Social Punishment

Social Reward

My PhD…

…Is concerned with the psychological and neurobiological mechanisms of social reward and punishment processing.

Individual differences investigated with reference to relevant personality variables such as altruistic tendencies, attachment style and the broad autism phenotype.Slide3

The Project

Dr Marcel Meyer

Dr Meyer's work investigates the cognitive, physiological, and neurobiological mechanisms associated with emotion regulation via compassion-focussed and benefit-focussed reappraisals.

Research on emotion regulation and reappraisal has not been within the scope of my PhD; however individual differences in these are likely to be highly relevant to several of my findings

.Slide7

During the course of my PhD I had made some incidental findings pertaining to several levels of analysis in understanding social dispositions, with particular emphasis on how social motives might relate to individualism and collectivism. 

An exciting opportunity to investigate

these results further became available via collaboration on a project run by Dr Marcel Meyer at the Swiss Centre for Affective Sciences. ln this collaborative project we extended the scope of the earlier studies, by investigating the role of emotion-regulation strategies.

This project also employed thermography: high-resolution thermal imaging which can be used to measure minute fluctuations in temperature in the human body. We are investigating links between three 'levels', or aspects, of warmth:- physiological (using thermography)

- affective (emotion regulation via reappraisal)

- interpersonal/social (social dispositions, collectivism).

Naëm

Technical

Staff

I got my engineering degree in 2010 at ESIEA with a specialization in Virtual Reality (VR) and I have worked within the field of VR and industry before joining the Swiss

Center

for Affective Science. Since 2011, I am in charge of the development of VR in the research subjects conducted in the Brain and

Behavior

Laboratory, operating on a high end immersive system : the BBL-IS. This system provides a high level of immersion to simulate and control a wide variety of situations with multiple stimulations (facial expressions,

olfactive

, HRTF sounds) and recording (physiological sensors, eye-tracker, body-tracker, video) capabilities.

My role is to manage the BBL-IS and to support the researchers by developing the VR applications and the hardware for their experiments.Slide11
