Triggering and measuring neural response indicative of inhibition in humans during conversations with virtual humans (2020)
Thesis
Ahamba, G. Triggering and measuring neural response indicative of inhibition in humans during conversations with virtual humans. (Thesis). University of Salford

The aim of this PhD was to determine if a confrontational virtual human can evoke a response in the prefrontal cortex, indicative of inhibiting an antisocial response. It follows previous studies by Aleksandra Landowska (2018) and Schilbach (2016) de...

Exploring factors associated with upper-limb prosthesis embodiment : a mixed-methods approach
Thesis
Hodrien, A. Exploring factors associated with upper-limb prosthesis embodiment : a mixed-methods approach. (Thesis). University of Salford

Current rejection rates among upper-limb prosthesis users are particularly high. A significant psychological factor associated with prosthesis use is the extent to which users feel their prosthesis is a natural part of them (termed Prosthesis Embodim...

Measuring prefrontal cortex response to virtual reality exposure therapy in freely moving participants
Thesis
Landowska, A. (in press). Measuring prefrontal cortex response to virtual reality exposure therapy in freely moving participants. (Thesis). University of Salford

Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of phobias; yet little is known about its underlying neural mechanisms. Neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that both traditional exposure therapy and virtual reality expo...
