  • What I think should be changed (include citations): Change from 'John Morton, OBE, FRS (born 1933) is an emeritus professor at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience and was the director of the former Medical Research Council (MRC) Cognitive Development Unit (CDU) at University College London' to 'John Morton, OBE, FRS (born 1933) is an emeritus professor at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience and was the director of the former Medical Research Council (MRC) in the Cognitive Development Unit (CDU) at University College London (1982-1998). He had previously worked at the MRC Applied Psychology Unit in Cambridge (1960-1982).'

From 'Morton's research and contributions to knowledge focus on event memory in adults and children; effects of memory on recall of events; types of memory system; memory pathologies; multiple personality disorder; cognitive models of memory; development of cognitive abilities; and causal models of developmental disorders, particularly autism and dyslexia' to 'Morton's research and contributions to knowledge focus on word recognition; aspects of short term memory; human-computer interaction; event memory in adults and children; types of memory system; multiple personality disorder; cognitive models of memory; development of cognitive abilities; and causal models of developmental disorders, particularly autism and dyslexia.'

From 'One of his most important theories is the logogen model of word recognition' to 'One of his most important theories is the logogen model of word recognition. Some of Morton's other theories include Perceptual Centres (P-Centres); Precategorical Acoustic Storage (PAS); Conspec; and Causal Modelling.'

From 'Morton has also worked, with Mark H. Johnson, on infant face recognition. They hypothesized that infants turning their heads to preferentially attend to faces or face-like images suggested they possessed rudimentary facial processing capacities [2][3]' to 'Morton has also worked with Mark H. Johnson on infant face recognition. They showed that new born infants (at 3o minutes old) turning their heads to preferentially attend to faces or face-like images suggested that they possessed innate rudimentary facial processing capacities which they called Conspec [1].'

Morton is a Fellow of the Royal Society[2].
