Characterizing the Digital Health Citizen: Mixed-Methods Study Deriving a New Typology
(2019-03)
Background: A key challenge for health systems harnessing digital tools and services is that of digital inclusion. Typically, digital inequalities are conceptualized in relation to unequal access or usage. However, these ...
Learning to optimize perceptual decisions through suppressive interactions in the human brain
(2019-01)
Translating noisy sensory signals to perceptual decisions is critical for successful interactions in complex environments. Learning is known to improve perceptual judgments by filtering external noise and task-irrelevant ...
Automated virtual reality (VR) cognitive therapy for patients with psychosis: study protocol for a single-blind parallel group randomised controlled trial (gameChange).
(2019-08)
Introduction Many patients with psychosis experience everyday social situations as anxiety-provoking. The fears can arise, for example, from paranoia, hallucinations, social anxiety or negative-self beliefs. The fears lead ...
Automated psychological therapy using virtual reality (VR) for patients with persecutory delusions: study protocol for a single-blind parallel-group randomised controlled trial (THRIVE)
(2019-01)
Persecutory delusions are a major psychiatric problem and are associated with a wide range of adverse outcomes. Our theoretical model views these delusions as unfounded threat beliefs which persist due to defence behaviours ...
Unimodal and bimodal access to sensory working memories by auditory and visual impulses

(2019-10)
Purpose: To describe physical activity (PA) levels and motivators and barriers to PA amongst haemodialysis (HD) patients and to identify an appropriate approach to increasing their PA.
Methods: A cross-sectional mixed ...
Clinicians’ use of and attitudes towards technology to provide and support interventions in child and adolescent mental health services
(2019-12)
Background:Technology can increase child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS) capacity by sup-porting and delivering interventions, yet it has not been widely adopted by CAMHS child mental health professionals. ...
Modulation of the pupillary response by the content of visual working memory
(2019-09)
Studies of selective attention during perception have revealed
modulation of the pupillary response according to the brightness
of task-relevant (attended) vs. -irrelevant (unattended) stimuli
within a visual display. ...
A Path Signature Approach for Speech Emotion Recognition
(2019-09)
Automatic speech emotion recognition (SER) remains a
difficult task within human-computer interaction, despite increasing
interest in the research community. One key challenge
is how to effectively integrate short-term ...
