The effect of misophonia on cognitive and social judgments Open

Heather A. Hansen, Andrew B. Leber, Zeynep M. Saygin · 2024

Misophonia, a heightened aversion to certain sounds, turns common cognitive and social exercises (e.g., paying attention during a lecture near a pen-clicking classmate, coexisting at the dinner table with a food-chomping relative) into cha…

Joint contributions of preview and task instructions on visual search strategy selection Open

Tianyu Zhang, Jessica Irons, Heather A. Hansen, Andrew B. Leber · 2024

People tend to employ suboptimal attention control strategies during visual search. Here we question why people are suboptimal, specifically investigating how knowledge of the optimal strategies and the time available to apply such strateg…

Curation of FOAMS: a Free Open-Access Misophonia Stimuli Database Open

Dean Orloff, Danielle Benesch, Heather A. Hansen · 2023

Misophonia is a disorder of decreased tolerance to certain “trigger” sounds (e.g., chewing, tapping, clicking). While misophonia research is scant in general, studies presenting sounds are especially rare and methodologically variable, lik…

Neural evidence for non-orofacial triggers in mild misophonia Open

Heather A. Hansen, Patricia Stefancin, Andrew B. Leber, Zeynep M. Saygin · 2022

Misophonia, an extreme aversion to certain environmental sounds, is a highly prevalent yet understudied condition plaguing roughly 20% of the general population. Although neuroimaging research on misophonia is scant, recent work showing hi…

Innate connectivity patterns drive the development of the visual word form area Open

Jin Li, David E. Osher, Heather A. Hansen, Zeynep M. Saygin · 2020

What determines the functional organization of cortex? One hypothesis is that innate connectivity patterns, either structural or functional connectivity, set up a scaffold upon which functional specialization can later take place. We teste…

Does task switching ability predict the selection of attentional control strategies? Open

Dana Shaw, Heather A. Hansen, Molly R. McKinney, Jessica Irons, Andrew B. Leber · 2020

When performing visual search, like looking for a friend in a crowd, there are many search strategies one can employ. Recent work has shown people often use suboptimal strategies, although there are vast individual differences for such cho…

Adults vs. neonates: Differentiation of functional connectivity between the basolateral amygdala and occipitotemporal cortex Open

Heather A. Hansen, Jin Li, Zeynep M. Saygin · 2020

The amygdala, a subcortical structure known for social and emotional processing, consists of multiple subnuclei with unique functions and connectivity patterns. Tracer studies in adult macaques have shown that the basolateral subnuclei dif…

An exploration of trait variables predicting the goal-directed control of visual attention Open

Molly R. McKinney, Heather A. Hansen, Jessica Irons, Andrew B. Leber · 2019

When approaching a visual search, there are many strategies you can use to bias your attention – some more optimal than others. Vast individual differences in strategy exist and many individuals fail to use the optimal strategy. What facto…
