New preprint 🚨

Across multiple tasks, we show that higher-level info is more readily accessible in WM before evidence accumulation begins. Attention then boosts perceptual detail.

A lot of fun with my colleagues @ckerren.bsky.social and @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social

I'm so excited to share our new paper! 🎉 After ten years in the making, it's finally out in Journal of Memory and Language!

We present preliminary evidence that perturbing motor activity shapes how people conceptualize the meaning of action sentences.

Another excellent piece of work by the talented @claraalamedaj.bsky.social

It brings together behavioural results and canonical ERP markers with computational modelling and advanced multivariate EEG analyses to revisit a classic effect in multisensory integration!

🚨 New preprint 🚨

Multisensory integration is often described as basic, robust, even ✨“cognitively impenetrable” ✨

But does the brain still bind the senses when alertness drops? 😴🧠

Two years ago, I had an idea, one that evolved over time as I kept reading and learning. Today, a major first part of that idea has just become my first PhD preprint, now publicly available on PsyArxiv.

Let me tell you a bit more about the story behind it... while I prepare the submission.
