Perceptual averaging on relevant and irrelevant featural dimensions Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Dale J. Cohen, Keith Allen · 2025

Here we report four experiments that explore the nature of perceptual averaging. We examine the evidence that participants recover and store a representation of the mean value of a set of perceptual features that are distributed across the…

A critical appraisal of the Dual Process account of moral judgment Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Dale J. Cohen · 2023

The Dual Process account asserts that moral judgments are the result of a competition between two independent decision processes: a utilitarian process and a deontological/affective process. We trace the development of the dual process acc…

In Vision It Is Groups, Rather Than Maps, That Determine How We Perceive the World Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Keith Allen, Dale J. Cohen · 2022

This paper presents the results of a study that used a speeded counting task to adjudicate between two competing theories of how perceptual representations of visual objects are derived. Boolean map (BM) theory assumes that there are stric…

A Novel Waveform-Tracking BLE Receiver Open

Suoping Hu, Peng Chen, Philip T. Quinlan, Robert Bogdan Staszewski · 2022

We present a first-ever waveform-tracking receiver (RX) with type-II phase-tracking loop. In this preprint, a novel nonlinear filter in the feedback path is proposed to obtain better interference rejection performance. This digital nonline…

Consciousness, motivation, and free will Open

Richard Wilton, Philip T. Quinlan · 2022

It is argued that the exercise of free will plays a part in the production of behaviour, with the argument focusing primarily on the implied roles of the various contents of consciousness, including, in particular, motivational states. Som…

What is it like to be colour‐blind? A case study in experimental philosophy of experience Open

Keith Allen, Philip T. Quinlan, James Andow, Eugen Fischer · 2021

What is the experience of someone who is “colour‐blind” like? This paper presents the results of a study that uses qualitative research methods to better understand the lived experience of colour blindness. Participants were asked to descr…

The item/order account of word frequency effects: Evidence from serial order tests Open

Ian Neath, Philip T. Quinlan · 2021

Further insights into the operation of the Chinese number system: Competing effects of Arabic and Mandarin number formats Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Dale J. Cohen, Xingyu Liu · 2020

Limited-capacity identity processing of multiple integers Open

Dale J. Cohen, Philip T. Quinlan · 2019

A Mathematical Model of How People Solve Most Variants of the Number‐Line Task Open

Dale J. Cohen, Daryn Blanc‐Goldhammer, Philip T. Quinlan · 2018

Current understanding of the development of quantity representations is based primarily on performance in the number‐line task. We posit that the data from number‐line tasks reflect the observer's underlying representation of quantity, tog…

The nature of shape constancy mechanisms as revealed by shape priming Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Keith Allen · 2018

Five shape priming experiments are reported in which the target was either a five- or six-sided line-drawn figure and participants made a speeded two-alternative forced-choice judgment about the target's number of sides. On priming trials,…

Correction to: Serial reconstruction of order and serial recall in verbal short-term memory Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Steven Roodenrys, Leonie M. Miller · 2018

The processing of images of biological threats in visual short-term memory Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Yue Yue, Dale J. Cohen · 2017

The idea that there is enhanced memory for negatively, emotionally charged pictures was examined. Performance was measured under rapid, serial visual presentation (RSVP) conditions in which, on every trial, a sequence of six photo-images w…

Serial reconstruction of order and serial recall in verbal short-term memory Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Steven Roodenrys, Leonie M. Miller · 2017

The log–linear response function of the bounded number-line task is unrelated to the psychological representation of quantity Open

Dale J. Cohen, Philip T. Quinlan · 2017

Supplementary material from "The processing of images of biological threats in visual short-term memory" Open

Philip T. Quinlan, Yue Yue, Dale J. Cohen · 2017

The idea that there is enhanced memory for negatively, emotionally charged pictures was examined. Performance was measured under rapid, serial visual presentation (RSVP) conditions in which, on every trial, a sequence of six photo-images w…

How numbers mean: Comparing random walk models of numerical cognition varying both encoding processes and underlying quantity representations Open

Dale J. Cohen, Philip T. Quinlan · 2016

Appraising the role of visual threat in speeded detection and classification tasks Open

Yue Yue, Philip T. Quinlan · 2015

This research examines the speeded detection and, separately, classification of photographic images of animals. In the initial experiments each display contained various images of animals and, in the detection task, participants responded …
