DOI: 10.1007/s00426-018-1091-7
Abstract: A classic example of discriminatory behavior is keeping spatial distance from an out-group member. To explain this social behavior, the literature offers two alternative theoretical options that we label as the “threat hypothesis” and the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.adro.2020.100637
Abstract: Abstract Radiation therapy is an effective treatment for pediatric cancers, yet requires immobilization and often anesthesia for precision treatment. Patients with Down syndrome are at increased risk for anesthesia-associated complications. We have implemented an audiovisual… read more here.
