Visual-spatial-motor integration in a cross-section of primary-aged children: implications for assessing risk of Dyslexia (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Piotrowska, B., Willis, A., MacLean, R., Murray, J., & Kerridge, J. (2015). Visual-spatial-motor integration in a cross-section of primary-aged children: implications for assessing risk of Dyslexia. In Proceedings European Conference on Visual Perception ECVP 2015

Dyslexia is a common condition characterized by difficulties with reading and writing despite adequate intelligence, education and motivation. Many individuals with dyslexia also have problems integrating visual information over space and time, and /...

The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people. (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Murray, J., & Thomson, M. E. (2009). The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people.

The overarching aim of the present research was to investigate the possible effects of attribution on the decisions made by clinicians in comparison to those made by trainee psychologists and lay-people. A 3x3x2 mixed groups design was implemented,... Read More about The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people..
