A first test of the implicit relational assessment procedure as a measure of self-esteem: irish prisoner groups and university students
Vahey, Nigel A.; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2009-07-01)The study examined the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure's (IRAP) validity as a computerized response-latency-based measure of implicit self-esteem. University undergraduates and 2 sets of convicted prisoners ... -
A functional-analytic model of analogy using the relational evaluation procedure
Stewart, Ian; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Roche, Bryan (Springer Nature, 2004-10-01)Analogical reasoning is conceptualized by Relational Frame Theory as responding in accordance with an equivalence relation between equivalence or other types of derived stimulus relations. The purpose of this study was to ... -
A functional-analytic model of analogy: a relational frame analysis.
Stewart, Ian; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Roche, Bryan; Smeets, Paul M (Society for the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2002-11-01)The aim of this study was to explore a behavior-analytic model of analogical reasoning, defined as the discrimination of formal similarity via equivalence-equivalence responding. In Experiment 1, adult humans were trained ... -
A sketch of the implicit relational assessment procedure (irap) and the relational elaboration and coherence (rec) model
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian; Boles, Shawn (Springer Nature, 2010-07-01)The current article outlines a behavior-analytic approach to the study of so-called implicit attitudes and cognition. The Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP), the conceptual basis of which was derived from ... -
Comparison of acceptance and distraction strategies in coping with experimentally induced pain
McGuire, Brian; Moore, Hazel; Stewart, Ian; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne (Dove Medical Press Ltd., 2015-03-01)Background: This study compared an acceptance-based strategy with a control-based strategy (distraction) in terms of the ability of participants to tolerate a painful stimulus, across two experiments. In addition, participants ... -
Derived stimulus relations, semantic priming, and event-related potentials: testing a behavioral theory of semantic networks
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Staunton, Carmel; Whelan, Robert; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Commins, Sean; Walsh, Derek; Stewart, Ian; Smeets, Paul M; Dymond, Simon (Society for the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005-11-01)Derived equivalence relations, it has been argued, provide a behavioral model of semantic or symbolic meaning in natural language, and thus equivalence relations should possess properties that are typically associated with ... -
Facial reactions reveal that slim is good but fat is not bad: implicit and explicit measures of body-size bias
Roddy, Sarah; Stewart, Ian; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-07-31) -
Matching derived functionally-same stimulus relations: equivalence-equivalence and classical analogies
Carpentier, Franck; Smeets, Paul M.; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2004-04-01)Previous studies have shown that, after being trained on A-B and A-C matching tasks, subjects match not only functionally-same B and C stimuli (stimulus equivalence), but also BC compounds with same-class elements and BC ... -
Relating derived relations as a model of analogical reasoning: reaction times and event-related potentials
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Regan, Donal; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Commins, Sean; Walsh, Derek; Stewart, Ian; Smeets, Paul M; Whelan, Robert; Dymond, Simon (Society for the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005-11-01)The current study aimed to test a Relational Frame Theory (RFT) model of analogical reasoning based on the relating of derived same and derived difference relations. Experiment 1 recorded reaction time measures of ... -
Relational frame theory and stimulus equivalence: Conceptual and procedural issues
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Smeets, Paul M.; Cullinan, Veronica; Leader, Geraldine (2004)The article begins with a brief outline of the phenomenon of stimulus equivalence and its relationship to human verbal behavior. Relational Frame Theory is then outlined as a behavior-analytic account of both stimulus ... -
Temporal relations and intelligence: correlating relational performance with performance on the wais-iii
O’Hora, Denis; Peláez, Martha; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Rae, Gordon; Robinson, Karen; Chaudhary, Tahir (Springer Nature, 2008-10-01)Relational frame theory (RFT) explicitly suggests that derived relational responding underlies complex verbally-based cognitive performances. The current study investigated whether the ability to respond in accordance with ... -
Testing the validity of the implicit relational assessment procedure and the implicit association test: measuring attitudes toward dublin and country life in ireland
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Waldron, Deirdre; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2009-07-01)The current study aimed to test the validity of the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP), as compared to the Implicit Association Test (IAT), by assessing the attitudes of Dublin dwellers and rural dwellers ... -
The implicit relational assessment procedure (irap ) and the malleability of ageist attitudes
Cullen, Claire; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2009-10-01)The current study examined the malleability of implicit attitudes using the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP). In Experiment 1, "similar" and "opposite" were presented as ... -
The implicit relational assessment procedure (irap) as a measure of implicit relative preferences: a first study
Power, Patricia; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2009-10-01)The Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP) was designed to examine implicit beliefs or attitudes In Experiment 1, response latencies obtained from Irish participants on the IRAP showed a strong preference for Irish ... -
The implicit relational assessment procedure (irap) as a response-time and event-related-potentials methodology for testing natural verbal relations: a preliminary study
Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Hayden, Eilish; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2008-10-01)The current article reports the first attempt to test the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP), as a group-based measure of natural verbal relations, using both response-latency and event-related potentials as ... -

Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Murphy, Aisling; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne; Stewart, Ian (Springer Nature, 2010-01-01)The current research comprised two experiments that employed the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP) as a measure of implicit racial attitudes. White Irish participants were exposed to blocks of trials that ... -
