Additional research interests include Neural and Behavioral Psychology Studies, Neural dynamics and brain function, Mental Health Research Topics, and Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research.

Ralph R. Miller has contributed to numerous publications, with recent papers including:

  • Failures of memory and the fate of forgotten memories, 2021, Neurobiology of Learning and Memory
  • Testing improves performance as well as assesses learning: A review of the testing effect with implications for models of learning., 2022, Journal of Experimental Psychology Animal Learning and Cognition
  • More frequent, shorter trials enhance acquisition in a training session: There is a free lunch!, 2021, Journal of Experimental Psychology General
  • Adaptive Memory: Generality of the Parent Processing Effect and Effects of Biological Relatedness on Recall, 2020, Evolutionary Psychological Science
  • Retroactive interference: Counterconditioning and extinction with and without biologically significant outcomes., 2020, Journal of Experimental Psychology Animal Learning and Cognition

Their frequent coauthors include Cody W. Polack, James E. Witnauer, Robin A. Murphy, Jérémie Jozefowiez, and Santiago Castiello. These collaborations have appeared in various journals, particularly in:

  • Journal of Experimental Psychology Animal Learning and Cognition
  • Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology
  • Journal of Experimental Psychology General
  • Experimental Psychology (formerly Zeitschrift für Experimentelle Psychologie)
  • Neurobiology of Learning and Memory

Ralph R. Miller's research delves into the interplay of learning mechanisms and memory processes, often investigating the experimental conditions that influence cognitive performance and behavioral outcomes in both humans and animals. Their work contributes to understanding how memory functions and adapts, particularly in laboratory settings designed to explore biological significance and cognitive training regimes.
