Learning and Cognition
Researchers in the Learning and Cognition group seek to understand how we go about changing our behaviour in order to adapt to a changing environment.
We explore topics such as:
Why do we speak (and hear) with an accent when we learn a second language as an adult?
Researcher: Dr Michael Tyler
How are our emotional and reflexive responses modulated by our experiences and how we think about those experiences?
Researcher: Dr Gabrielle Weidemann
The role of experience in person perception.
Researcher: Dr Rachel Robbins
What kinds of cognitive processes are affected in patients with neuropsychological disorders?
Researcher: Dr Ahmed Moustafa
