#introduction

Hi! I'm a cog psychologist at the Uni of Sheffield, UK, investigating individual differences in cog abilities and how they change (or even improve?!) through experience, using methods from experimental and differential cog psy, & sometimes cog neuro and comp modelling.

A major current project in our lab is a multi-site processing speed training study across the adult life-span using drift-diffusion modelling, so stay tuned!

Suppose I should have tagged @cognition @cogsci in this question about direct perception and constructivism. #CogPsy #cognition

#Introduction

Behavioral Scientist interested in #psychology & #philosophy

The two questions that have always nagged me are these; How do we motivate ourselves? And how do we know what we should motivate ourselves towards?

These questions have led me to discover so many interesting fields I am now trying to master #Rationality #Motivation #BehavioralScience #Axiology #CogPsy #Complexity #EffectiveAltruism #PhilofScience #PhilofMind

Is anyone else thoroughly confused anytime anyone argues for Direct Perception? It always seems like they are actually arguing the exact opposite of what they are saying
