Kristina Krasich & Anna Ghelfi present “Mental Control and Effort Differ Across Different Kinds of Mental Action”

A visual task tested
- relationships between perceived control & effort (positive correlation)
- whether they differ for seemingly passive or active activities(no)
- more

Collaborators: Samuel Murray, Felipe De Brigard, & Joshua Shepard

#introduction

Hi fedifolks 👋

I am a postdoc at #UQ #Psychology, but will be heading to #UNSW in February to set up a lab of my very own.

I am interested in how #learning shapes #attention and #cognitivecontrol, with a focus on understanding the #computational and #neural underpinnings of #learningtransfer and why we often suck at doing two things at once.

Always up for a cup of tea and a chat about #statistics, #openscience or how we need to overthrow our current publishing model.

Crosspost from birdsite: new #research led by Dr. Ceci Westbrook published in Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science (formerly Journal of Abnormal Psychology).

We examined the #neural correlates of mindful disengagement from #worry using #fMRI. Focused attention exercises were most effective for helping participants disengage from worry and required less engagement of #CognitiveControl regions.
