General Psychology

Welcome to the General Psychology Lab!

Our research is concerned with the basic functions of the mind - in particular with decision making and how decisions are influenced by attention, learning and memory. We combine mathematical models of cognition with physiological and neuroscientfic methods (esp. eye tracking, fMRI, EEG) to achieve a comprehensive understanding of human cognition.
