DBT, FAP, and ACT: How empirically oriented are the new behavior therapy technologies?
(2004)Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Functional Analytic Psychotherapy have recently come under fire for “getting ahead of their data” (Corrigan, 2001). The current article presents a ... -

Deep convolutional networks do not classify based on global object shape
(2018)Deep convolutional networks (DCNNs) are achieving previously unseen performance in object classification, raising questions about whether DCNNs operate similarly to human vision. In biological vision, shape is arguably the ... -

Deictic Relational Responding, Empathy, and Experiential Avoidance as Predictors of Social Anhedonia: Further Contributions from Relational Frame Theory
(2012)Social anhedonia has been linked to the development and exacerbation of psychosis. The present study explored the hypothesis that scores in social anhedonia are related to deictic relational responding, empathic concern, ... -

Depth Without a Surface: Observations From a "Finger Spinner" Depth Illusion
(2017)A trending novelty toy that is spun between the fingers induces a striking depth illusion from specular reflections. Further examination of the phenomenon suggests that when surface features are obscured by spinning, depth ... -

Derived stimulus relations produce mediated and episodic priming
(1998)If derived stimulus relations can serve as a beginning behavioral model of semantic meaning, many of the cognitive findings shown with semantic relations should apply to derived stimulus relations. The present study examined ... -

Development and Preliminary Randomized Controlled Trial of a Distress Tolerance Treatment for Smokers With a History of Early Lapse
(2013)An inability to tolerate distress is a significant predictor of early smoking lapse following a cessation attempt. We conducted a preliminary randomized controlled trial to compare a distress tolerance (DT) treatment that ... -

Disequilibrium in behavior analysis: A disequilibrium theory redux
(2019)Disequilibrium theory is an approach to reinforcement that reconsiders the putative response strengthening prowess of stimuli. This disequilibrium approach-the pinnacle of the response deprivation hypothesis-reliably ... -

Distinct effects of contour smoothness and observer bias on visual persistence
(2017)Stable object perception relies on persistent yet temporary neural representations under constantly fluctuating stimulus conditions. The mechanisms by which such representations are formed and maintained are not fully ... -

Distress tolerance treatment for early-lapse smokers - Rationale, program description, and preliminary findings
(2008)A significant percentage of individuals attempting smoking cessation lapse within a matter of days, and very few are able to recover to achieve long-term abstinence. This observation suggests that many smokers may have ... -

Does Acceptance and Relationship Focused Behavior Therapy Contribute to Bupropion Outcomes? A Randomized Controlled Trial of Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Smoking Cessation
(2011)This study evaluated a treatment combining bupropion with a novel acceptance and relationship focused behavioral intervention based on the acceptance and relationship context (ARC) model. Three hundred and three smokers ... -

Dynamics of contrast adaptation in central and peripheral vision
(2019)Adaptation aftereffects are generally stronger for peripheral than for foveal viewing. We examined whether there are also differences in the dynamics of visual adaptation in central and peripheral vision. We tracked the ... -

Early Blindness Results in Developmental Plasticity for Auditory Motion Processing within Auditory and Occipital Cortex
(2016)Early blind subjects exhibit superior abilities for processing auditory motion, which are accompanied by enhanced BOLD responses to auditory motion within hMT+ and reduced responses within right planum temporale (rPT). ... -

Ecological Momentary Assessment of Head Motion: Toward Normative Data of Head Stabilization
(2019)Head stabilization is fundamental for balance during locomotion but can be impaired in elderly or diseased populations. Previous studies have identified several parameters of head stability with possible diagnostic value ... -

Ecology of Freedom: Competitive Tests of the Role of Pathogens, Climate, and Natural Disasters in the Development of Socio-Political Freedom
(2018)Many countries around the world embrace freedom and democracy as part of their political culture. However, culture is at least in part a human response to the ecological challenges that a society faces -

Editorial: Revisiting the Effectiveness of Transcranial Direct Current Brain Stimulation for Cognition: Evidence, Challenges, and Open Questions
(2017)Over the past 15 years, there has been an explosion of interest in the use of noninvasive brain stimulation approaches to study the brain. Some studies have suggested that transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in ... -

Eleven rules for a more successful clinical psychology
(2005)The recommendations put forth in the target article, “Twenty-First Century Graduate Education in Clinical Psychology: A Four Level Matrix Model” (C.R. Snyder & T.R. Elliott, this issue, pp. 1033-1054), should be regarded ... -

Embedded word priming elicits enhanced fMRI responses in the visual word form area
(2019)Lexical embedding is common in all languages and elicits mutual orthographic interference between an embedded word and its carrier. The neural basis of such interference remains unknown. We employed a novel fMRI prime-target ... -

Emotion regulation in acceptance and commitment therapy
(2001)Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers an alternative to traditional psychotherapies designed to regulate affect. ACT is based on the premise that normal cognitive processes distort and enhance the experience of ...
