Research Interests
I'm interested in research related to visual and/or auditory attention and perception. My doctoral research focussed on bilingualism
and a research area strongly affected by the replication crisis. Consequently, I developed an interest in studying bilingualism
and aspects of psychological methodology (e.g. the effect of expectations, convergent validity of tasks and performance measures).
Prior to my doctoral research, I was involved in projects related to Social Cognition, Mental Health, and Brain Imaging. This experience
continues to inform and shape my research interests today.
