Gomes-Ng S, Cowie S, Elliffe D
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) . 2024 Oct; :17470218241293418. PMID: 39439033
Humans often behave as if unrelated events are causally related. As the name suggests, such imply failures to detect the absence of a causal relation. Taking a signal detection approach,...

Ahdar R, Boyd B, Chaudhuri A, Clements K, Cooper G, Elliffe D, et al.
Science . 2024 Jul; 385(6705):151-152. PMID: 38991071

Gomes-Ng S, Cowie S, Elliffe D
J Exp Anal Behav . 2023 Aug; 120(3):344-362. PMID: 37581958
We investigated the effects of differential and nondifferential reinforcers on divided control by compound-stimulus dimensions. Six pigeons responded in a delayed matching-to-sample procedure in which a blue or yellow sample...

Gomes-Ng S, Cowie S, Elliffe D
J Exp Anal Behav . 2023 May; 120(2):171-185. PMID: 37184425
Organisms may sometimes behave as if a contingency exists between behavior and consequences, even if this is not actually the case. Killeen (1978) suggested that such superstition occurs because of...

Gomes-Ng S, Kim P, Cowie S, Elliffe D
J Exp Anal Behav . 2023 Apr; 120(2):155-170. PMID: 37092699
Stimulus overselectivity describes strong control by one stimulus element at the expense of other equally relevant elements. Research suggests that control by underselected stimuli emerges following extinction of the overselected...

Gomes-Ng S, Baharrizki D, Cowie S, Elliffe D, Bai J
Behav Processes . 2022 Jun; 200:104664. PMID: 35654309
When short-term memory is assessed in the delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) procedure, performance is better when cues signal larger reinforcer magnitudes or higher reinforcer probabilities for correct responding. Previous studies demonstrating...

Dirksen N, Langbein J, Schrader L, Puppe B, Elliffe D, Siebert K, et al.
Curr Biol . 2021 Sep; 31(17):R1033-R1034. PMID: 34520709
Indiscriminate voiding of excreta by cattle contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and soil and water contamination. Emissions are higher in animal-friendly husbandry offering cattle more space - a trade-off...

Dirksen N, Langbein J, Schrader L, Puppe B, Elliffe D, Siebert K, et al.
Animals (Basel) . 2020 Oct; 10(10). PMID: 33076551
Untrained cattle do not defecate or urinate in defined locations. The toilet training of cattle would allow urine and faeces to be separated and stored, reducing climate-damaging emissions and improving...

Dirksen N, Langbein J, Matthews L, Puppe B, Elliffe D, Schrader L
Neurosci Biobehav Rev . 2020 May; 115:5-12. PMID: 32461081
Typically, cattle urinate and defecate with little or no control over time and place. The resulting excreta contributes to a range of adverse effects on the environment and the animals...

Gomes-Ng S, Macababbad A, Bai J, Baharrizki D, Elliffe D, Cowie S
Behav Processes . 2020 Feb; 174:104088. PMID: 32092454
When reinforcer availability on one alternative of a concurrent schedule is signaled by a discriminative stimulus, responding on that alternative decreases. We investigated how the correlation between signal presentation and...
