Research in TAC Lab explores different aspects of human visual cognition, including visual attention, human perception, and memory. A primary focus of our research centers on understanding how the visual system operates within dynamic visual environments. We apply cognitive paradigms to study the functioning of fundamental cognitive processes in settings that resemble real-world scenarios, employing a range of behavioral methods including computer-based tasks, eye tracking, and virtual reality.
Below are a number of project topics that we are interested.
Attention
Attention
Multiple object tracking, visual search, and the pop-out effect
Various examinations of the influence of individual differences on cognitive performance
Relationship between attention and memory systems
How classic visual attention effects (e.g. flanker effect, inhibition of return, Ternus illusion) are impacted by VR
Perception
Perception
An examination of factors influencing the Ternus illusion
Factors influencing the perception of variability
Visual biases impacting applied tasks
Influence of music (major vs. minor notes) on the processing of ambiguous stimuli
Depth perception and virtual reality
Memory
Memory
Working memory and stress and decision making
In-group and outgroup effects on memory, attention, and oculomotor behavior
Eyewitness memory
