I am interested in
understanding the relationships between
culture and cognition. Specifically, I
have been studying how culture (East Asian
vs. American) shapes the way people think
and behave. Research (including some of
my own) has shown that the culture in which
we grew up affects the way we perceive,
interpret and respond to the world. I am
particularly interested in cultural impacts
on thinking and reasoning (as broadly defined),
and the implications for social cognition.
In my research, I have examined cultural
differences in attention/perception, categorization,
prediction, and judgment and decision making. |
