DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2020.104241
Abstract: Other peoples' (imagined) visual perspectives are represented perceptually in a similar way to our own, and can drive bottom-up processes in the same way as own perceptual input (Ward, Ganis, & Bach, 2019). Here we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/pspa0000115
Abstract: Taking another person’s perspective is widely presumed to increase interpersonal understanding. Very few experiments, however, have actually tested whether perspective taking increases accuracy when predicting another person’s thoughts, feelings, attitudes, or other mental states. Those… read more here.

Abstract: Affordances are available behaviors that emerge out of relations between properties of animals and properties of their environment. Affordances are nested within one another. One way to conceptualize this nesting is through a mean-ends hierarchy.… read more here.

Abstract: Unsurprisingly, victims and perpetrators often view aggressive behaviors differently.

The current study included 408 participants who recalled a time when they… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/1747021818821935
Abstract: Humans can perceive affordances (possibilities for action) for themselves and others, including the maximum overhead height reachable by jumping (reach-with-jump height, RWJ). While observers can accurately perceive maximum RWJ for another person without previously seeing… read more here.
