Trial type mixing substantially reduces the response set effect in the Stroop task (2018)
Journal Article
Hasshim, N., & Parris, B. A. (2018). Trial type mixing substantially reduces the response set effect in the Stroop task. Acta psychologica, 189, 43--53. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actpsy.2017.03.002

The response set effect refers to the finding that an irrelevant incongruent colour-word produces greater interference when it is one of the response options (referred to as a response set trial), compared to when it is not (a non-response set trial)...

Applied screening tests for the detection of superior face recognition (2018)
Journal Article
Bate, S., Frowd, C., Bennetts, R., Hasshim, N., Murray, E., Bobak, A. K., …Richards, S. (2018). Applied screening tests for the detection of superior face recognition. Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications / Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications - a SpringerOpen journal, 3(22), 1--19. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41235-018-0116-5

In recent years there has been growing interest in the identification of people with superior face recognition skills, for both theoretical and applied investigations. These individuals have mostly been identified via their performance on a single at... Read More about Applied screening tests for the detection of superior face recognition.

Assessing stimulus--stimulus (semantic) conflict in the Stroop task using saccadic two-to-one color response mapping and preresponse pupillary measures (2015)
Journal Article
Hasshim, N., & Parris, B. A. (2015). Assessing stimulus--stimulus (semantic) conflict in the Stroop task using saccadic two-to-one color response mapping and preresponse pupillary measures. Attention, Perception, and Psychophysics, 77, 2601--2610. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13414-015-0971-9

Conflict in the Stroop task is thought to come from various stages of processing, including semantics. Two-to-one response mappings, in which two response-set colors share a common response location, have been used to isolate stimulus–stimulus (seman...

Two-to-one color-response mapping and the presence of semantic conflict in the Stroop task (2014)
Journal Article
Hasshim, N., & Parris, B. A. (2014). Two-to-one color-response mapping and the presence of semantic conflict in the Stroop task. Frontiers in Psychology, 5, 1157. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.01157

A series of recent studies have utilized the two-to-one mapping paradigm in the Stroop task. In this paradigm, the word red might be presented in blue when both red and blue share the same-response key (same-response trials). This manipulation has be...

The cognitive underpinnings of emerging mathematical skills: Executive functioning, patterns, numeracy, and arithmetic (2011)
Journal Article
Lee, K., Ng, S. F., Pe, M. L., Ang, S. Y., Hasshim, N., & Bull, R. (2011). The cognitive underpinnings of emerging mathematical skills: Executive functioning, patterns, numeracy, and arithmetic. British Journal of Educational Psychology, 82(1), 82 - 99. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.2044-8279.2010.02016.x

Background: Exposure to mathematical pattern tasks is often deemed important for developing children's algebraic thinking skills. Yet, there is a dearth of evidence on the cognitive underpinnings of pattern tasks and how early competencies on these t...
