New paper out in Psychological Research @springernature.com
Younger faces map to the left, older faces to the right. This spatial bias is stronger when age is task-relevant, but it can emerge implicitly too.

New paper out!
Mind wandering "leaves" a trace in our eyes.
We show that tiny, involuntary eye movements (microsaccades) reveal when our mind drifts away from the task at hand.

What we eat says who we are.
Our new cross cultural study shows that people prioritise foods linked to their own culture.

Do we really need real faces? Our new paper tests whether schematic faces are just as powerful in guiding attention
