Overview

I am an experimental cognitive psychologist with interests in human attention and performance, psycholinguistics and working memory.

Qualifications

MA DPhil (Oxon)

Career

After an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Philosophy, and a doctorate in experimental psychology, both at Oxford, I held postdoctoral fellowships at Stanford, Bell Labs (Murray Hill NJ) and Oxford.  I was then an assistant professor in the Department of Behavioural Sciences at the  University of Chicago for several years, a lecturer in Experimental Psychology at Cambridge (and fellow of Pembroke College) for many more, and was appointed to a chair in Cognitive Psychology at Exeter in 1999. I retired in 2018, but remain active in research, currently with a Leverhulme Emeritus Fellowship grant.

Research interests

Experimental cognitive psychology

  • Attention and performance, especially control of mental processes (also known as "executive function" or "attentional control"). My research for the last two decades or so has focused on control of "task-set" -- how we organise our minds/brains to perform a particular cognitive task, and how we switch between tasks.
  • Psycholinguistics: I have worked on recognition of written and spoken words, strategic control of routes in reading aloud, aspects of speech production (word selection, phonological encoding and articulatory programming), relation between speech input and speech output processing, phonological buffers in working memory, the bilingual lexicon.
  • Memory for recent occurrence, i.e. knowing that one has seen someone/something recently.

The majority of my work has used chronometric behavioural measures with normal adult subjects, and (in collaboration with Aureliu Lavric and Heike Elchlepp) EEG/ERP.  But I have also collaborated in projects studying brain-damaged patients, and using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and eyetracking in normal adults.

Research projects

For the last 3 decades or more, my main research interest had been control of task-set, studied largely through experiments on task-switching.  Recent publications focus on the attentional component of task-set, and the contribution of "attentional inertia" to the costs of switching tasks, in several domains, including attention to voices, and switching between linguistic and non-linguistic processing of verbal stimuli.

My current Leverhulme Emeritus Fellowship project is on acquisition of novel tasks: the process of developing an efficient "procedural" representation of a new task from instructions and feedback.

Other active areas of research include word production, and language switching.
