Marcel Pauly

I am generally interested in understanding how people perceive and react to different stimuli. I am currently investigating how self-relevant stimuli are processed cognitively, as other research findings suggest that the self-relevance of stimuli plays a special role in cognition. I mainly use reaction time experiments in my research.
