A test of the reward-contrast hypothesis [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioural Processes, 2017
Source memory, a facet of episodic memory, is the memory of the origin of information. Whereas source memory in rats is sustained for at least a week, spatial memory degraded after approximately a day. Different forgetting functions may suggest that two memory systems (source memory and spatial memory) are dissociated.

hypr: An R package for hypothesis-driven contrast coding [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Open Source Software, 2020
The hypr package in R provides the researcher with a straightforward interface to generate contrast matrices from research hypotheses and the reverse. It can be used to derive contrast matrices for custom research hypotheses and as an instructional tool to understand what research hypotheses a given contrast matrix tests.

Effects of prematurity on the development of contrast sensitivity: Testing the visual experience hypothesis

open access: yesVision Research, 2013
In order to investigate the effects of visual experience on early visual development, the current study compared contrast sensitivity across infants born with different degrees of moderate-to-late prematurity. Here the logic is that at any given postterm age, the most premature infants will have the oldest postnatal age.

Contrast modulated maskers: Test of a late nonlinearity hypothesis

open access: yesVision Research, 1989
The contrast threshold for detecting a low frequency test grating in the presence of a contrast-modulated high frequency masker is heavily dependent upon the phase relations between the gratings: test stimuli in + or - cosine phase are much more detectable than those in + or -sine phase.

What Is the Mechanism Underlying the Interleaving Effect in Category Induction: An Eye-Tracking and Behavioral Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Interleaved practice (i.e., exemplars from different categories are intermixed within blocks) has been shown to enhance induction performance compared to blocked practice (i.e., exemplars from the same category are presented sequentially).

Lightness contrast & assimilation: testing the hypotheses

open access: yesPrimenjena Psihologija, 2021
Lightness contrast alters lightness of a target decreasing its similarity with neighbouring surfaces (inducers), while lightness assimilation has an opposite effect, similarity is increased.

Hypothesis on the pathophysiology of syringomyelia based on analysis of phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging of Chiari-I malformation patients [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2023
Background: Despite several hypotheses, our understanding of syringomyelia’s pathophysiology remains limited. The hypothesis proposed by Oldfield et al.

Natural variation in female reproductive hormones does not affect contrast sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Evidence suggests that females experience adaptive shifts in facial preferences across the menstrual cycle. However, recent discussions and meta-analyses suggest that these findings are equivocal.

Dreaming during the COVID-19 pandemic: Support for the threat simulation function of dreams

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
Evolutionary theories suggest that dreams function as a world simulator of events that maximizes our ability to surmount social and threat-related challenges critical to survivorship and reproduction.
