24Current Emotion Research in Health Behavior ScienceEmotion Review 6 (3): 277-287. 2014.In the past two to three decades health behavior scientists have increasingly emphasized affect-related concepts (including, but not limited to emotion) in their attempts to understand and facilitate change in important health behaviors, such as smoking, eating, physical activity, substance abuse, and sex.

20The Exercise–Affect–Adherence Pathway: An Evolutionary PerspectiveFrontiers in Psychology 7 207868. 2016.The low rates of regular exercise and overall physical activity (PA) in the general population represent a significant public health challenge. Previous research suggests that, for many people, exercise leads to a negative affective response and, in turn, reduced likelihood of future exercise. The purpose of this paper is to examine this exercise–affect–adherence relationship from an evolutionary perspective. Specifically, we argue that low rates of physical exercise in the general population ar…Read more

95Metacognition may be more impaired than mindreading in autismBehavioral and Brain Sciences 32 (2): 162-163. 2009.This commentary focuses on evidence from autism concerning the relation between metacognition and mindreading. We support Carruthers' rejection of models 1 (independent systems) and 3 (metacognition before mindreading), and provide evidence to strengthen his critique. However, we also present evidence from autism that we believe supports model 2 (one mechanism, two modes of access) over model 4 (mindreading is prior)
