Spatial suppression (SS) is a visual perceptual phenomenon that is manifest in a reduction of directional sensi-
tivity for drifting high-contrast gratings whose size exceeds the center of the visual field. Gratings moving at faster
velocities induce stronger SS. The neural processes that give rise to such size- and velocity-dependent reductions
in directional sensitivity are currently unknown, and the role of surround inhibition is unclear. In magneto-
encephalogram (MEG), large high-contrast drifting gratings induce a strong gamma response (GR), which also
attenuates with an increase in the gratings’ velocity. It has been suggested that the slope of this GR attenuation is
mediated by inhibitory interactions in the primary visual cortex. Herein, we investigate whether SS is related to
this inhibitory-based MEG measure. We evaluated SS and GR in two independent samples of participants: school-
age boys and adult women. The slope of GR attenuation predicted inter-individual differences in SS in both
samples. Test-retest reliability of the neuro-behavioral correlation was assessed in the adults, and was high be-
tween two sessions separated by several days or weeks. Neither frequencies nor absolute amplitudes of the GRs
correlated with SS, which highlights the functional relevance of velocity-related changes in GR magnitude caused
by augmentation of incoming input. Our findings provide evidence that links the psychophysical phenomenon of
SS to inhibitory-based neural responses in the human primary visual cortex. This supports the role of inhibitory
interactions as an important underlying mechanism for spatial suppression.

Personality psychology owes much of its cumulative success to self- and informant-report
assessment. Report-based trait constructs are reliable, replicable, predictive, and useful for organising a
wide range of findings. This paper argues that their success should be understood not only
methodologically, but also theoretically. I propose the attributional model of personality reporting,
according to which self- and informant-reported traits are ...

Background:
Numerous studies have shown that indigenous populations experience poorer health outcomes compared to people with other backgrounds. However, the interpretation of these disparities remains challenging due to differences in living conditions and social environments, as well as by potential measurement-related biases. Little is known about whether the underlying mechanisms of mental health outcomes differ between ...

Cognitive distortions are routinely described in cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and rational-emotive behavior (REBT) therapies as “errors in logic” or “illogical thinking.” While this terminology is pedagogically convenient, it often obscures a crucial conceptual distinction between violations of logical inference and problems related to the justification, scope, or evaluative force of belief content. In this paper, we do not ...

The article is devoted to the study of subjectness phenomenon in higher education.
Subjectness is considered as a person’s ability for active creative actions, self-determination,
and transformation of reality. The main theoretical approaches to understanding subjectness
269in psychological and pedagogical discourse are analyzed. Techniques for developing students’
subjectivity are presented, including coaching, techniques for developing critical thinking,

Interpersonal synchrony is increasingly conceptualized not as a static marker of rapport but as a dynamic, context-sensitive process that fluctuates across interactional phases to serve distinct relational functions. This study examined whether movement synchrony—absolute, non-absolute, client-leading, and counsellor-leading—was associated with therapeutic alliance in naturally occurring counselling sessions. Twenty-seven video recordings were analysed using motion energy ...

Introduction. The article presents a systematic review of psychological research focusing on metacognitive regulation of learning effectiveness through digital educational technologies (DET). Digital technologies are often used in education. Over the past years, self-regulated learning, i.e., the practice of using digital technologies to manage learning activities, has been gaining momentum. However, the specifics of such ...

Rectangularity can be an a priori constraint for the visual system to recover a 3D shape from a 2D image. Two psychophysical experiments (n = 16 each) were conducted to test whether observers are biased to perceive trihedral corners as rectangular and whether this bias is perceptual rather than a response bias. The results of ...

Emotion regulation is aimed to control emotional states through various strategies, among which reappraisal and suppression have been extensively studied up to date. Nevertheless, physiological correlates of this process are still debatable, since findings on both brain and peripheral activity are contradictory. In the present work, we were first to investigate neural sources and inter-subject ...
