The "Cognition and Integrated Action" (CIA) laboratory is housed on the 4th floor of the Psychology Building. Graduate students in the lab work with me to develop empirical research that is quite diverse, but centers around capturing dynamics of cognition within and between people: We use fine-grained temporal signatures, such as real-time action or time-series analyses of language behavior.
