Research

My research spans several topics in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience, though my primary focus is in higher level cognition. Recently, my lab’s research has predominantly focused on the interplay between intuitive and analytic processes supporting complex Reasoning and Decision Making. These decisions may involve analogical, deductive, or probabilistic information. Our lab has also extended our lines of inquiry to look at the role of intuitive and analytic processes in real world domains, such as creativity, moral judgments, religious beliefs, and technology use.
