A novel ecological momentary assessment app for the investigation of daily cognitive functioning in breast cancer survivors: a feasibility study - Supportive Care in Cancer Purpose Breast cancer survivors often experience cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI), such as problems with memory and attention. However, typical neuropsychological test batteries are unable t...

My first study from my PhD has been published! This paper investigates the feasibility, usability and validity of a mobile cognitive momentary assessment task in breast cancer survivors and a non-cancer control group. Read the paper below 👇

Facial emotion processing hemispheric bias is weakly associated with handedness, autistic traits and biological sex, but not age - BMC Psychology Background Right-hemisphere brain regions are strongly implicated in facial emotion processing (FEP), a phenomenon termed right-hemispheric bias. Variability in FEP hemispheric bias is thought to unde...

🥳 Excited to share that my paper, "Facial emotion processing hemispheric bias is weakly associated with handedness, autistic traits and biological sex, but not age," has been published open access 📖 in BMCPsychology: doi.org/10.1186/s403... 🧠 #Psychology #Research #Science @deakincnu.bsky.social
