely correlated with schizotypy,... Read More about Enhanced latent inhibition in high schizotypy individuals.

Shape shifting: Local landmarks interfere with navigation by, and recognition of, global shape (2014)
Journal Article
Buckley, M. G., Haselgrove, M., & Smith, A. D. (2014). Shape shifting: Local landmarks interfere with navigation by, and recognition of, global shape. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 40(2), 492-510. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0034901

An influential theory of spatial navigation states that the boundary shape of an environment is preferentially encoded over and above other spatial cues, such that it is impervious to interference from alternative sources of information. We explored... Read More about Shape shifting: Local landmarks interfere with navigation by, and recognition of, global shape.

Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise (2013)
Journal Article
Haselgrove, M., Tam, S. K. E., & Jones, P. M. (2013). Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 39(4), 311-322. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0032569

Two appetitive conditioning experiments with rats investigated the mechanisms and properties of unblocking that results from the surprising omission of an expected post-trial unconditioned stimulus (US). Experiment 1 demonstrated unblocking under cir... Read More about Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise.
