DOI: 10.1017/s095457942400155x
Abstract: Dimensional models of early life adversity highlight the distinct roles of deprivation and threat in shaping neurocognitive development and mental health. However, relatively little is known about the role of unpredictability within each dimension. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000003199
Abstract: ABSTRACT Despite being widely assumed, the worsening impact of unpredictability on pain perception remains unclear because of conflicting empirical evidence, and a lack of systematic integration of past research findings. To fill this gap, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0263373
Abstract: The capability to establish accurate predictions is an integral part of learning. Whether predictions about different dimensions of a stimulus interact with each other, and whether such an interaction affects learning, has remained elusive. We… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "PLOS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0298296
Abstract: Accumulating evidence indicates that unpredictable signals in early life represent a unique form of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) associated with disrupted neurodevelopmental trajectories in children and adolescents. The Questionnaire of Unpredictability in Childhood (QUIC) was… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1548676
Abstract: Background Evolutionary-developmental theories propose that early life adversity (ELA) shapes mating patterns. However, evidence is mixed, and the extent to which ELA influences attitudes and perceptions remains underexplored. This research takes a dimensional approach to… read more here.
