Cognition and Behavior Lab

Cognition and Behavior Lab, Aarhus University, conducts exciting research in the fields of perception, communication, and human behaviour.

Why did humans first start using symbols?

A part of the answer can be gleaned from the ongoing @ERC_eSYMb project, headed by @kristian_tylen. Through experiments at COBE Lab, Kristian and his collegues are currently shedding light on the evolution of early symbolic behavior 🧵⬇️

Congratulations to Lisa Stickel, who just successfully defended her PhD dissertation on consumers' implicit and explicit reaction to healthy snack products, based on experiments conducted here at the lab! @MAPPCentre @MGMTBSS @Aarhus_BSS

[Nathanael Larigaldie @NathLarigaldie]

Thanks a lot @Cobelab and @marchk! Have a read if you want to know about academic stuff I did/do, and what I think and do about other stuff 😃

If you're near Aarhus go check COBE lab's website, and whether you are or not, be sure to also take a look at Marc's research!

[Cognition and Behavior Lab @Cobelab]

Our latest Researcher Spotlight features @NathLarigaldie, who investigates the relationship between visual attention and attitudes towards real-life argumentation, such as on social media.

Read a short talk with him about his research and interests here: https://t.co/5Zflmk72H1

I am happy to share our recent paper in Behavior Research Methods to present my first published R package!

New preprint! Do men and women differ in their metacognitive sensitivity? Or is it all just confidence bias? In a new study led by @kellyhgrvrst we report substantive, domain-general gender differences across global and local measures of metacognition. https://t.co/pCcQngFNZD
