I work on metacognition in general, and in motor metacognition in particular. I am interested in how we can best measure the brain’s ability to monitor and control itself. In the case of motor metacognition, I also wonder how this ability interacts with our ability to learn a new motor skill. I use mostly behavioural methods, but also sometimes use neuroimaging (EEG/MRI).
On an independent line, I am also excited about the possibilities of collecting data online.

I’m a cognitive (experimental) psychologist with passion for methodology and statistics. My past research was concerned with how individuals learn to protect themselves from danger. To this end, I pursued the idea that individuals estimate the risk of harm using a ‘cognitive map’ of their environment built from multiple separate learning episodes acquired in safety on the one hand, and minimal aversive experience on the other.
At the Hector Research Institute for Education Sciences and Psychology I work as a postdoctoral researcher and continue studying fundamental aspects of memory but in a naturalistic setting with the aim to better elucidate on how we learn and remember.

I am a postdoc at the Hector Institute with a background in experimental psychology. I am interested in why people value sensory experiences and how those in turn motivate their behaviors. My research combines psychological experiments with computational modeling. At the Hector Institute I want to use this approach to better understand intrinsic motivation, boredom, and curiosity in the context of education.

I am a post-doc at the Hector Research Institute of Education Sciences and Psychology. In my research, I investigate the development of dispositional interests over the course of adolescence. Besides mechanisms that can facilitate long-term change processes in interests, I am also examining statistical methods for modelling longitudinal data and their ability to account for unobserved confounders when estimating causal effects.
Lab Coordinator
ed.negnibeut-inu@ppoh.leunam Orcid Profile Research Gate LinkedIn
My expertise lies in the field of (social) network analyses in the context of educational psychology. My current research interests focus on understanding domain-specific curiosity, social integration of gifted students and functional brain networks of gifted students. As the lab organizer, I am responsible for ensuring smooth and efficient operations within our research team.

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Hector Research Institute for Education Science and Psychology at the University of Tübingen working in the field of developmental neuroscience with a focus on intellectually gifted children. My interest lies in how the spatial organization of the cerebral cortex subserves learning and cognition in the human brain. To this end, I pursue questions about the developmental mechanisms by which the spatial arrangement of functions may emerge in the cerebral cortex, and its ramifications for cognitive abilities.

I am a post-doc at the Hector Institute of Educational Sciences and Psychology. I am working towards an algorithmic- and computational-level understanding of various aspects of human exploration, including the emergence of situational curiosity as motivation for information-seeking, emergence of interest and curiosity traits, generation, selection, and pursuit of goals. My hope is to develop knowledge that can be useful in educational contexts. I rely on theory-driven statistical/cognitive modeling to explain data collected in behavioral experiments.
PhD Students
ed.negnibeut-inu@esmaharba.stam
I am a PhD candidate at the Hector Research Institute for Education Science and Psychology. My primary interests revolve around curiosity, motivation, and other constructs related to them. My goal is to explore the underlying mechanisms behind these phenomena. Specifically, my current project focuses on how curiosity evolves across the lifespan and on identifying the variables influencing this change.

My research focuses on identifying and testing strategies to boost individuals’ motivation for learning. Prior to starting my PhD, I did my Masters in Neural and Behavioural Sciences at the University of Tübingen.

I am interested in social factors, e.g. interactions with teachers and peers, causing motivated or unmotivated behaviors in pupils. I approach this research primarily by conducting secondary analyses of large-scale datasets. I see the goal of my research in providing information that can be used to create interventions to increase student motivation. I like to also address psychometric research questions.

I am a PhD student at the Hector Research Institute for Education Science and Psychology at the University of Tübingen. My project will focus on how mental health issues and their implications on motivation and emotion impact our ability to achieve our goals. Some of my interests revolve around self-regulation and self-regulated learning as well as educational psychology.

I am a PhD student at the Hector Research Institute for Education Sciences and Psychology at the University of Tübingen. My project will focus on the neuroscientific perspective on learning processes of gifted primary children. Overall, I am interested in educational neuroscience to investigate how children learn by using physiological data.

As a PhD student at the Hector Research Institute of Educational Science and Psychology, I investigate the role of metacognition in motor skill acquisition, particularly in guitar playing. My research explores open questions relevant in music education by integrating cognitive science and educational methodologies.
