Auditory context-dependent distraction by unexpected visual stimuli
Research findings indicate that when a task-irrelevant stimulus feature deviates from an otherwise predictable pattern, participants performing a categorization task exhibit slower responses (deviance distraction). This deviance distraction effect reflects the violation of the sensory predictions generated by the cognitive system. In this study, we sought to examine for the first time whether these predictions can be incidentally modulated by the…
Magnitude of sex differences in visual search varies with target eccentricity
Deconstructing the repetitive behaviour phenotype in autism spectrum disorder through a large population‐based analysis
OBJECTIVE: Restricted and repetitive pattern of behaviours and interests (RRB) are a cardinal feature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but there remains uncertainty about how these diverse behaviours vary according to individual characteristics. This study provided the largest exploration to date of the relationship between Repetitive Motor Behaviours, Rigidity/Insistence on Sameness and Circumscribed Interests with other individual characteris…
Sex‐specific variation in facial masculinity/femininity associated with autistic traits in the general population
Reports linking prenatal testosterone exposure to autistic traits and to a masculinized face structure have motivated research investigating whether autism is associated with facial masculinization. This association has been reported with greater consistency for females than for males, in studies comparing groups with high and low levels of autistic traits. In the present study, we conducted two experiments to examine facial masculinity/femininit…

Socio-emotional engagement, joint attention, imitation, and conversation skill
According to Racine and Carpendale’s constructivist theory, the acquisition of shared linguistic practice is grounded in the development of competence in shared forms of activity such as joint attention which are naturally embedded in socio-emotional engagement. The present study investigated the relationships among socio-emotional engagement, joint attention, imitation, and conversation skill by establishing a model of these relationships in 94 …
Weak central coherence, poor joint attention, and low verbal ability
C. Jarrold, W. Butler, E. M. Cottington, and F. Jiminez (2000) proposed that weak central coherence is a primary cognitive deficit in autism and speculated that it may even account for theory of mind impairments. The current study investigated whether weak central coherence could account for deficits in 2 behaviors purported to tap capabilities fundamental to a theory of mind: joint attention and pretend play. Twenty-one children (ages 3-5 years)…
Tailoring decision support to individual users
Computer-based systems have been developed to help people make decisions. Only some of these systems try to tailor support to the individual user; even fewer try to assess a user's needs within the framework of a psychological theory. Behavioural decision theory (BDT) provides a framework for assessing individual needs. Models of individual users can be created using existing methodologies developed in studies of single-process BDTs (e.g., the li…
Risk Perceptions in Australia
Research on perceptions of risk in Australia began only recently. Typically, data from other countries were used to determine what hazards might be considered most and least risky by the Australian public. Relying on overseas data is problematic, however, because cultural contexts may influence risk perceptions. To address the paucity of data on risk perceptions in Australia, we obtained relative risk ratings for 30 hazardous technologies and act…
Sternberg's mixed model applied to indeterminate linear syllogisms
Extensions to the mixed model of linear syllogistic reasoning, which were designed to encompass the solution of indeterminate syllogisms, are criticized. The extended model was incorrectly tested in Sternberg (1981), and reanalyses disconfirm the model. Conceptual difficulties are also noted in that the proposed checks for indeterminacy do not classify appropriately all versions of the linear syllogism. Further, post hoc analyses implicate lingui…
