They gave advice on how to get involved in research ig the .,,d, what they expect in a research assistant in order to disprove the notion of the "impossible research position. " more e that :year. &esearch Focuses: large Dr. Kirwan: My research focuses on learning and Dr. Slife: I do mostly theoretical research, meaning I memory. I'm particularly interested in what determines answer questions that have to do with assumptions un­ what we'll remember and what we'll forget. I use EEG, derlying psychotherapy. Right now, I'm working on two ,have f.MRI, studies with patients with brain damage, and cog­ lines of thought. One is "what would psychology be if it :very llitive studies with healthy younger adults (undergrads) as was based on the assumption that God really matters?". If nore, well as with healthy older adults. we made a different assumption, how would psychother­ nany apy be different? How would our research be different? Dr. Larson: The lab primarily looks at how people How would our study of human behavior be different process their environment, like how you react when you if we made different assumptions that are more consis­ make an error, how you react when someone else makes tent with Christianity? The other line of thought I do is ttwe an error and you are watching them and then how you called 'relationality,'which is the notion that our relation­ change your behavior. We look at everything from Ob­ ships are more important than anything else. If we made sessive Compulsive Disorder to Traumatic Brain Injury that assumption, how would that change psychology? My rthe ., help determine how people process their environment work is to look at the foundations of the discipline and to compare them with things that a lot of us care about, like 1 the l,cner. Christianity, and to say psychology is on the right track. Dr. Miller: I have several emphases in my research. In pigeon research, I am focusing on relative value of gains Dr. Yamawaki: I am conducting research about per­ rnsor • losses in choice procedures. I investigate multiple pro­ ceptions of attitudes towards victims of violence against lthe adures and various parameters in order to create a math­ women, such as domestic violence and rape; and I do that les. anatical module of choice. I am hoping to soon begin research cross-culturally. Another topic that I research is ,work with rats that will focus on choice as well, but more "attitudes towards mental health services" because a lot of :heir .. abdy-in the sense oflocal effects within a pattern ofbe­ victims tend not to seek help, I also do it cross-culturally. larior. The focus in our human research is twofold: first, I am also very interested in individualism and collectiv­ claoice that is distributed over time in uncertain contexts ism; I am creating a scale and from now on I will use ad the relative values of gains and losses therein.
