We study thought, communication, and psychopathology
In our new lab at the Hebrew University, we study how our thoughts follow one another, how we regulate and communicate our thoughts, and how individual differences in thought dynamics and regulation relate to psychopathology and social interaction.

We strive to elucidate the basic mechanisms that help us maintain a coherent train of thought and regulate thoughts and their expression in accordance with personal and interpersonal goals. We study these questions by integrating introspective, behavioral, computational, and neural measures of how people think and control their thoughts in solitary moments and during social interactions.

We believe that understanding these mechanisms can help elucidate a variety of mental health problems (e.g., psychosis, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder), and indeed, a considerable part of our research focuses on trying to understand the mechanisms underlying abnormal thought dynamics.
