DOI: 10.1007/s00426-017-0930-2
Abstract: Switching between tasks necessitates maintaining tasks in high readiness, yet readiness creates paradoxical interference from these tasks when they are not currently required. “Optimal suppression”, which targets just the interfering information, provides a partial solution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04707-8
Abstract: Ecological theory suggests that a combination of local and regional factors regulate biodiversity and community functioning in metacommunities. The relative importance of different factors structuring communities likely changes over successional time, but to date this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10071-019-01333-7
Abstract: How much nonhuman animals understand about seeing has been the focus of comparative cognition research for decades. Many social primates (and other species) are sensitive to cues about what others can and cannot see. Whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2022.104602
Abstract: Although both human and non-human animals, in everyday life, deal with risky decisions in a social environment, few studies investigated how social dimension influences risk preferences (i.e., if consequences on others feeds back over own… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2020.104509
Abstract: Ample evidence suggests that during word recognition and production, simultaneously activated lexical and sublexical representations interact, demonstrating varied patterns of facilitation and inhibition in various tasks and measures. A separate line of research has led… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/17470218231154578
Abstract: Previous research has found apparently contradictory effects of a semantically similar competitor on how people refer to previously mentioned entities. To address this issue, we conducted two picture-description experiments in spoken Mandarin. In Experiment 1,… read more here.
