Close to the same: Similarity influences remembered distance between stimuli
Six preregistered studies show that the degree of similarity of two objects biases people’s spatial memory of these objects. When objects are high in...

A framework for generalizable neural networks for robust estimation of eyelids and pupils
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have enabled recent advances in the accuracy and robustness of video-oculography. However, to make robust predictions,...

Using drawings and deep neural networks to characterize the building blocks of human visual similarity
Early in life and without special training, human beings discern resemblance between abstract visual stimuli, such as drawings, and the real-world...

Bayesian Semiparametric Longitudinal Inverse-Probit Mixed Models for Category Learning
Understanding how the adult human brain learns novel categories is an important problem in neuroscience. Drift-diffusion models are popular in such...

The mental representation of occupational stereotypes is driven as much by their affective as by their semantic content
BackgroundStudies on person perception showed that stereotypes can be activated by presenting either characteristic traits of group members, or...

The Occurrence of Psychologically Profound, Meaningful, and Mystical Experiences During a Month-Long Meditation Retreat
ObjectivesContemplative practice can occasion powerful psychological experiences. Yet few empirical studies have investigated whether their...

Combining reaction-time distributions to conserve shape
To improve the estimate of the shape of a reaction-time distribution, it is sometimes desirable to combine several samples, drawn from different...

Loneliness corresponds with neural representations and language use that deviate from shared cultural perceptions
The word zeitgeist refers to common perceptions shared in a given culture. Meanwhile, a defining feature of loneliness is feeling that one’s views...

Higher Sensory Sensitivity is Linked to Greater Expansion Amongst Functional Connectivity Gradients
Insofar as the autistic-like phenotype presents in the general population, it consists of partially dissociable traits, such as social and sensory...

No faces, just body movements—Effects of perceived emotional valence of body kinetics and psychological factors on interpersonal distance behavior within an immersive virtual environment
In an immersive virtual environment, it was investigated how the perception of body kinetics contributes to social distance behavior when the facial...
