Affective traits, including extraversion and emotion regulation, are important considerations in clinical psychology due to their associations with the occurrence of affective disorders. Previously, emotional real-world scenes have been shown to infl... Read More about The influence of stimuli valence, extraversion, and emotion regulation on visual search within real-world scenes.

Exposure Therapy (ET) has demonstrated its efficacy in the treatment of phobias, anxiety and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), however, it suffers a high drop-out rate because of too low or too high patient engagement in treatment. Virtual Reali... Read More about Within- and between-session prefrontal cortex response to virtual reality exposure therapy for acrophobia.

Triggering and measuring social inhibitory response in humans immersed in interactions with virtual humans (2017)
Journal Article

Neural basis of virtual reality exposure threatment (2017)
Journal Article
Landowska, A., Roberts, D., & Eachus, P. (2017). Neural basis of virtual reality exposure threatment. Annual review of cybertherapy and telemedicine (Print), 15, 16-18

Virtual reality exposure therapy (VRET) is an increasingly common treatment for a range of anxiety disorder, specific phobias, PTSD and addictions, however neural mechanisms supporting VRET are yet to be understood. This review summarises existing st... Read More about Neural basis of virtual reality exposure threatment.

A brief review of research using near-infrared spectroscopy to measure activation of the prefrontal cortex during emotional processing : the importance of experimental design (2016)
Journal Article

Resilience is an interesting concept in that it can be applied in similar, but different, ways in a variety of contexts. In this paper I look at the different meanings for the concept with a particular focus on individual resilience examined from a p...
