Toshiki Saito, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Fellow, Waseda University
I investigate how we form impressions of others. In particular, I am interested in how we perceive the minds of others and how our internal states (e.g. loneliness) affect impression formation.
I prefer to use diverse methodologies such as eye-tracking, MRI, questionnaires, and so on.
