Control Changes the Way We Look at the World

Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience

Published in: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2018, 603-619 Abstract “The feeling of control is a fundamental aspect of human experience and accompanies our voluntary actions all the time. However, how the sense of control interacts with wider perception, cognition, and behavior remains poorly understood. This study focused on how controlling an […]

You said you would! The predictability of other’s behavior from their intentions determines predictive biases in action perception

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance

Published in: Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, Volume 44, Issue 2, 320-335 Abstract “The perception of an action is shifted farther along the observed trajectory if the observer has prior knowledge of the actor’s intention. This intention-action prediction effect is explained by predictive perception models, wherein sensory input is interpreted in light of

Beyond opponent coding of facial identity: Evidence for an additional channel tuned to the average face

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance

Published in: Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, Volume 44, Issue 2, 243-260 Abstract “Face identity can be represented in a multidimensional space centered on the average. It has been argued that the average acts as a perceptual norm, with the norm coded implicitly by balanced activation in pairs of channels that respond to

Unconscious conflict adaptation without feature-repetitions and response time carry-over

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance

Published in: Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, Volume 44, Issue 2, 169-175 Abstract “Leading theories of cognition linked executive control to consciousness or awareness. Evidence from masked priming experiments questioned this link, but without addressing possible confounds. Responding to a target after a masked prime, participants are slower if prime and target present

Facial age cues and emotional expression interact asymmetrically: age cues moderate emotion categorisation

Cognition and Emotion

Published in: Cognition and Emotion, Volume 32, Issue 2, 350-362 Abstract “Facial attributes such as race, sex, and age can interact with emotional expressions; however, only a couple of studies have investigated the nature of the interaction between facial age cues and emotional expressions and these have produced inconsistent results. Additionally, these studies have not addressed

Aging enhances cognitive biases to friends but not the self

Psychonomic Bulletin & Review

Published in: Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, Volume 24, Issue 6, December 2017, 2021-2030 Abstract “We measured changes in self and friend biases in perceptual matching in young and older participants. Participants learned associations between neutral geometric shapes and three personal labels (You, Friend, or Stranger), representing themselves, their named best friend, and a stranger not corresponding to anyone
