Response Time Distribution Analysis of Semantic and Response Interference in a Manual Response Stroop Task (2019)
Journal Article
Hasshim, N., Downes, M., Bate, S., & Parris, B. A. (2019). Response Time Distribution Analysis of Semantic and Response Interference in a Manual Response Stroop Task. Experimental Psychology, 66(3), 231-238. https://doi.org/10.1027/1618-3169/a000445

Previous analyses of response time distributions have shown that the Stroop effect is observed in the mode (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of the normal part of the distribution, as well as its tail (τ). Specifically, interference related to semantic... Read More about Response Time Distribution Analysis of Semantic and Response Interference in a Manual Response Stroop Task.

The consistency of superior face recognition skills in police officers (2019)
Journal Article
Bate, S., Frowd, C., Bennetts, R., Hasshim, N., Portch, E., Murray, E., & Dudfield, G. (2019). The consistency of superior face recognition skills in police officers. Applied Cognitive Psychology, 33(5), 828--842. https://doi.org/10.1002/acp.3525

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in people with superior face recognition skills. Yet identification of these individuals has mostly relied on criterion performance on a single attempt at a single measure of face memory. The curren...

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)...

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...
