The COVID-19 lockdowns saw many individuals lose income, experience distress and increase intake of foods that would typically be considered less 'healthy' (more processed and less fresh produce). Establishing whether there are direct and indirect li... Read More about The association between COVID-19 related income loss and diet quality: The mediating role of distress..

Texting and the brain: The time-course of social brain activation in face-to-face versus text-based computer-mediated-communication (2023)
Journal Article
Sacristan, R., Royle, S., & Galpin, A. (2023). Texting and the brain: The time-course of social brain activation in face-to-face versus text-based computer-mediated-communication. #Journal not on list, 17(4), Article 3. https://doi.org/10.5817/CP2023-4-3

Through evolution, humans have adapted their interactions to face-to-face communication, supported by a network of neural systems which facilitate the transmission and interpretation of social signals for successful communication. However, emerging m... Read More about Texting and the brain: The time-course of social brain activation in face-to-face versus text-based computer-mediated-communication.

Pain Catastrophising Predicts Alcohol Hangover Severity and Symptoms (2020)
Journal Article
Royle, S., Owen, L., Roberts, D., & Marrow, L. (2020). Pain Catastrophising Predicts Alcohol Hangover Severity and Symptoms. Journal of Clinical Medicine, 9(1), 280. https://doi.org/10.3390/jcm9010280

Alcohol hangover is a cause of considerable social and economic burden. Identification of predictors of alcohol hangover severity have the potential to contribute to reductions in costs associated with both absenteeism/presenteeism and health care. P...

Decentering mediates the relationship between vmPFC activation during a stressor and positive emotion during stress recovery (2018)
Journal Article
Bendall, R., & Royle, S. (2018). Decentering mediates the relationship between vmPFC activation during a stressor and positive emotion during stress recovery. Journal of Neurophysiology, 120(5), 2379-2382. https://doi.org/10.1152/jn.00353.2018

The stress response has profound implications on health and behaviour and stress is considered a risk factor for the development of psychopathologies including depression. The neural mechanisms supporting successful stress recovery are not fully unde...
