Experimental cognitive psychology

The research group is concerned with basic research in the field of cognitive psychology (including perception and emotion), on the one hand, and with applied questions such as the influence of tablets and e-learning tools on cognitive processing on the other hand. The eye-tracking method is also applied in many studies, as this enables interesting access to the spatial and temporal resolution of cognitive processes.
