Psychometric properties of the Ekman 60‐Faces Test in clinical populations: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ekman 60‐Faces Test is widely used to assess facial emotion recognition, but information on its validity and reliability is scarce. This systematic review evaluated the reporting of psychometric properties across clinical populations. A total of 159 studies (n = 5978) were included: case–control (n = 109), single cohort (n = 37) and review/

Semantic diversity:A measure of contextual variation in word meaning based on latent semantic analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Semantic ambiguity is typically measured by summing the number of senses or dictionary definitions that a word has. Such measures are somewhat subjective and may not adequately capture the full extent of variation in word meaning, particularly for ...

Episodic memory rehabilitation for HIV‐associated neurocognitive disorders: A scoping review

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite extensive research on HIV‐associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND), interest in cognitive rehabilitation has emerged only within the past 15 years. HAND are characterised by mild‐to‐moderate impairments in multiple cognitive domains: attention, episodic memory and executive functions.

Individual differences in set‐shifting and levodopa responsiveness in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Perseveration (PE) and learned irrelevance (LI) are two distinct processes that shape attentional set‐shifting in Parkinson's disease (PD). Whether LI and PE are dopamine‐dependent remains unclear. We investigated whether PE and LI may be dissociated in early PD and whether these switch conditions are associated with an individual motor ...

Estimating and interpreting psychometric networks in neuropsychology: A tutorial with conceptual extensions

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Network psychometrics has emerged as a promising framework for modelling the structure of neuropsychological data, offering a complementary perspective to traditional latent variable approaches or single test approaches. In neuropsychology, test performance is rarely interpreted in isolation, but rather as reflecting interacting cognitive ...

Cognitive reserve, emotion perception and theory of mind in non‐demented Parkinson's disease

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Cognitive Reserve (CR) hypothesis attempts to account for individual differences in vulnerability to age‐ or pathology‐related brain changes, where lifetime experiences (e.g., education, literacy attainment) have protective effects on cognitive decline. While evidence suggests CR proxies predict cognitive performance in Parkinson's disease
