Pownall, M., Azevedo, F., König, L. M., Slack, H. R., Evans, T. R., Flack, Z., …Sadhwani, S. (2023). Teaching open and reproducible scholarship: A critical review of the evidence base for current pedagogical methods and their outcomes. Royal Society Open Science, 10(5), Article 221255. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.221255

In recent years, the scientific community has called for improvements in the credibility, robustness and reproducibility of research, characterized by increased interest and promotion of open and transparent research practices. While progress has bee... Read More about Teaching open and reproducible scholarship: A critical review of the evidence base for current pedagogical methods and their outcomes.

Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science (2022)
Journal Article
Clark, K., Birch-Hurst, K., Pennington, C. R., Petrie, A. C. P., Lee, J. T., & Hedge, C. (2022). Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science. Journal of Vision, 22(8), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1167/jov.22.8.18

Research in perception and attention has typically sought to evaluate cognitive mechanisms according to the average response to a manipulation. Recently, there has been a shift toward appreciating the value of individual differences and the insight g... Read More about Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science.

Neural mechanisms underlying enhanced visual search performance in action video game players (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Birch-Hurst, K., Petrie, A. C. P., Archer, L., Stephenson, A. C., & Clark, K. (2021, May). Neural mechanisms underlying enhanced visual search performance in action video game players. Poster presented at Vision Sciences Society, Online

Individuals who play action video games have demonstrated faster response times on a range of cognitive tasks, but various changes across the chain of processing could contribute to the ultimate quickening in response. Some research has begun to iden... Read More about Neural mechanisms underlying enhanced visual search performance in action video game players.

The predictability of a target’s motion influences gaze, head, and hand movements when trying to intercept it (2019)
Journal Article
de la Malla, C., Rushton, S. K., Clark, K., Smeets, J. B. J., & Brenner, E. (2019). The predictability of a target’s motion influences gaze, head, and hand movements when trying to intercept it. Journal of Neurophysiology, 121(6), 2416-2427. https://doi.org/10.1152/jn.00917.2017

Does the predictability of a target’s movement and of the interception location influence how the target is intercepted? In a first experiment, we manipulated the predictability of the interception location. A target moved along a haphazardly curved...

Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Clark, K., Pennington, C. R., Hedge, C., Lee, J. T., & Petrie, A. C. P. (2019, May). Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science. Poster presented at Vision Sciences Society, St Pete Beach, Florida, United States

Historically, research in cognitive psychology has sought to evaluate cognitive mechanisms according to the average response to a manipulation. Differences between individuals have been dismissed as “noise” with an aim toward characterising an overal... Read More about Test-retest reliability for common tasks in vision science.

Enhanced visual attention in university hockey players (2018)
Journal Article
Clark, K., & Maddocks, M. (2018). Enhanced visual attention in university hockey players. Journal of Vision, 18(10),

Elite athletes exhibit enhanced cognitive abilities related to sport, and athletes' perceptual-cognitive expertise may also transfer to computer-based cognitive tasks in the laboratory (see Voss et al., 2010 for a meta-analysis). The research in this... Read More about Enhanced visual attention in university hockey players.

Visual search alpha: A novel window into lateralized visual attentional processes (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Bachman, M. D., van den Berg, B., Wang, L., Gamble, M. L., Clark, K., & Woldorff, M. G. (2018, March). Visual search alpha: A novel window into lateralized visual attentional processes. Poster presented at Cognitive Neuroscience Society, Boston, Massachusetts, United States

Visual search paradigms evoke the attentional processes used in the identification and processing of a target stimulus in an array of distracting items. A widely studied ERP component elicited in visual search is the N2pc, which is thought to reflect...

Knowing where one will hit a moving object influences eye-head-hand coordination (2017)
Presentation / Conference
de la Malla, C., Rushton, S. K., Clark, K., Smeets, J. B. J., & Brenner, E. (2017, September). Knowing where one will hit a moving object influences eye-head-hand coordination. Poster presented at European Conference on Visual Perception, Berlin, Germany

Does the predictability of a target's movement and of the interception location influence how the target is intercepted? In a first experiment, we manipulated the predictability of the interception location. A target moved along a haphazardly curved...

Who should be searching? Differences in personality can affect visual search accuracy (2017)
Journal Article
Biggs, A. T., Clark, K., & Mitroff, S. R. (2017). Who should be searching? Differences in personality can affect visual search accuracy. Personality and Individual Differences, 116, 353-358. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2017.04.045

© 2017 Visual search is an everyday task conducted in a wide variety of contexts. Some searches are mundane, such as finding a beverage in the refrigerator, and some have life-or-death consequences, such as finding improvised explosives at a security...

The role of motion parallax in the perception of egocentric direction (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Clark, K., & Rushton, S. K. (2017, May). The role of motion parallax in the perception of egocentric direction

Prisms optically rotate the visual scene relative to the head, but the error in perceived direction that results is less than the optical deflection of the prism. This is known as the immediate correction effect (Rock, Goldberg, & Mack, 1966). The ef... Read More about The role of motion parallax in the perception of egocentric direction.
