ABOUT THE RESEARCH

About the research

How much of the workings of the mind that never reach awareness can be revealed by measuring behavior — reaction times, accuracy, eye movements — in tightly controlled experiments? The lab's studies of attentional control, learning through experience, and impression formation from faces all connect to this question.
