Research Interests
My research interests include object recognition, cognitive control, attentional selection, and dynamic field theory. My current major focus is on studying the time-varying behavior displayed by people in various standard cognitive paradigms using hazard analysis, and how this behavior constrains theory development. My methods comprise behavioral methods, fMRI, and the microanalysis of response time distributions (hazard, survival, transition, duration, failure-time, or event history analysis).external page
