Dr. Tullett’s research focuses on how people make sense of the world. This general fascination has manifested itself in two main lines of research, one focusing on the belief systems that people use to organize the world, and the other focusing on how people come to understand the feelings and thoughts of others. To explore these issues the lab employs a social neuroscience approach, using neuroscientific, psychophysiological, self-report, and behavioral measures in an attempt to obtain a comprehensive understanding of social psychological phenomena.
