Journal Article
Baxter, J., Charles, K., Martin, M., & McGroarty, A. (2013). The relative influence of leading questions and negative feedback on response change on the Gudjonsson Suggestibility Scale (2): Implications for forensic interviewing. Psychology, Crime and Law, 19(3), 277-285. https://doi.org/10.1080/1068316x.2011.631538

The ‘Shift’ or response change measure of the Gudjonsson Suggestibility Scales (GSS 1 and 2) is assumed primarily to indicate acceptance of the negative feedback component of the GSS procedure. Using an adapted version of the question set that bears...

Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dickson, C., Prach, M., Fraser, J., Ingram, L., Barlow, P., Hutchison, G., Proudfoot, L., & Malone, E. (2012, February). Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation. Presented at NanoImpactNet-QNANO conference - European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Nanomaterials, Dublin, Ireland

Neutrophils, the rapid responders of the innate immune system, are central to the initial immune responses of a host to foreign particles. Circulating in the blood, they are the predominant leukocyte (40-75%), and are positioned to rapidly migrate to... Read More about Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation.

Involvement of Parachlamydia in bovine abortions in Scotland (2012)
Journal Article
Howie, F., Gidlow, J., Greub, G., Wheelhouse, N., Dagleish, M., & Longbottom, D. (2012). Involvement of Parachlamydia in bovine abortions in Scotland. Veterinary Journal, 193(2), 586-588. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2012.01.008

Bovine abortion represents a major animal welfare issue and a cause of substantial economic loss yet the rate of successful diagnosis remains low. Chlamydia-related organisms including Parachlamydia have recently emerged as putative cattle abortifaci... Read More about Involvement of Parachlamydia in bovine abortions in Scotland.

Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment (2012)
Journal Article
Havard, C., & Willis, A. (2012). Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment. Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 15(3), 249-260. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2011.12.007

A two-pronged study was conducted to investigate (a) pedestrians’ road-crossing behaviour and (b) perceptions of the walking environment, both before and after the installation of a marked crosswalk (zebra crossing) at a single case-study location in...

Contextualism as an Important Facet of Individualism-Collectivism: Personhood Beliefs Across 37 National Groups (2012)
Journal Article

Contextualism as an Important Facet of Individualism-Collectivism: Personhood Beliefs Across 37 National Groups. Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 44(1), 24-45. https://doi.org/10.1177/0022022111430255

Beliefs about personhood are understood to be a defining feature of individualism-collectivism (I-C), but they have been insufficiently explored, given the emphasis of research on values and self-construals. We propose the construct of contextualism,... Read More about Contextualism as an Important Facet of Individualism-Collectivism: Personhood Beliefs Across 37 National Groups.

The impact of exercise, adiposity and persistent viral infection on blood T-Cell phenotype and function (2012)
Thesis
Spielmann, G. The impact of exercise, adiposity and persistent viral infection on blood T-Cell phenotype and function. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/5682

Human ageing is associated with a progressive decline in the function of the immune system, commonly referred as immunosenescence. This is characterized by the shrinkage of the naïve T-cell repertoire and a concomitant accumulation of highly differen...

Drosophila poly suggests a novel role for the Elongator complex in insulin receptor-target of rapamycin signalling (2012)
Journal Article
Bolukbasi, E., Vass, S., Cobbe, N., Nelson, B., Simossis, V., Dunbar, D. R., & Heck, M. M. S. (2012). Drosophila poly suggests a novel role for the Elongator complex in insulin receptor-target of rapamycin signalling. Open Biology, 2(1), 110031-110031. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsob.110031

Multi-cellular organisms need to successfully link cell growth and metabolism to environmental cues during development. Insulin receptor–target of rapamycin (InR–TOR) signalling is a highly conserved pathway that mediates this link. Herein, we descri...
