Not Good Enough: Ironic Efficiency in Automated-Aided Signal-Detection

Creator:: Munoz Gomez Andrade, Fernando
Abstract:: During applied signal-detection (e.g., airport-baggage screening) human operators can be assisted in their decision-making process by automated devices. Automation implementation is aimed at increasing performance relative to unaided levels. Generally, this intended effect is empirically observed. However, operators consistently fall short of optimal levels of aided performance, indicating suboptimal aid-use...

Metacognition, Numeracy, and Automation-aided Decision-making

Creator:: Gyles, Shannon P.
Abstract:: Automated decision aids can improve human decision-making but the benefits are often compromised by inefficient use. The current experiment examined whether metacognition—the ability to assess self-performance—and numeracy—the ability to understand and work with numbers—predict the efficiency of automation use in a signal detection task. Two-hundred twenty-one participants classified random dot...

Attention Capture in Visual Search: The Effects of Individual Visual Working Memory Capacity and Gaming Experience

Creator:: Hauck, Christopher
Abstract:: Prior research has demonstrated that unique and salient objects in a visual display may capture an individual’s attention. However, researchers have shown that some individuals, such as those with video game experience, are better at resisting salient-driven capture compared to others (Chisholm et al., 2010). The first manuscript presented in...

Mechanisms of Vigilance Loss in Sensory and Cognitive Tasks

Creator:: Gyles, Shannon P.
Abstract:: When observers monitor for infrequent signals for extended durations, they generally experience a decline in detections over time. This decline is termed the vigilance decrement. Current theories of vigilance attribute the decrement to three potential mechanisms: conservative shifts in response bias, losses of sensitivity, and an increased rate of attentional...

Beyond Pronouns: Unraveling the Impact of Misgendering on Wellbeing

Creator:: Grapentine, Jor
Abstract:: This study investigated the prevalence of misgendering and its impact on stigma and mental health outcomes in college students. Two hundred and eighty-five students participated in a comprehensive survey, providing insights into the frequency of misgendering they experienced, the level of stigma they felt in response, as well as their...

Implementation Science in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Utility Value Intervention in General Psychology Courses

Creator:: Soicher, Raechel N.
Abstract:: Despite the dissemination of comprehensive reviews and teacher-friendly resources describing evidence-based practices to improve student outcomes, the adoption of these practices is slow and inconsistent across instructors at colleges and universities. To help reduce this research-practice gap, I argue for the application of implementation science to teaching and learning research...

Modifying Perception: How Clothing and Context Influence the Objectification of Women

Creator:: Sherman, Megan
Abstract:: The objectification of women is a scourge of society, related to a host of negative mental and physical health implications for women. Objectification is largely influenced by the types of clothing worn. How much is objectification modified by contextual features (e.g., the situations the clothes are worn in)? In two...

Group Rapport and Nonverbal Expressivity

Creator:: Fultz, Amber A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis was to assess the relationship between group rapport and nonverbal expressivity using three data sources: self-report, observer ratings, and test data. Assessing these constructs using multiple data sources enabled the construction of multitrait-multimethod matrices. These matrices allowed for a critical evaluation of the convergent and...

Neural and Behavioral Components of Moral Elevation

Creator:: Lewis, Blanca M.
Abstract:: Moral elevation, or elevation, is a prosocial emotional state elicited by witnessing displays of altruism or moral beauty. For this study, medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and autonomic physiology activity were monitored during elevation induction. We hypothesized that changes would occur in mPFC activity during elevation and that these would significantly...

Effects of Priming an Academic or Athletic Identity on Task Persistence

Creator:: Byers, Stephanie
Abstract:: The effects of priming complex schemas within the context of one’s social group are understudied, and it is unknown whether activating these schemas can have temporary impacts on how we identify within our social group. I investigated how a set of dynamic primes intended to activate complex schemas (i.e., academic...
