My current research examines the electrophysiological and behavioral indices of attentional limitations over time intervals of less than a second. The mind cannot attend to everything at once. The nature of the targets, the time between targets, and the presentation conditions are varied within and across experiments. Electrophysiological recordings are also taken while the participants perform such tasks. A list of representative publications are included below.
Laboratory includes performance of experiments, data analysis, and preparation of research reports.
Emphasis on conceptual understanding and practical usage of both statistics and methodology. Examines current behavioral and neuropsychological research and theory in the area of attention and thought processes. Laboratory experiments will demonstrate various attentional phenomena and highlight relevant design issuea. Intermediate experimental design and data analysis with emphasis on the analysis of variance and univariate regression models. Laboratory includes data analysis on the computer.
