Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands (2019)
Journal Article
Buckingham, G., Parr, J., Wood, G., Day, S., Kenney, L., Galpin, A., …Poliakoff, E. (2019). Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands. Psychonomic Bulletin and Review, 26, 1295-1302. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13423-019-01612-x

The uncanny phenomenon describes the feeling of unease associated with seeing an image which is close to appearing human. Prosthetic hands in particular are well-known to induce this effect. Little is known, however, about this phenomenon from the vi... Read More about Upper- and lower-limb amputees show reduced levels of eeriness for images of prosthetic hands.

Upper limb activity in myoelectric prosthesis users is biased towards the intact limb and appears unrelated to goal-directed task performance (2018)
Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., Granat, M., Thies, S., Head, J., Galpin, A., & Baker, R. (2018). Upper limb activity in myoelectric prosthesis users is biased towards the intact limb and appears unrelated to goal-directed task performance. Scientific reports, 8, #11084. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-29503-6

Studies of the effectiveness of prosthetic hands involve assessing user performance on functional tasks in the lab/clinic, sometimes combined with self-report of real-world use. In this paper we compare real-world upper limb activity between a group...

Exploring the impact of hand movement delays and hand appearance on myoelectric prosthesis embodiment using immersive virtual reality (2017)
Journal Article
Hodrien, A., Galpin, A., Roberts, D., & Kenney, L. (2017). Exploring the impact of hand movement delays and hand appearance on myoelectric prosthesis embodiment using immersive virtual reality. Annual review of cybertherapy and telemedicine (Print), 15,

Prosthesis embodiment, the feeling of a prosthesis being part of the user, is reported by some prosthesis users. Myoelectric prostheses are electrically powered which produce a delay with fixed and variable components. The latter introduces uncertain...
