Information transfer within and between autistic and non-autistic people
Autism is clinically defined by social communication deficits, suggesting that autistic people may be less effective at sharing information, particularly with one another. However, recent research indicates that neurotype mismatches, rather than autism itself, degrade information sharing. Here, using the diffusion chain method, we examined information transfer in autistic, non-autistic and mixed-neurotype chains (N = 311), replicating and extendi…
A hierarchical signal detection model with unequal variance for binary responses
Gaussian signal detection models with equal variance are commonly used in simple yes–no detection and discrimination tasks whereas more flexible models with unequal variance require additional information. Here, a hierarchical Bayesian model with equal variance is extended to an unequal-variance model by exploiting variability of hit and false-alarm rates in a random sample of participants. This hierarchical model is investigated analytically, in…
Proven and not proven
The current Scottish verdict system includes three verdicts: ‘guilty’, ‘not guilty’ and ‘not proven’. The Scottish Government are currently reviewing the utility of the not proven verdict. Proponents of the not proven verdict suggest that it directs jurors to their true role of determining whether the prosecution's case has, or has not, been ‘proven’. Reformists suggest a move to a system similar to England and Wales, with only guilty and not gui…
Processing Speed Predicts Mean Performance in Task-Switching but Not Task-Switching Cost
In several studies, it has been suggested that task-switching performance is linked to processing speed. Here we argue that the relation between processing speed and high-level cognitive ability found in previous studies may be due to confounded measurements of processing speed and task-switching ability. In the present study, we required participants to complete an inspection time (IT) task to probe their processing speed. We employed convention…
