Defining perceptual synchrony
(Kijima Printing Co., 2007)
How does neuronal activity bring about the interpretation of visual space in terms of objects or complex perceptual events? If they group, simple visual features can bring about the integration of spikes from neurons ...
Creating a safety culture: What are the consequences.
(2012)
Getting our work done safely is an ethical and financial imperative. An effective safety culture depends on the consequences for behaviour at every level of the organisation. The safety culture of an organization is not ...
In-game motion dynamics provide a means of exploring the cognitive dynamics of deception
(IEEE, 2018-07-15)
User interfaces that produce an immersive and intuitive in-game experience depend on a strong coupling between user input and the motion of game objects. Such user interfaces require a high sensitivity to user movement ...
New measures of functional (but not perceptual) continuity in visual grouping
(International Society for Psychophysics, 2004)
The benzodiazepine, Lorazepam enhances the efficiency of inhibitory GABA-A synapses in the cortex, which stabilize postsynaptic, excitatory activity by synchronizing their own discharges at around 40 Hz. Lorazepam treatment ...
Capturing hearts and minds: preparing an organization for effective implementation of behaviour-based safety
(Irish Ergonomics Society, 2013)
Many companies fail to successfully implement behaviour based safety (BBS) programmes within their organisation. Often failures are linked to the implementation strategy rather than the programmes themselves. BBS can be ...
The effects of goal-setting on feedback requests.
(Irish Ergonomics Society, 2012)
Prior research suggests that performance feedback enhances the effect of a goal on performance. The current study examined the effect of goal level on feedback solicitation. Participants were exposed to five ...
Developing behaviour-based solutions that last: Examples from industry.
(Irish Ergonomics Society, 2011)
Organizational behaviour management (OBM) is an approach to enhancing the performance of organizations. Based originally on the theories of B. F. Skinner and other psychologists, OBM practitioners ...
Some effects of negative delays upon the perception of causal relatedness
(The International Society for Psychophysics, 2004)
We examined the effects of negative delays on the perception of causality using a variation of the paradigm originated by Michotte (1954) and as an extension to similar work conducted by Kanizsa and Vicario (1968). In our ...
Expectancy, not memory determines identical search rates in static and dynamic displays.
(International Society for Psychophysics, 2005)
Search rates are often used as a measure of search efficiency. Horowitz & Wolfe employed this measure to compare static and dynamic visual search (Horowitz & Wolfe, 1998). Based on identical search rates, they argued that ...
Structural imbalance and aesthetic preference in domestic chicks
(The International Society for Psychophysics, 2010-10)
In Arnheim¿s (1954/1974) theory of structural balance, an image is more aesthetically pleasing when it demonstrates balance between multiple internal sources of directed perceptual force. Areas of balance and preferred ...
