Journal Article
Ramke, J., Kuper, H., Limburg, H., Kinloch, J., Zhu, W., Lansingh, V. C., …Gilbert, C. E. (2018). Avoidable waste in ophthalmic epidemiology: A review of blindness prevalence surveys in low and middle income countries 2000–2014. Ophthalmic Epidemiology, 25(1), 13-20. https://doi.org/10.1080/09286586.2017.1328067

Purpose: Sources of avoidable waste in ophthalmic epidemiology include duplication of effort, and survey reports remaining unpublished, gaining publication after a long delay, or being incomplete or of poor quality. The aim of this review was to asse... Read More about Avoidable waste in ophthalmic epidemiology: A review of blindness prevalence surveys in low and middle income countries 2000–2014.

A concurrent-choice analysis of amount-dependent temporal discounting (2013)
Journal Article
Kinloch, J. M., & White, K. G. (2013). A concurrent-choice analysis of amount-dependent temporal discounting. Behavioural Processes, 97, 1-5. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.beproc.2013.03.007

Amount-dependent temporal discounting refers to the differential rates at which the values of large and small rewards are discounted over time. A lower rate of discounting of larger rewards is known as the magnitude effect. The present study aimed to... Read More about A concurrent-choice analysis of amount-dependent temporal discounting.

Matching-to-sample and stimulus-pairing-observation procedures in stimulus equivalence: The effects of number of trials and stimulus arrangement (2013)
Journal Article
Kinloch, J. M., McEwan, J. S. A., & Foster, T. M. (2013). Matching-to-sample and stimulus-pairing-observation procedures in stimulus equivalence: The effects of number of trials and stimulus arrangement. Psychological Record, 63(1), 157-174. https://doi.org/10.11133/j.tpr.2013.63.1.012

Studies comparing the effectiveness of the stimulus-pairing-observation and matching-to-sample procedures in facilitating equivalence relations have reported conflicting findings. This study compared the effectiveness of these procedures and examined...

Lessons learnt from growing up in New Zealand. Evaluation and the Health Professions, 37(4), 411-433. https://doi.org/10.1177/0163278712462717

Growing Up in New Zealand, a longitudinal study following nearly 7,000 children, has faced some unique challenges in identifying, enrolling, and retaining a large and diverse antenatal cohort. Identification of a study region with population demograp... Read More about How do you recruit and retain a prebirth cohort? Lessons learnt from growing up in New Zealand.

The effects of session length on demand functions generated using FR schedules (2011)
Journal Article
Foster, T. M., Kinloch, J., & Poling, A. (2011). The effects of session length on demand functions generated using FR schedules. Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 95(3), 289-304. https://doi.org/10.1901/jeab.2011.95-289

In comparing open and closed economies, researchers often arrange shorter sessions under the former condition than under the latter. Several studies indicate that session length per se can affect performance and there are some data that indicate that...

Extinction-induced variability in human behavior (2009)
Journal Article
Kinloch, J. M., Foster, T. M., & Mcewan, J. S. (2009). Extinction-induced variability in human behavior. Psychological Record, 59(3), 347-370. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf03395669

Participants earned points by pressing a computer space bar (Experiment 1) or forming rectangles on the screen with the mouse (Experiment 2) under differential-reinforcement-of-low-rate schedules, followed by extinction. Variability in interresponse... Read More about Extinction-induced variability in human behavior.
