Sensitivity of IRT Equating to the Behavior of Test Equating Items
(2003)The delta-plot method is used to identify which common items in a common item nonequivalent groups design for test equating show large changes in their p-values across administrations. Outliers in that plot denote differential ...

Sensorimotor Alignment Effects in the Learning Environment and in Novel Environments
(2007)Four experiments investigated the conditions contributing to sensorimotor alignment effects (i.e., the advantage for spatial judgments from imagined perspectives aligned with the body). Through virtual reality technology, ...

Sensorimotor interference when reasoning about described environments
(2007)The influence of sensorimotor interference was examined in two experiments that compared pointing with iconic arrows and verbal responding in a task that entailed locating target-objects from imagined perspectives. ...

Sex differences and Autism: Brain function during verbal fluency and mental rotation
(2012)Autism spectrum conditions (ASC) affect more males than females. This suggests that the neurobiology of autism: 1) may overlap with mechanisms underlying typical sex-differentiation or 2) alternately reflect sex-specificity ...

Sex differences in frontal lobe connectivity in adults with autism spectrum conditions
(2017)Autism spectrum conditions (ASC) are more prevalent in males than females. The biological basis of this difference remains unclear. It has been postulated that one of the primary causes of ASC is a partial disconnection ...

Sex differences in response to a panicogenic challenge procedure: An experimental evaluation of panic vulnerability in a non-clinical sample
(2006)Epidemiological studies show that women are twice as likely as men to develop panic disorder (PD) during their lifetimes. Data from retrospective studies also suggest that women are more distressed by panic and other ...

Sex-specific impact of prenatal androgens on social brain default mode subsystems
(2018)Early-onset neurodevelopmental conditions (e.g., autism) affect males more frequently than females. Androgens may play a role in this male-bias by sex-differentially impacting early prenatal brain development, particularly ...

Shared neural circuits for mentalizing about the self and others
(2010)Although many examples exist for shared neural representations of self and other, it is unknown how such shared representations interact with the rest of the brain. Furthermore, do high-level inference-based shared mentalizing ...

A shift to randomness of brain oscillations in people with autism
(2010)Background Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) enables investigation of the intrinsic functional organization of the brain. Fractal parameters such as the Hurst exponent, H, describe the complexity ...

Signatures of cognitive difficulty in perspective-taking: is the egocentric perspective always the easiest to adopt?
(2018)In a series of experiments we examined factors that contribute to the difficulty of spatial perspective-taking and influence perspective selection. Listeners received instructions to select an object from a speaker whose ...
