DOI: 10.1002/hbm.23709
Abstract: Changes in the size of the attentional focus and task difficulty often co‐vary. Nevertheless, the neural processes underlying the attentional spotlight process and task difficulty are likely to differ from each other. To differentiate between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.24075
Abstract: Research using the Stop Signal Task employing an adaptive algorithm to accommodate individual differences often report inferior performance on the task in individuals with ADHD, OCD, and substance use disorders compared to non‐clinical controls. Furthermore,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00464-021-08321-4
Abstract: The presence of previous abdominal surgery (PAS) has traditionally been considered to add difficulty to and increase risk of complications of laparoscopic procedures. This study aims to analyse the impact of non-liver-related PAS on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10388-022-00913-w
Abstract: The traction assisted (TA) method has reduced the technical difficulty associated with esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, it is unclear which factors associated with difficulty have been improved by the TA-ESD method. We aimed… read more here.
