Learning and memory deficits in ecstasy users and their neural correlates during a face-learning task
(Elsevier, 2009)It has been consistently shown that ecstasy users display impairments in learning and memory performance. In addition, working memory processing in ecstasy users has been shown to be associated with neural alterations in ... -
Learning emotion-focused therapy: Certified emotion-focused therapists perspectives.
(2020)Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) is an increasingly popular form of humanistic therapy that is spreading internationally through standard training curricula. The empirical investigations of training in EFT has, however, ... -

Lesbian, gay or bisexual identity as a risk factor for trauma and mental health problems in Northern Irish students and the protective role of social support.
(2020)Background: People identifying as lesbian, gay or bisexual (LGB) have been shown to experience more trauma and poorer mental health than their heterosexual counterparts, particularly in countries with discriminatory laws ... -
Linking time-on-task, spatial bias and hemispheric activation asymmetry: a neural correlate of rightward attention drift.
(2013)Biases of spatial attention may be moderated by non-spatial factors such as attentional load and time-on-task. Although these effects are thought to arise from depletion of right hemisphere processing resources, their ... -
Loss of insight in frontotemporal dementia, corticobasal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy
(Oxford University Press, 2007)Loss of insight is one of the core features of frontal/behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (FTD). FTD shares many clinical and pathological features with corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and progressive supranuclear ... -
Low-intensity internet-delivered treatment for generalized anxiety symptoms in routine care: protocol for a randomized controlled trial.
(2014)Background: Worldwide prevalence of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is considered high; in Europe lifetime prevalence has been estimated at 4.3 to 5.9%. High levels of anxiety disorders have been reported in ... -
A machine learning approach to understanding patterns of engagement with internet-delivered mental health interventions
(American Medical Association, 2020)Importance: The mechanisms by which engagement with internet-delivered psychological interventions are associated with depression and anxiety symptoms are unclear. Objective: To identify behavior types based on how ... -
Mapping adolescent reward anticipation, receipt, and prediction error during the monetary incentive delay task.
(2019)The functional neuroanatomy and connectivity of reward processing in adults are well documented, with relatively less research on adolescents, a notable gap given this developmental period’s association with altered reward ... -
Measurement of Social Cognition in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Population Based Study
(2016)Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease. Executive dysfunction is common in patients with ALS, with up to 50% of patients performing within an impaired range. ... -
Menstrual cycle phase modulates cognitive control over male but not female stimuli
(2008)Evolutionary selection pressures have been one of the factors proposed to underlie sex differences in inhibitory control. Consequently, inhibitory control may vary as a function of the menstrual cycle and may be modulated ... -
Mental models and pragmatics: Author's response
(Cambridge University Press, 2000)Van der Henst argues that the theory of mental models lacks a pragmatic component. He fills the gap with the notion that reasoners draw the most relevant conclusions. We agree, but argue that theories need an element of ... -
Metacognitive and online error awareness deficits after prefrontal cortex lesions
(2013)Awareness of deficits after brain injury represents a significant clinical and theoretical challenge, but relatively little is known about the neuroanatomical correlates of specific types of deficit awareness. We examined ... -
Methylphenidate improves some but not all measures of ATTENTION, as measured by the TEA-Ch in medication-naïve children with ADHD
(2013)The Test of Everyday Attention for Children (TEA-Ch) is a reliable neuropsychological assessment of attention control in children. Methylphenidate (MPH) is an effective treatment to improve attentional difficulties in ... -
