Over the years, numerous students have contributed to the work of the Cognition Lab at Denison. Unfortunately, I do not have an exhaustive catalog of every student or every project, but this page highlights some of the individuals and their contributions (like human memory, there is an obvious recency effect). I have been constantly impressed by these students and the things they go on to do once they graduate from Denison.
