Alexandra Alles

My research interests lie primarily in cognitive psychology, with a particular focus on attention and emotion. I am currently conducting research in the field of scene gist, an area that investigates the rapid perception and categorization of scenes. In my work, I typically use evaluation and reaction time experiments. In addition, I have experience with eye-tracking methods, which further enriches my understanding of attentional processes.
