Our research currently focuses on Cognitive Control, Numerical Cognition, Causal Learning and Reasoning, and Methods Development. You can learn more about each line of research below.

Cognitive Control

To behave adaptively we must be able to bring our ongoing thoughts and actions into alignment with our current goals and context. This capacity, known as cognitive control, has been linked to a host of important outcomes, including early math and reading ability, emotion regulation, levels of mental and physical health, and success in the workplace. This line of our research explores how different processes related to cognitive control unfold over the course of a response (within-trial dynamics), are modulated by recent experience (cross-trial dynamics), and change across the life span (developmental dynamics).

Inhibitory Control

To behave adaptively we must be able to bring our ongoing thoughts and actions into alignment with our current goals and context. This capacity, known as cognitive control, has been linked to a host of important outcomes, including early math and reading ability, emotion regulation, levels of mental and physical health, and success in the workplace.

Attention and Distraction

To behave adaptively we must be able to bring our ongoing thoughts and actions into alignment with our current goals and context. This capacity, known as cognitive control, has been linked to a host of important outcomes, including early math and reading ability, emotion regulation, levels of mental and physical health, and success in the workplace.
