My theoretical background is in ecological psychology - a great summary of this area of research can be found here. The central topic of investigation in my lab are affordances. My methods include virtual reality technology. The primary software packages we use are Unity Engine and C# to create virtual enviornments, MATLAB to process recorded data streams, and R to perform statistical analyses. I also use SPSS and JASP for simpler statistical analyses (ANOVA and t-test). 

Topics: affordances, (multi)fractals

Tools: VICON, Virtual Reality (Oculus), Pupil Labs Eye Tracker

Computing: MATLAB, Unity, C#

Stats: R,  JASP,  SPSS (as needed)
