Research Interests
My research focus is on understanding basic
cognitive control abilities and how those abilities may change as
we develop into old age. The ability to control cognition by keeping
relevant information active in working memory, elaborating on that
information in relevant ways, and isolating it from interfering
thoughts can be measured within the range of cognitive domains.
My research has examined these control abilities in an eye movement
task, in memory using a false memory task and in prospective memory.
