Hi, welcome to my website where you can find some
information about me & my work.
I received my BA & MA in Cognitive and Biological
Psychology from the Vrije Universiteit (Amsterdam, The
Netherlands) and received my PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience from
the University of Amsterdam.
Following my PhD, I was awarded a NWO Rubicon Scholarship to
complete a 2 year post-doc at Harvard Univerity, in Mahzarin
Banaji's <a
href="http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~banaji/"
target="_blank">Social Cognition Laboratory. Here my
research focused on the influence that (unconscious)
stereotypical knowledge has on low-level attentional processes,
memory & language perception.
Currently I am back at the University of Amsterdam, this time
at the Department of Social Psychology. Here I work together
with Kai Jonas . Our research project, funded by a fast-track
grant from the NWO Conflict & Safety Spearhead, focuses on
the causes and consequences of humiliation, both at an
individual and anintergroup context.
In my research, I use both behavioral and psychophysiological
measures (EEG & ERP).
