Dunning-Kruger effects in reasoning: Theoretical implications of the failure to recognize incompetence
(Springer, 2017-12)The Dunning-Kruger effect refers to the observation that the incompetent are often ill-suited to recognize their incompetence. Here we investigate potential Dunning-Kruger effects in high-level reasoning and, in particular, ... -
Early sensitivity for eyes within faces: A new neuronal account of holistic and featural processing
(Elsevier, 2014-08-01)Eyes are central to face processing however their role in early face encoding as reflected by the N170 ERP component is unclear. Using eye tracking to enforce fixation on specific facial features, we found that the N170 ... -
The effects of imagery rescripting on memory outcomes in social anxiety disorder
(Elsevier, 2020-01)Imagery rescripting (IR) is an effective intervention for social anxiety disorder (SAD) that targets negative autobiographical memories. IR has been theorized to work through various memory mechanisms, including modifying ... -

Effects of peripheral eccentricity and head orientation on gaze discrimination
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-11-26)Visual search tasks support a special role for direct gaze in human cognition, while classic gaze judgement tasks suggest the congruency between head orientation and gaze direction plays a central role in gaze perception. ... -

(MDPI, 2018-01)We investigated whether anxious individuals, who adopt an inherently negative mindset, demonstrate a particularly salient memory bias for words tainted by negative contexts. To this end, sequentially presented target words, ... -
Emotional modulation of attention orienting by gaze varies with dynamic cue sequence
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-07-03)Recent gaze cueing studies using dynamic cue sequences have reported increased attention orienting by gaze with faces expressing fear, surprise or anger. Here, we investigated whether the type of dynamic cue sequence used ... -
Empirical validation of the Gamification User Types Hexad scale in English and Spanish
(Elsevier, 2018-10-13)Gamification, the use of game elements in non-game systems, is now established as a relevant research field in human-computer interaction (HCI). Several empirical studies have shown that gameful interventions can increase ... -
Equity financing restrictions and the asset growth effect: International vs. Asian evidence
