A cross-cultural investigation into the influence of eye gaze on working memory for happy and angry faces (2020)
Journal Article
Gregory, S., Langton, S., Yoshikawa, S., & Jackson, M. (2020). A cross-cultural investigation into the influence of eye gaze on working memory for happy and angry faces. Cognition and Emotion, 34(8), 1561-1572. https://doi.org/10.1080/02699931.2020.1782353

Previous long-term memory (LTM) research found that angry faces were more poorly recognised when encoded with averted vs. direct gaze, while memory for happy faces was unaffected by gaze. Contrastingly, working memory (WM) accuracy for angry faces wa... Read More about A cross-cultural investigation into the influence of eye gaze on working memory for happy and angry faces.

Weak memory for future-oriented feedback : investigating the roles of attention and improvement focus (2019)
Journal Article
Gregory, S., Winstone, N., Ridout, N., & Nash, R. (2020). Weak memory for future-oriented feedback : investigating the roles of attention and improvement focus. Memory, 28(2), 216-236. https://doi.org/10.1080/09658211.2019.1709507

Recent research showed that people recall past-oriented, evaluative feedback more fully and accurately than future-oriented, directive feedback. Here we investigated whether these memory biases arise from preferential attention toward evaluative feed...

Barriers block the effect of joint attention on working memory : perspective taking matters (2018)
Journal Article
Gregory, S., & Jackson, M. (2019). Barriers block the effect of joint attention on working memory : perspective taking matters. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 45(5), 795-806. https://doi.org/10.1037/xlm0000622

Joint focus of attention between two individuals can influence the way that observers attend, encode, and value items. Using a nonpredictive gaze cuing task we previously found that working memory (WM) was better for jointly attended (validly cued) v...

A memory advantage for past-oriented over future-oriented performance feedback (2018)
Journal Article
Nash, R., Winstone, N., Gregory, S., & Papps, E. (2018). A memory advantage for past-oriented over future-oriented performance feedback. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 44(12), 1864-1879. https://doi.org/10.1037/xlm0000549

People frequently receive performance feedback that describes how well they achieved in the past, and how they could improve in future. In educational contexts, future-oriented (directive) feedback is often argued to be more valuable to learners than...

Joint attention enhances visual working memory (2016)
Journal Article
Gregory, S., & Jackson, M. (2017). Joint attention enhances visual working memory. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 43(2), 237-249. https://doi.org/10.1037/xlm0000294

Joint attention—the mutual focus of 2 individuals on an item—speeds detection and discrimination of target information. However, what happens to that information beyond the initial perceptual episode? To fully comprehend and engage with our immediate... Read More about Joint attention enhances visual working memory.

Understanding the impact of visual arts interventions for people living with dementia : a realist review protocol (2014)
Journal Article
Windle, G., Gregory, S., Newman, A., Goulding, A., O'Brien, D., & Parkinson, C. (2014). Understanding the impact of visual arts interventions for people living with dementia : a realist review protocol. Systematic Reviews, 3, 91. https://doi.org/10.1186/2046-4053-3-91

Background Arts-based activities are being increasingly suggested as a valuable activity for people living with dementia in terms of countering the negative aspects of their condition. The potential for such programmes to improve a broad range of ps... Read More about Understanding the impact of visual arts interventions for people living with dementia : a realist review protocol.

Lost in art too : challenging perceptions of dementia (2013)
Journal Article
Gregory, S., & Windle, G. (2013). Lost in art too : challenging perceptions of dementia

Samantha Gregory and Gill Windle report on their evaluation of an innovative project that brought together schoolchildren to work alongside people with dementia on an art project – and changed perceptions along the way
