Biografie

I'm interested in the development of social cognition and how we develop an understanding of what another person is thinking and feeling. By better understanding how these processes develop, can we help people improve their understanding of others? For my thesis I'm using eye tracking and behavioural methods to investigate the development of facial expression recognition.
