Control data from tests of face and object processing with children aged 7-1...
Dataset resulting from face and object processing tests carried out with children aged 7-12 years in North America, to assess face identity memory, face identity perception,... -
Investigation of contrast effects in children with autism 2009-2011
Categorization decisions that reflect constantly changing memory representations may be an important adaptive response to dynamic environments. We assessed one such influence... -
Functional magnetic resonance imaging data of brain area activity when recogn...
Data resulting from an experiment which used brain scanning or functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the brain areas active when recognising facial... -
Public perceptions of climate change and personal experience of flooding
The presented data was collected to examine the role of extreme weather as an influence on public perception of climate change through a focus on people's responses to the... -
Economics of perceptual and motor decisions in childhood
This collection includes data from a series of laboratory behavioural experiments. The experiments investigate several aspects of perception, action and decision-making during... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 4
Here we present data corresponding to a study in which we designed and tested a shoe-based prototype that senses a person's footsteps and alters in real-time the frequency... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 3
Here we present data that include subjective reports, electrodermal activity changes and behavioural data corresponding to hand tapping behaviour from individuals interacting... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 1
Here we present data corresponding to a study in which we investigated the necessary conditions to induce changes in the represented length of the arm when manipulating the... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 2
Here we present data that include subjective reports and behavioural data corresponding to finger touch behaviour from individuals interacting with a sonic interactive surface.... -
Understanding speech in the presence of other speech: Perceptual mechanisms f...
The datasets comprise transcriptions of stimuli (simplified analogues of spoken utterances) and associated keyword scores (proportion correct). The transcriptions are those... -
One step ahead: Prediction of other people's behavior in healthy and autistic...
The data collection contains the data for five independent publications, published as part of the ESRC grant “One step ahead: Prediction of other people's behavior in healthy... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 5
Here we present data corresponding to a study in which we looked at how body-representation changes influence goal-directed actions. Participants reached for a target object... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 6
Here we present data corresponding to a study in which we investigated whether non-body specific and non-movement related auditory stimuli modulate body-representation. Drawing... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 7
Data corresponding to a proof-of-principle pilot study investigating the potential value of using sound feedback for altering body-perception disturbances (BPD) and its related... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 8
People’s mental representations of their own body are malleable and continuously updated through sensory cues. Altering one’s body-representation can lead to changes in object... -
Looking time and eye-tracking dwell times from infant numerical perception ex...
These data files largely contain preferential looking data for pairs of experiments that were run in tandem. One file (relating to Experiment 19 and 20) contains Tobii eye... -
The hearing body: Experimental data, Part 9
When we drop an object from our hands, we use internal models of both our body height and object-motion to predict when it will hit the floor. What happens if the sensory... -
Household survey of climate change perception and adaptation strategies of sm...
The data archived here were collected as part of a household survey of smallholder coffee and basic farmers’ perceptions and adaptations to climate change. The data includes... -
