Boundaries of Social Cognition Lab |
Investigates the malleability of social cognition and its neural correlates, utilizing perception, memory and attention paradigms, manipulation of social and object categories and affect with static and dynamic visual stimuli, psycho-physiological recording of the galvanic skin reflex (GSR), eye movement, facial electromyography (EMG), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). |
