Biography

I am a graduate student at the University of Amsterdam and pursuing a major in Clinical Psychology with a minor in Methodology and Statistics. Alongside my masters I work as a research and teaching assistant at the University of Amsterdam and the University of Oxford. Current projects examine cognitive correlates of psychopathic personality traits.

All Psychopathy Other
Socio-economic decision-making and psychopathy
This meta-analytic review summarises the literature on socio-economic decision-making and psychopathic traits, elucidating the decision-making processes of psychopathic individuals.
Action slips and habitual behaviour
Action slips are errors that involve some kind of cognitive laps and result in unintended actions. The present project investigates the role of action slips in the persistence of habits.
Associative learning as a function of stimulus multidimensionality
This project investigates the superficial processing of complex stimuli and subsequent effects for the formation of stimulus-outcome associations of psychopathic individuals. This study is one of several assessing the response modulation hypothesis of psychopathy.
Developmental trajectory of habits
Longitudinal research into the process of habit formation. This large-scale replication effort is conducted with our collaborators at the University of Amsterdam, Cambridge, Helsinki, and Konstanz.
Impaired integration and psychopathic learning
An investigation of the Impaired Integration theory of psychopathy and multidimensional stimuli processing of psychopathic individuals.
Online webcam-based eye-tracking
An investigation of the suitability of online webcam-based eye-tracking for empirical research and applied contexts. The present project assesses online webcam-based eye-tracking across a range of experimental paradigms.
