Tal Yarkoni Graduate Student

"I'm a 5th year graduate student, which means I'm halfway done with my Ph.D. I like puppies, statistics, and moonlit walks on the beach. I collect mobiles, seashells, and journal rejections. Decision-making and language interest me. So do fMRI methods. (How could you not get excited about fMRI methods?) I also likes executive control, emotion, and category mistakes."

Research interests include most anything to do with the various interfaces between emotion, cognition, and personality. More specifically, current foci include emotion regulation, decision-making, and the relation of affect and personality to executive control. Current experimental projects include psychophysiological work on repressive coping, a series of studies on the effects of emotion and personality on inhibition tasks, and an investigation of the impact of cognitive and personality differences on decision-making.
