A test of the reward-contrast hypothesis. [PDF]

open access: yesBehav 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.

Anisotropic perception of slant from texture gradient: Size contrast hypothesis. [PDF]

open access: yesAtten Percept Psychophys, 2016
When we see an optical pattern that has a gradient of the size and/or density of its texture elements, we often perceive a surface that is slanted in depth. Our inquiry was to ask whether the effect of a texture gradient depends on the direction of the gradient (ground, ceiling, and sidewall patterns) or on the position of the observer's head (upward ...

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.
