The captive brain: Torture and the neuroscience of humane interrogation
(Oxford University Press, 2018)Despite it being abhorrent and illegal, torture is sometimes employed for information gathering. However, the extreme stressors employed during torture force the brain away from the relatively narrow, adaptive range of ... -
The Case for Change & An Ethical Approach to Wellbeing Management in Aviation: Wellbeing II and Advancing an Integrated Health & Safety Culture
(2021)Work is part of our wellbeing and a key driver of a person’s health. As argued by Elkington (1994), work needs to balance three benefit areas –economic/profit, people/society and planet/ecological(Elkington, 1994)Across ... -
The case for change: aviation worker wellbeing during the COVID 19 pandemic, and the need for an integrated health and safety culture
(2022)The workplace is an important setting for health protection, health promotion and disease prevention. Currently, health and wellbeing approaches at an aviation organisational level are not addressing both human and safety ... -
Case mixing and the right parietal cortex: evidence from rTMS.
(Springer, 2006)We investigated the necessary role of the right parietal lobe in visual word recognition using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). TMS was applied to the right posterior parietal lobe and to a control area as participants ... -
Category-dependent and category-independent goal-value codes in human ventromedial prefrontal cortex
(2013)To choose between manifestly distinct options, it is suggested that the brain assigns values to goals using a common currency. Although previous studies have reported activity in ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) ... -
Cerebellum and cognition: Evidence for the encoding of higher order rules
(2013)Converging anatomical and functional evidence suggests that the cerebellum processes both motor and nonmotor information originating from the primary motor cortex and prefrontal cortex, respectively. However, it has not ... -
Changes in language use mediate expressive writings benefits on Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) following Myocardial Infarction
(2014)The present study assessed linguistic mediators on the effects of expressive writing on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), depression and anxiety following myocardial infarction (MI). One hundred and twenty-one cardiac ... -
Changes in resting connectivity with age: A simultaneous electroencephalogram and functional magnetic resonance imaging investigation.
(2013)Resting fluctuations in the blood oxygenation level-dependent signal have attracted considerable interest for their sensitivity to pathological brain processes. However, these analyses are susceptible to confound by nonneural ... -
Cherishing all the Children Equally? Ireland 100 Years on from the Easter Rising

Chess Masters' Hypothesis Testing
(Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum, 2004)Falsification may demarcate science from non-science as the rational way to test the truth of hypotheses. But experimental evidence from studies of reasoning shows that people often find falsification difficult. We ... -
Childhood sexual abuse: sibling perspectives
(2018)Despite a recent focus highlighting the systemic impact of childhood sexual abuse (CSA), the needs of nonabused siblings have been largely overlooked. This interpretative phenomenological analysis study explored the lived ... -
Children s perception of coping and support following parental separation
(Taylor and Francis, 2008)Families represent the primary setting in which most children's lives are shaped and determined. Increasingly, children experience ongoing change in family formation and structure, and such fluctuation may threaten or ... -
Children's Naive Concepts of OCD and How They Are Affected by Biomedical Versus Cognitive Behavioural Psychoeducation
(2018)Background: How we conceptualize mental health conditions is important as it impacts on a wide range of mediators of treatment outcome. We do not know how children intuitively conceptualize obsessive-compulsive disorder ... -
Chronic immobilization stress occludes in vivo cortical activation in an animal model of panic induced by carbon dioxide inhalation.
(2014)Breathing high concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) can trigger panic and anxiety in humans. CO2 inhalation has been hypothesized to activate neural systems similar to those underlying fear learning, especially those ... -
Cingulate hypoactivity in cocaine users during a GO/NOGO task as revealed by event-related fMRI.
(Society for Neuroscience, 2003)Although extensive evidence exists for the reinforcing properties of drugs of abuse such as cocaine, relatively less research has addressed the functional neuroanatomical correlates of the cognitive sequelae of these ... -
Client-Identified Impacts of Helpful and Hindering Events in Psychotherapy: A Qualitative Meta-analysis
(2021)Objective: Understanding the client perspective is important for the provision of psychotherapy. The significant events paradigm, within which clients report on the most significant events of a therapy session immediately ... -
Closing The Loop of Cross-Fertilisation Transferring Human Factors Training from Aviation to Maritime
(2016)This paper outlines the application of a transfer and impact assessment methodology for the adaption of human factors training from the aviation domain to the maritime domain. Human factors training, as it currently exists ... -
Cocaine dependence and attention switching within and between verbal and visuospatial working memory
(Wiley Blackwell, 2005)Many studies have shown the negative effects of cocaine on neuropsychological and cognitive performance in drug-dependent individuals, but little is known about the underlying neuroanatomy of these dysfunctions. The present ...
