Eyetracking

 

Research Description

My research focuses on identifying factors and mechanisms that affect the magnitude of forgetting and exploring ways to use eye-tracking as an implicit measurement to investigate recognition memory of face with different racial identities. I aim to answer questions such as whether people have differential ability to forget own-race and other-race faces and whether relational memory is affected by faces with different races and other attributes.
