Object-based Neglect Varies with Egocentric Position

, 2011
Different reference frames have been identified to influence neglect behavior. In particular, neglect has been demonstrated to be related to the contralesional side of the subject's body (egocentric reference frames) as well as to the contralesional side

A Hero's Journey to Systemic Change: Developing Expertise in Agricultural Development

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Experts in rural development and agrarian change wield considerable influence over programme design and delivery, directing resources and shaping trajectories towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Yet the pathways through which such expertise develops remain under‐examined. This study examines the journey to expertise among experts

Cultivating Sustainability: How Modern Food Practices Shape Pro‐Environmental Motivation Through Food–Nature Associations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food practices have evolved alongside industrialization and urbanization. Compared to earlier generations, modern individuals grow and cook food less often and consume more processed products, weakening awareness of food's natural origins. Three studies examined explanatory pathways linking food practices to pro‐environmentalism through the ...

Unnatural Causes: Cryptocurrencies, Carbon Credits, and the rise of Neoliberalism from Below

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Klima is a carbon‐backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021 ...

Leftward Deviation and Asymmetric Speed of Egocentric Judgment between Left and Right Visual Fields

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
The egocentric reference frame is essential for body orientation and spatial localization of external objects. Recent neuroimaging and lesion studies have revealed that the right hemisphere of humans may play a more dominant role in processing egocentric

Centered egocentric, de-centered egocentric, and allocentric spatial representations in the peripersonal space of congenital total blindness

, 2009
The distinction between different spatial representations in the peripersonal space was examined in two experiments by requiring sighted blindfolded and blind participants to remember the locations of objects haptically explored.
